I have just been through a failed 2nd attempt at IVF, following a successful attempt in 2013 (we have a nearly two year old daughter.)
This time round I had my embryo transfer last Sunday but on Friday night my period started and I've been bleeding very heavily since. We have sadly accepted the fact that it hasn't worked :-( Clinic are still making me test next Sunday and told me to keep up the progesterone gel.
I have to say I was really surprised that my period came while still on the crinone gel, and particularly that it came so soon (6 days after ET) Will need to ask doctors why this might have been, anyone else had a heavy bleed so early in two week wait?
I just wondered if people who've been through this before could tell me how long they bled for and then when their period came the following month? Hard to know how soon things will get back to "normal".
