Medicated FET - how does ovulation/ transfer timing work?

I’m gearing up for a medicated FET in my next cycle but I’m not sure if the process. From day 2 I start tablets to regulate my lining thickness.

But I’m not sure what happens with ovulation? Do they wait for it to happen naturally then transfer the embryo five days after?

If anyone has done it I’d be grateful to know more. Thank you.

Hello,

It depends on your protocol but I had a medicated FET with just oestrogen pills then progesterone and they didn't ever check for natural ovulation, which after everything I'd read seemed odd! I ended up not ovulating due to the oestrogen anyway and pushed for more progesterone as there was therefore no corpus luteum to produce any, and got my first ever BFP on first frozen FET at 3.5 days last transfer! It's my OTD today and lines are strong :) good luck with your transfer, its so much more relaxed to have a FET than stim and then a fresh one I found x

I'm having FET in January if all goes to plan, with a single high-dose decapeptyl shot which I think suppresses the ovulation so they can build the lining up for longer. Maybe best to ask your clinic?
