Messed up my ivf cycle

i was due to have a FET in 5 days time, but I stupidly took the progesterone too early and now my cycle is cancelled. I’m soo angry with myself and stressed. I can go again next cycle so I know it’s not the end of the world but this will be my third try and I’m so desperate for this to work move on from this hell of TTC. Can anyone tell me a benefits to waiting that extra few weeks, just to get me in a positive mindset again. I was so ready for this one and the waiting again is a killer.

@dancingmonkey I am so sorry your FET got cancelled, I had an egg collection cancelled earlier this year and was so upset at the time. This ivf/infertility journey is so so hard. Have they said you can start straight away next month? I know it hard but just try to use the time to relax, eat well & not to stress so you are in the best position to start again. Wishing you lots of luck x

I'm so sorry. I had 3 FETs cancelled last year, it takes a real toll on your mental health ❤️ try not to be hard on yourself.
I found my period usually came within 3 days of stopping the progesterone, so hopefully you can get started on your next FET in a week or so.

thankyou for your response, I’ve been told I can’t just stop meds. I have to continue till the 25th, wait for period and start again. Did you get your happy ending? X

Yes works out next transfer will be around the 17th November, you’d think after years of waiting and hoping your get used to it but I was soo close! And it hurts more I was completely unavoidable and my own mistake.

@dancingmonkey ❤️❤️

No happy ending for us yet sadly. Due to start a 3 cycle package in December as no embryos left.

It is better to take the meds so your cycle isn't disrupted. Hope it goes well xx
