Modified Natural vs Fully Medicated FET

I need help.

I’m trying to figure out which FET option to do. I have PCOS and take Provera to get my period. My doctor is a fan of natural cycles (but would give me trigger and Letrozole). They said I could decide if I wanted to do the natural with a bit of medicine or a fully medicated.

I haven’t really heard about natural (or maybe this is considered modified natural) before and was hoping for advice. Thanks!

FET Prep

Hi 👋

I should have my FET in June if PGT-A goes well. I’m pretty nervous about it, since my last FET (from first ER) didn’t work. I’d love to know what everyone did to prepare for their FET (supplements, diet, bloodwork, procedures, etc). Thank you 💙

Plan Comparison Question

I currently have the 2 Lines ONE Plan All In Promo and have 3 lines. I pay $155/mo net (there’s a $15/mo discount to make it $155/mo net). I’ve had this plan for years. However, when I went to T-Mobile to purchase a new phone, the representative was very persistent that I needed to switch to the Better Value Plan which is $140/mo plus taxes and fees. The representative indicated that it should come out to the same $155/mo net with all of the same benefits I currently have plus streaming. I declined, as I wanted to do further research, but the representative was pushing so hard after I said no. I didn’t switch plans and held my ground. I became distrustful because of the persistence after I said kept saying no.

I was hoping to know if anyone has made the switch and how much they ended up paying monthly? Is the new plan truly a better plan with more benefits for similar costs, or should I stay on my current plan? I really like plan and don’t understand why I should change it.

Thank you!

Hysteroscopy cost?!

My Hysterscopy with an endometrium biopsy (the biopsy checks for chronic endometritis) costs $2,500 through insurance (the hospital is actually billing around $25k). Im super happy about the biopsy…seems like it could be really helpful.

I’m curious to know how much people have paid for this procedure. Thanks!!

I had 51 follicles going into my egg retrieval today. They were expecting 25-30 eggs to be retrieved. When I woke up, the doctor let me know that they were only able to collect 14 eggs and many follicles were empty. I’m just so heartbroken and scared. This is my second egg retrieval (I had poor egg quality for my first ER and only had two blasts. One didn’t make the thaw and the other didn’t stick). I’m so scared of the attrition rates and I’m not sure if I can afford to do this all over again. I just feel like I got punched in the gut because I was expecting more eggs and this blindsided me.

My doctors have been so kind and I truly trust their judgement. I’m just so disappointed in my body.
