Good morning everyone. So I POAS again this morning. I'm keeping FRED brand. I did (again) see a really really really faint line. I had an extra ANSWER test (which I understand is less sensitive) and I did that one to and that is all but negative (I may be able to see "something" if I hold it to a lightbulb).
So, I'm not really sure what to think. In my heart I'm pretty sure it's a chemical, but I'm going to go day by day and I will certainly test again tomorrow. My Beta is not until next tuesday. Have a great day everyone. I'm going to try to check in this afternoon. Tara.

Estrogen Level Question
I had my ET on May 30th. I had blood drawn today to check my estrogen and progesterone. My progesterone was fine but the RE Nurse said I needed to increase my estrogen from one patch every 72 hours to 3 patches every 72 hours.
What does this mean? Have any of you had to increase your estrogen after an ET? I am really worried because this makes me think that my body is not producing the hormones properly because I may have lost my little ones. Your thoughts are appreciated.

I posted on the other threads but thought to post here too. My second beta came back and it was 15 which is terrible... The nurse said that there isn't much hope that this is a viable pregnancy. I'm am so sad - I really had my hopes up which I try not to do....

Thnk it might finally be a real BFP
Quote:
Ladies, I have been obsessing for days about my faint lines and then fainter lines. This afternoon, however, the line was a bit darker and I did a Clear Blue Easy Digitial and got a BFP. I am cautiously optimistic and I am sad to say I will probably POAS many more times between now and my Beta on Tuesay .. which can't get here soon enough. Tara.

Stephanie--I am not on any estragen post ET. I think it 's a good thing they checked your levels early. I would try not to worry.
Update: I have one last PIO shot tomorrow!! Wahoo!! then I will be officially on the Crinone (aka nasty vag gel) only for Progesterone. I have the worst knots now on my tush it is terrible. Looking forward to being able to sleep again on my back and sides once my tush returns to normal. Third beta is Monday!! I need all your prayers. |

Endometrin
Is anyone else on Endomemtrin? It's a vag suppository. I take it 3 times a day, and I am a little concerned that some of it is leaking out. (sorry if that's a little gross)
Thanks!

I am on it too and I asked my nurse about the leaking. She said that some leakage is expected thats why they have me wearing pantyliners too. I am on the same dose you are (100mg 3x/day) and she said at that high a dose it is okay to have some leakage- your body will absorb what it needs. Annoying isnt it? I prefer it to PIO though.

Thanks Kelly
Thanks for helping me feel better about the Endometrin, Kelly. Pads are certainly helpful. This is my 4th IVF, and I used PIO in the past. I still have shots twice a week though, but those are Estradiol Valerate.
When is your beta?
