When did your period start after freeze-all IVF cycle?

Anonymous
I did an earlier cycle and my period started about 4 days after egg retrieval - freeze all cycle, so no progesterone/estrogen supplements at this stage of the game. It’s now been almost a week from my 2nd IVF cycle/egg retrieval (also freeze-all), and still no signs of my period. I know that menstrual cycles tend to be shorter after IVF retrievals, but I wasn’t sure what’s within the range of normal. I'll be talking with my nurse later this week, so I can ask her, but was curious what others have experienced.

Why would AF come so soon after retrieval? Isn't LP normally 14 days?

you don't get LP in the retrieval cycle - there is no corpus lutheum after retrieval.

Ask your nurse. We don't know your body or your protocol. Different triggers can cause different outcomes for your next cycle.

5-10 days.

Mine was exactly 10 days after retrieval.

It's been 9 days and I don't feel any signs of AF at all... you have to get it at some point right?
