Thank you everyone for your support through my BFN news yesterday.
I am still extremely disappointed and angry about my first IVF not working however I am feeling better and looking forward to my next cycle. I talked to a nurse today and she is moving my beta to tomorrow rather than Thursday so that they can confirm the BFN and take me off the progesterone. AF is here full force so I know the beta will confirm what I already know. The nurse also told me that I could start a frozen cycle right away. My protocol will be taking estrace and then having the transfer in a few weeks. I don't know anything about how frozen cycles work so here are my questions:
1. Has anyone ever done a frozen cycle immediately after a failed fresh cycle? I was surprised I didn't have to wait at all.
2. Can anyone give me an idea of estrace side effects?
3. I only have 3 frozen blastocysts. What is the likelihood that they will survive the thaw?
4. Can anyone give me frozen cycle success stories?
Thanks!

Am sorry to hear that u got BFN in your fresh IVF cycle.
I did FET after a fresh cycle. Frozen cycle is alot easier than a fresh cycle.
I didnot take estrace. each doctor gives different medication.
I had 2 frozen blastocysts (grade 2 i guess). They survived the thaw. U wont know if they will survive till they thaw them. do u know what grade are your blastocysts?
I didnot have success in my FET. but i heard alot of stories where couples have higher success rate in getting pregnant in a frozen cycle than in a fresh cycle.
Wish u the best luck. Keep us updated with your news :-).
