Utimpro - HCG recommendation

Did anyone take the Utimpro test and have a recommendation to take an HCG 2500 shot on day 4, 6 & 8 after progesterone? Wondering if your doctors told you any negatives to doing this? Also - can someone clarify if I take the trigger shot on day 14, start taking progesterone pills on day 15, and I am doing a 3 day embryo transfer, that would mean I take the shot on day 18, day 20 and day 22? Even though the embryo transfer will be on day 18 as well? (I understand these are more medical doctor questions but I'm trying to understand myself). Thanks!

Receptiva 3.6 - try birth control, lupron or orlissa?

Hi, Super stressed about a decision I need to make. My Receptiva test results were 3.6 - should I try birth control, lupron or orlissa? My dr. is recomending trying a month of birth control - since it's normally the 1st line of treatment for suspected endo. However, after researching, I'm concerned that it would only treat the symptoms not the inflammation (for a FET). I also would prefer to avoid the menopause symptoms of the other drugs, and scared to take a shot only 1x per month with the initial flare up. But also heard Orlissa isn't as effective. Can lupron be done every day - and is that as effective than the 1x per month? Or is Orlissa being shown as effective as Lupron? Also - do you get blood tests throughout the injections to see if it's working? Thanks!

Receptiva score 3.4 - should I treat?

Hi, Looking for some advice. To keep it short - my Receptiva test came back at 3.4.

My Dr is saying we could try another transfer (and do a month on birth control as a lighter treatment then Lupron), but I am now concerned he is underconcerned for the Receptiva score. I've heard now through my doctor and read via some studies, that there is some skeptisism about how seriously the receptiva results need to be interpreted, so I 'm just feeling really confused what plan to follow and if the Receptiva advice should be taken very seriously. Did anyoen get back a higher number and not follow the advice and get pregnant? Or get a second opinion and different doctors had different advice whether to treat it with Lupron or just try a month of birth control so suppress a bit? Thanks for all adnice.
