I've tried to trawl through previous/current threads to see if this is already covered but there's just so many posts, sorry.
Currently getting fertility treatment with letrozole 2.5mg (lowest dose) for PCOS. My cycles when not on meds can be up to 82 days.
Cycle 1 of letrozole - confirmed ov by bloods, 30 day cycle.
Cycle 2 of letrozole - no bloods done (that's the clinic policy), 29 day cycle.
Cycle 3 of letrozole - no period yet (currently cycle day 43, BFN). Had 42 day bloods which confirmed I've ov'd with levels of 37, but they don't know when the ov was. The nurse phoned me and said that regardless of my cycle length, as long as I've ov'd they are not gonna change my meds. I've to continue for another 4 cycles and not to come for any other bloods. I'm absolutely baffled and devastated that they are contemplating leaving me with long irregular cycles and reduced chances of conceiving. I thought, and was told by the consultant when I stated treatment, that they wanted me ovulating regularly and frequently for the best chance. Now a nurse tells me my cycle length is irrelevant as long as I'm confirmed to ov. HOW can they eave me in the same position as I was in before treatment, with long cycles, never knowing if I'm gonna ovulate in 2 weeks or 4 weeks, and having to have sex all the time for weeks on end which is really tough for us as we are shift workers on conflicting shifts. I just feel like there's no point even taking the bloody meds now and I'm dreading another long cycle when this one finally ends. Has anyone ever heard of this happening? I've just gone so negative now and struggling really badly.
