Frustrated and Overwhelmed
Hi, My husband and I just went through our first IVF cycle and got 4 embryos which is awesome. But now I just got a saline SONO done and found out I have to have surgery to remove a polyp. I know that relatively speaking my husband and I are in great shape for going forward and everything - but my God all I want is to get going with the FET and hope it works but I feel like every time I get one step forward I get pushed two steps back with other necessary procedures I didn't know about.
I'm also currently on birth control (which is severely limiting my appetite so I'm sure I'm both hormonally off and lacking in nutrition/calories (not my best self)). I just figured that after the IVF cycle we'd do the transfer and that'd be it. I'm a little frustrated that that's not the case.
Any advice or words of wisdom are appreciated.

When I had my FET I felt I was in such a bad shape. I had to cancel so many rounds of stims and start all over again because my eggs were behaving weirdly and then I continued to have OHSS, and on top of it also had to cancel a medicated FET because I felt so bad from the estrogen. My body felt so tired and I was thinking to myself that I am in such a bad state right now... I only had 1 embryo as well so I felt it was not going to work. But it did, and I'm sitting here with my 2 week old little boy 💙 Our bodies are strong! 💪 Good luck! X
I would recommended removing them! It’s far less painful then doing the transfer wasting your precious embryos and then having to do it anyways
I’m on my third euploid transfer two miscarried and so far 6dpt and negative - if it doesn’t work I’m going to have to NOW explore doing the hysteroscopy and now wasted all the euploids I have.
This journey needs alot of patience I too thought I’d go to transfer and I’d be at the finish line… I’d say proactive is best!
