I’ve just come off of my first egg retrieval 5 days ago and while I was fine that I can’t do a fresh transfer due to risk of OHSS, I was under the impression that I could start the process for a FET after my period as my body would normalise. At no time did he suggest we could only start after 2 periods until after the retrieval. I ended up getting my period early - day 5 after the retrieval. I went in for checks anyways and the doctor was very pessimistic even pre scan about starting the process due to possibility of cysts and after we convinced him to do a scan to check my condition, there were indeed big cysts and he scoffed, almost knowingly and basically suggesting we wasted our time. We have to wait until my next period to go in again. Have to cancel a holiday to start the process again next month, when who knows when my period will start.

My question is, how many more delays can we expect in the worst case scenario? I just want to stop getting my hopes up. It’s incredibly frustrating when expectations don’t align and I just want a baby.
