Okay, so, about that whole frozen embryo transfer thing after getting a polyp removed – let me tell you, it was a journey. First off, I found out I had this pesky uterine polyp. Apparently, those little buggers can mess with your chances of getting pregnant, so, yeah, it had to go.
I got it removed, no biggie. Doctor said it went smoothly, so it was good. Then came the waiting game. I was so eager to move on to the frozen embryo transfer (FET), I did a cycle of IVF before, but the results were bad, we got no blastocyst. I was really upset then. Luckily, in the second cycle, we finally got one blastocyst! You can’t even imagine how excited I was then. But the doctor suggested another hysteroscopy and I followed the doctor’s advice.
Honestly, I was a bit impatient. I read some things online, and it seemed like some folks were saying you could jump right into the transfer the next month after the polyp removal.
Here’s the thing: I went with my gut (and my doctor’s advice, of course!). I waited to make sure everything was okay.
- Polyp removal surgery – check.
- I waited for a month to get my body healed.
- Started all the meds and monitoring for the FET cycle.
Here’s how it went down for me:
My doctor told me that frozen embryo transfer cycle can be planned as soon as a month after the embryos were created or several years later. And their fertility and laboratory experts use the most advanced technology. That’s very professional.
It felt like forever, but I finally got the green light for the transfer! It was a success and now I am pregnant! Now I’m a happy mom-to-be, and I just wanted to share my story. It might not be the same for everyone, but for me, waiting a bit after the polyp removal was the right call. It is so good to be a mom! You know?
