Can I do Medicated FETs Back-To-Back?

I mean literally, can I do an FET in mid-November and then another straightaway in mid-December if unsuccessful on a medicated protocol? And then potentially another in mid-January? Are there disadvantages to doing this?

Hi, this will likely be down to your clinics policy.

My clinic want a withdrawal bleed from the FET failing and then you can start on your next regular period. So the FETs are therefore spaced about 2 months apart.

Thank you. Presumably if you do natural FETs though, you can try again straightaway the following cycle?

Hence I’m thinking of asking to switch to natural.

Sorry not sure on the naturally FET as haven't done one. I'm guessing if no medication at all was involved then they would allow back to back if you felt you wanted to and up to doing it.

Thanks. I’ve now asked to switch to natural. I’ve mentioned wanted to do back-to-back cycles as one of the reasons and they haven’t said that’s not possible (so I’m guessing it surely is?).

I do medicated FETs. My clinic don't allow back to back cycles, they like a withdrawal bleed in between x
