BFN at 12dpo. Stop meds right?

[Anonymous]

I’ve had a BFN for a couple days ow. No hint of a line. Beta on Monday but I think I’d like to stop my progesterone as it seems like my period is trying to break through and I don’t want to delay the start of my next cycle unnecessarily. I had an FET and am the equivalent of 12dpo. Just looking for reassurance.

Monday is two days from now. Follow the plan. These two days will not change your trajectory.

I would quit.

No, you are playing the long game. Patience and resilience are skills we need to cultivate while we go down this road. Sorry OP.

Patience is needed not only for IVF, but also for motherhood.

Wait the two days.

Sorry OP. I would just stick to the plan and do until Monday it’s only Monday. I feel your pain - I got a BFN from a beta after a fresh transfer. In my experience I got my period 3 days after quitting the progesterone which I took vaginally. Hoping the next one is more successful, good luck to you!

*Meant to say its only one more day

This is a really crappy thing to say.

Seriously. This is OP here and actually one of the main reasons I wanted to stop meds is that if my cycle starts in the next two days I might be able to cycle again and not miss my son’s first day of school since I cycle out of state.

I asked a pretty simple question and I’m not sure why it’s been met with some hostility here.

Thank you PP.

I recommended she wait, but this is a shitty thing to say.

That other PP is totally out of line, sorry OP

I've had a BFP after a BFN at 12 DPO. Granted it was a chemical, but the stats say the miscarriage rate is 85% for implantation that late. Which means 15% don't miscarry. I understand not wanting to miss the first day of school and it's super low odds of a BFP and the BFP sticking, but just wanted to put that stat out for you.

Ok - sorry new poster here and can someone explain why this is a shitty thing to say? Im asking because I’ve done 6 ivfs, still don’t have a baby (primary infertility) and my psychiatrist actually told me that patience is needed for ivf as well as motherhood. I can’t remember my reaction when she said this but I don’t remember feeling bad. Maybe I’m emotionally clueless?

But back to the original question- I would probably wait- I always wait even after my BFNs in my FRERs...
