FET - what to expect

That's it really.

I have had one IVF cycle that produced DS and 2 frozen embryos. We are going to go back in a couple of months to have them thawed.

Infertility all me - no period/ovulation.

Just wondered what to expect. My guess is northisterone (sp?) for a bleed and then what? IVF-wise I had buserelin nasal spray for a month and then puregon injections for several weeks. I am assuming buserelin and then something to thicken the endometrium?

TIA.

Depends on the clinic but we'd give you buserelin then oestrogen tablets to thicken the womb lining, and finally progesterone pessaries to ripen the lining before transfer.
Really straightforward. Our patients have 4 visits in total with visit 4 being for the replacement. Good luck

Yes, that was exactly the protocol I had freelance. The buserelin was really annoying as my last cycle had been a short one without it. I felt unwell and it seemed to take forever. I'd taken buserelin before and was fine do it was galling!

Thanks!

Bureserelin was the worst part for me last time - fatigue and headaches like I have never had.

Thanks for the best wishes!
