[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Following this - My RE recommended a natural cycle FET for me and I'm curious to know what other people's experiences have been like. What is the typical protocol? I presume PIO shots don't vary either way.[/quote]

With a natural cycle you don't need PIO shots, progesterone suppositories are sufficient.  My RE gave me a choice and I chose natural cycle since my cycles are reasonably regular. She said there was no difference in success rates between the two and I preferred less medication.  Protocol was start with  BCP  (ended up being 18 days but initially i think they said it would be shorter ) then after stopping it counting the bleed as cycle day 1.  Started Asprin  cycle day 1.  Cycle Day 10 ultrasound and blood draw  (had 2 more ultrasounds/blood draws  prior to trigger). My lining wasn't thick enough so at some point they started me on estrace vaginally.   CD 9 started LH testing  They estimated LH surge would bew CD 13 but was actually CD 15 (I think)   Date of LH Surge triggered with HCG.   The following day started Vivelle patches, progesterone suppository.  They also did a steroid  (medrol) and doxycyline for 4 days prior to transfer.  Transfer was day 5 after ovulation (Day 6 after trigger).
