[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Natural cycle has a lower success rate because you go with whatever embryo you got in that cycle.  Medicated cycle results in more embryos so they can pick and choose the best to transfer.  There is no inherent problem for natural cycle.[/quote]

FET means frozen embryo transfer. The same number of embryos are available regardless of whether you do a natural or medicated FET cycle as they have been previously frozen.     This has no relationship to a “natural” IVF cycle which is what you seem to be thinking of.

There is a difference in quality of embryo when you can pick the best embryo from multiple ones from a stim cycle, vs just go with the one you got from natural cycle.  A woman who goes in stim my have 10 eggs retrieved which resulted in five or more embryos would have a higher rate of success at her first FET, if she has them PGS tested and sorted, than just roll with her one egg retrieved from natural cycle.[/quote]

You are confusing natural cycle IVF versus natural cycle FET, where a frozen embryo (from a stimulated retrieval) is transferred but no meds are used to prepare the uterus. OP is asking about the latter.

Both of my children came from natural cycle FETs after a medicated FET failed first. [/quote]
