Question 1

twinges after embryo transfer, should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Generally you would like an embryo transfer to go without any bleeding, cramping or discomfort; however, a few twinges should not generally effect the success of the transfer and subsequent implantation rates.  I would suggest that you be on intramuscular Progesterone injections to quiet your uterus and to give you the maximum chance for implantation and a successful pregnancy.  Good luck.

Question 2

gas after embryo transfer is normal?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Probably should not have gas after an embryo transfer but if you were anxious leading up to the procedure, which is completely understandable and expected, you might have done a little month breathing and got some extra air in your stomach that you are now passing.  I would not worry to much.  Good luck and i hope this helps.

Question 3

are cramps normal after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

Yes: As the uterus grows "stretching" pains/cramps become more common.

Question 4

white discharge after embryo transfer is normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The discharge you are describing is normal vaginal discharge.  Make sure that it does not have an odor and does not itch and/or irritating because that could mean it could be a vaginal infection.  Hope this helps.

Question 5

can i test pregnancy on day 9 after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

Follow your clinic: Your doctor and ivf clinic most likely gave you instructions when to come in for a blood pregnancy test. You should follow their instructions. It is not a good idea to test on your own.

Question 6

should i be taking antihistamine after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: There is no significant data to suggest that they would be beneficial to improving success rates.  Good luck.

Question 7

what does a clear discharge after embryo transfer mean?

Accepted Answer

Probably nothing: Absolutely nothing. If you are worried, call your ivf doctor promptly.

Question 8

i have brown spots after embryo transfer is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Probably: Can't promise it is normal, but it is very common. If you are worried talk with your ivf doc.

Question 9

11 days after embryo transfer, what should the hcg lvl be?

Accepted Answer

Greater than 5: To be pregnant. 'how' high depends on how many embryos were transferred, and at what stage (multicell, blast), among other things.

Question 10

what causes progesterone to drop few days after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

No cause: There's no reason for Progesterone to drop following et, but levels definitely will fluctuate. As long as they are within a (pretty wide) range, they are okay. In most et cycles, supplemental Progesterone is given - you don't say in yours. The dosing is adjusted to keep the levels in range.
