Just learned earlier this week that my first FET failed. I know I want to pursue a third (and likely final) retrieval before more transfers, and just got my period today. I could start BC for suppression in 2 days for an ER to likely occur in early June. That would probably be the logical thing to do since I’ll be 37 in July and my eggs aren’t getting younger. At the same time, I just feel like I could use a month off. I’ve been doing some form of fertility treatment (IUIs, ERs, and a transfer) consistently since July 2025 and am a little worse for wear emotionally and physically. Is it dumb to take a month off when the egg quality is probably only going to worsen with time? I feel like I’ve lost all objectivity with the hormone crash and am having trouble gauging if my decisions are being guided by wisdom or hormone fluctuations!
