Natural fet?

Anyone had one of these? Did u have it with trigger and how do they work!
Would an era be done if you want a natural fet ? My consultant suggested it to me when we were planning a medication but I’m wondering if I should have a natural for various reasons

My clinic didn't believe in ERA unless you've had multiple failed transfers. I did 4 transfers and all of them were natural FET. I preferred it as was sick of drugs by that point. I did the trigger shot with them just to make doubly sure on ovulation timings and clinic was happy to give me it. Also I read somewhere having hcg in your system from the shot can increase success rates

Thanks @ivfbeenbusy

Not convinced with the ETA either but had 2 failed FET so they suggested this. Though I’m pretty sure they failed due to my section scar...(which I’m looking into fixing)

Can I ask if you took any supplementary progesterone after the trigger? And what monitoring u had before trigger to know when ovulation was? Thanks!

Hiya, I had a successful natural FET with trigger shot. No ERA. No supplementary progesterone required. I had 1 scan from memory in lead up to ovulation.

I'd had a failed fresh transfer in the January (tested feb) and was pregnant with the natural fet by April.

I have to frozen embryos and would like to try for another and have been looking into doing another natural cycle.

Good luck hun c
