For those of you who have done more then one IVF cycle, do you recommend taking a month off? Just looking for some feedback. And from the sound of it each cycle you produce different embryo quallity which is encouraging. My body feels ready to start another cycle thankfully other then a few lbs I didn’t notice any other symptoms from all the meds. Is here so I guess that’s good news. I just hope I don’t get any worse news tomorrow from my Dr….

Hi there,
After my first failed IVF, I tried to push to cycle again the very next month and my RE said no. He said that he has never personally seen a good outcome (or one that lasts) from back to back fresh cycles. So we took one month off and cycled in March/April instead of February/March and we got our BFP with that cycle. I had poor embryo quality by day five with my first cycle (on day three they looked great) so we transferred on day three the second time around and that was our magic ticket.
So, while I know it is hard to wait yet ANOTHER month, my recommendation would be to go with what your RE says or give your body a month to recover before starting all over again. Just my two cents!
