uterine polyp and FET? Success stories?

[ttcsolomumtobe]

I'm on CD12 of my FET and it has been noticed there's a possible polyp, this is fairly high up, closer to the fallopian tube.

It's 6.5mm and I've been given the choice to go ahead with FET or cancel and have hystoscopy. Clinic have to advise you of it but anything under 1cm they can still continue with a transfer.

Just wondered if there was any success stories?

Bit of background for context

Re polyps I'm a bit at my wit's end with it because a few years ago I was sent to have some removed and they weren't there when the procedure went ahead. Mid last year I had some removed, which were super painful as I believe it was a student nurse doing it.

My clinic I was doing IUI with thought the marking left was a scar from the procedure, all 3 IUIs failed.

At a new clinic, they had no concerns around the "marking" but just before egg collection they advised it could be a polyp, did a saline scan to find it was a fold so day 3 fresh went ahead, was not successful

Polyp/marking has not been mentioned in any of my follow up calls or even my scan on Friday but today it was discussed. The 2D scan now shows it as 6.5 (was 5.5 2 months ago) and there looks to be a feeder vessel. I've been offered another saline scan before deciding next steps.

Think I'm more gutted by the time wasted as cancelled my NHS appointment for hystoscopy and all the energy and planning that's gone into this, it's exhausting.

I really feel for you. I’ve been in this boat. Whilst ttc, a polyp was discovered which I had hoped was the reason I wasn’t getting pregnant. Sadly not. Started IVF at the beginning of this year, started stims and another polyp was found! Mine was bigger than yours so I got it removed under local as the clinic advised me to do this. When I spoke to the consultant who removed the polyp he said it’s difficult to decide whether it could have effected implantation as if the transfer had failed, you would blame the polyp. I think I would be slightly influenced by how many embryos I had available after my EC. As yours is quite high up I think it’s less risky but I know it’s super hard. I’m sorry you’re in this position, I know it’s so hard and frustrating.

Thank you for your reply.

Yea it's defo just so hard, as you say that wondering if "did it not work because of the polyp".

I have 2 embryo's, so hard to think of losing one but also it's all the months that will be lost waiting on the hystoscopy and clinics won't keep doing hystoscopies if polyps return and are smaller than 1cm so people must have success with them, just hard to find that information
