Question 1

should i have a heavy period after failed ivf?

Accepted Answer

Often yes: It's common to have a heavy period after ivf due to the thickened uterine lining that occurs with fertility drug stimulation. I'm sorry to hear it didn't work for you; most of my patients conceive on their first ivf cycle...

Question 2

how long after failed ivf will period start?

Accepted Answer

Generally in 10 days: Since many clinics are doing day 5 or blastocyst transfers, pregnancy tests are done 9 days later.  If negative, you should start bleeding around that time; and if you are on Progesterone supplementation, you will either breakthrough Progesterone or bleed  within 3-5 of stopping it.  Good luck.  Hope this helps.

Question 3

do period gets delayed due to ivf?

Accepted Answer

Generally not: Generally, since the timing is so precise when you do ivf, most clinics will do blood pregnancy tests 9 days after a day 5 or blastocyst transfer.  If implantation occurred, the test should be positive at that point.  Hope this helps.

Question 4

when would i start my period after doing ivf?

Accepted Answer

After progesterone: If the ivf is unsuccessful, it is likely the period will start between 2 weeks after retrieval and a within a week of when you stop the Progesterone supplements.

Question 5

after a failed ivf cycle when do you get your period?

Accepted Answer

Soon: Usually within 3-5 days of stopping medications. Sometimes it can take a little longer. Periods is usually a little heavier than normal as well.

Question 6

can you start ivf 2 right after first period of bfn of ivf 1?

Accepted Answer

Yes: If you still have frozen embryo, you may do FET immediately in the following cycle. If you do not have frozen embryo, you may also do mini ivf or natural cycle ivf immediately without  break.

Question 7

after failure ivf and stopping progesteron, when i can get period and how much time should i wait before trying another round ivf?

Accepted Answer

Ask your RE doc: Most women will get a period within 2-7 days of stopping Progesterone after a failed ivf. Most re's will want you to wait at least one cycle (meaning the next period that comes after the period you get 2-7 days after stopping progesterone) before you try another round of ivf, but some feel differently, and there is no clear right approach. Sorry you're in this position, but good luck next time!

Question 8

i had failed ivf , tested negative, transfer was 1.5 month ago. i stopped drugs then too. still had no withdraw bleeding or period. why? worried

Accepted Answer

Disappointing!: Hard to give a clear answer without any information about you (age, menstrual history, any dates or info about IVF cycle) but there can be many reasons for NOT starting after unsuccessful IVF that are not to worry about. Often in a fresh cycle there may be residual ovarian cysts that can delay cycle start. You should contact your IVF doctor for more information, good wishes.

Question 9

how long after failed ivf will my period come?

Accepted Answer

Within 1 to 5 days: Once you stop your meds  you should start bleeding. If this does not happen within a few days of stopping your hormones please call your doctor.

Question 10

i am looking to start on a course for dhea after a failed ivf.  anything i should avoid during this period and how bad are the side effects?

Accepted Answer

Not much info: This is a controversal medication to use for fertility since its not available made by a commerical pharmaceutical company, you find it in health food stores or compounded. There are no good studies that show an improvement in pregnancy rates, and many mds around the country do not use it.
