[quote=Anonymous]Got the call today after my beta that our third FET with a PGS normal 6 day blast is most likely a chemical pregnancy. (Beta is only 28 at 9dp6dt). Our first FET in June with our only PGS normal from our first fresh IVF cycle resulted in a beta of 46 at 9d6dpt, and was a chemical. Did a second fresh cycle in August, and got two PGS normals out of five that made it to 6 day blasts. Complete BFN on the second FET with one of those. Now this third FET is a bust, too.

I am so devastated. And also pissed, since we're now upwards of $55K out of pocket. We are doing IVF because DH has cancer and the meds he has to be on, plus the chemo from his bone marrow transplant, makes natural pregnancy impossible. We banked sperm before the treatments started, and have to do ICSI. We have done ERA biopsy (receptive for 6 days progesterone, so - okay) and a hysteroscopy last month after the second failed FET (removed two tiny polyps, nothing major). I have been on Crinone 2x day and Estradiol 2x day for each FET, plus baby aspirin. Not sure what else to do at this point or even what questions to ask next week at the WTF appointment. My RE was very optimistic when we started that this would be a pretty easy process, with likely success with our first FET, as all my tests and levels are normal/good for my age.

I was able to conceive naturally five years ago and carry to term, but that took two years of trying and three failed IUIs at SG before a spontaneous pregnancy right before we were scheduled to start IVF. (We have since moved out of the DC area). Now I am 38 1/2. That experience, combined with my age and these current difficulties, leads me to believe there is some kind of underlying issues. But I don't know what. Dealing with the cancer, which is not in remission, plus this, is just like... can we catch a f-ing break?? Anyway, any thoughts or questions I should ask are very appreciated!
