How many transfers did it take you to become pregnant ? (IVF)

Question

I’m a single mom with unexplained infertility. I had 12 failed IUIs. One failed fresh IVF transfer and 2 failed FETs. I still have 4 embryos.

Answer

Single momma also! 🙋‍♀️ I got pregnant on my first FET. I had done 5 IUIs that all failed.  For my first kid, I got pregnant on my 5th IUI, donor sperm.

Answer

Our first IVF we did a fresh with the 1 embryo we had and got our son.  2 years later we did another full cycle got 2 and transferred both, neither took.  Another year later did another full cycle and got 5.  Did a fresh with 1 and froze 4.  After the fresh didn’t take again they stopped to do alternate testing and found out mild endometriosis that I didn’t have with my first and they never noticed because it was so mild was the issue...we were able to treat it then did a frozen transfer and are now 28 weeks.  
With your history I’d get a 2nd opinion.  While they say unexplained, have they ruled out everything?  There are so many things that could cause a failed transfer I’d be sure they ruled out something with your body’s acceptance of the embryo before going thru another transfer and risking loosing another embryo.  Good luck!

Answer

Good luck! I would maybe try researching other RE’s in your area and have some consultations...I follow a couple on Instagram that was TTC for 8 years and went through multiple RE’s and multiple rounds of IVF but are now pregnant. Sometimes you just have to find the right doctor (and have a bit of luck).
