I've been having treatments for over 3 years that have all failed now, including 2 previous frozen transfers.
This time, I had my last 2 embryos transferred. I've tested today at 6dp5dt (I know still early, but so many seem to have at least a faint positive by now) and clear bfn. Can't help but think with everything else that's failed and now a negative at this stage, I'm already out and something is clearly wrong that's been missed.
Did anyone have bfn after FET this early and go on to have bfp?
If not, what further tests did people have after multiple failed transfers?
Thanks in advance. Hope someone can help!

It's so hard to know. I tested at 9dp5dt and my positive was pretty faint. I'm almost certain there wouldn't have been anything there if i'd tested 3 days earlier. I would say it's too early to know conclusively either way. Will keep my fingers crossed for you, this journey is so tough x

@MGee123 thank you so much for your reply. Hope that pregnancy went/is going well. Keeping my fingers crossed x

It might be worth having a Hysterosalpingogram if you haven’t already had one. It lets the gynae know of your tubes are functional. All the best.

@vincettenoir thanks for your reply! I have had one of those and it showed everything was fine. Getting concerned now as everything appears to be fine, but I just think something must be amiss because of all the failed treatments

6dp5dt is really early. 11 dpo! Hang in there

@AliceAbsolum thank you 🤞🏼 I think I read too much into others experiences. I'm still hopeful obviously, just not feeling too optimistic given previous fails

Hi,

It is a bit too early to test. Don't get defeated and hang in there!Have you had a hysteroscopy done? How about progesterone before transfer? How thick was the lining?

I did the following tests: extended immune testing(bloods), hysteroscopy, extended thrombophilia and antiphospholipidic syndrome tests, hormone levels, lining and uterine scans before each FET or FET attempts. (Not sure how these tests are named in UK, I am not from there). After 2 failed FETs, we have only one embryo left and and we cancelled a few tries because of fluid in the uterus and cyst, thin lining, suspected fibroid or low progesterone before transfer. Also, even though all my tests were normal, we are throwing in everything for the next transfer: prednisone, intralipids, clexane, probiotics both orally and vaginally, progesterone shots and pessaries.

Good luck! 🍀

@Yuliaaa thank you! Was still negative yesterday, so not too hopeful but not going to test again now until the wknd.
Yes, I've had that done and all tubes clear and everything looked fine.
Lining is always good and triple pattern.
Don't believe I've had a progesterone test.
Wish you the best for your next FET with your remaining embryo. Hopefully it's the one for you 🤞🏼 x
