Blood thinner/inhixa after egg retrieval

Could I ask if you were advised to take blood thinner after egg retrieval (on the day of)? I had mine this morning and the instruction was you can restart until you get your period but then stop. But I don't know if it was restart today or tomorrow.

Can you call the clinic to confirm? Do they have an out of hours number? Everyone is on a different protocol so I would check what they want you to do

I was given clexane after my egg retrieval but that was for OHSS risk with the intention to do a frozen transfer a few months after. I took it the next day for 5 days and then my period started. The clinic said it would start 5 days after and it did like clockwork

Thanks so much. I have a number to text and waiting for a response.

Did you say that you took it from the day after (not the day of)?

And did you stop it when your period arrived?

Thanks so much

Yes took it from the day after. I stopped when period arrived and they said it would arrive in exactly 5 days, it did! Hope you got a reply xx
