Waiting for FET... Not ovulating

[melissa1215]

Hi all,

Posted here quite a bit, first time IVF'er on my first cycle. I had to have my embryos frozen and I'm waiting to have a transfer, I'm on day 13 of my cycle, as this is my first period since the ivf and withdrawal bleed and I've been told to test ovulation every day from day 10

I use clear blue advanced digital and clear blue regular digital. I've been getting flashy smilies but not got my solid smiley and I'm so frustrated

Prior to ivf my cycles were completely regular 28 days and we have male factor infertility, the whole thing is making me upset. Had a massive argument with my fiancé about it too. Testing and it getting results makes me feel just as bad as getting negative pregnancy tests when we were TTC

Anyone had this happen to them?

@melissa1215 sorry to hear you're going through a tough time.

This hasn't happened to me - I'm only just starting down the ivf route (hopefully we'll start mid October) but didn't want to read and run!

Hopefully you'll get your solid smiley in the next day or so... do you know what day you usually ovulate? X

Hi @melissa1215 I totally get this, am on the august thread with you and having a very similar experience!

Male factor and starting the short protocol as soon as my period arrives but I didn't ovulate until day 20 this month 🤦‍♀️

Why??? I'm soooo frustrated! My period should have started Tuesday and I could be on day 3 of the injections but instead im waiting. That has literally never happened before, I bet I couldn't ovulate that late again if I tried 🤬 not impressed and really hope this isn't a sign of how this is going to go for me!

@IVFaugust2018 it's horrible isn't it? I'm still not ovulating, I'm dreading even testing because I just feel rejection :(
