Hi Ladies.
I have just started my first IVF cycle and was wondering if anyone could help me with a question regarding my period cycle as I have no idea what to expect.
So I started down regs on Saturday, which was day 21 of my own cycle. I usually have a 28/29 day cycle so the clinic said to expect my period as normal.
But, I am then due to have an endo scratch and start stimms on March 4th, with the proposed egg retrieval scheduled for March 20th and then egg transfer around March 23rd. If all of the scans are to plan and I do have the EC and ET done it will be approximately 4/5 days before my next period due date, which should be around March 28th.
So, the question is - should I have that period as normal or not. If it does come on time, does that mean that the IVF cycle has failed. If it doesn't come does that mean it has worked?
This maybe a really obvious question!
Any help/ advice you could give me would be greatly received?
P.S can I take co-codamol during down regs for this headache?
Thanks so much xx
