Anonymous wrote:With the natural cycle study, do you have to take progesterone shots after the transfer? I was told that the reason for the progesterone shots in regular IVF is that the retrieval actually punctures the gland that produces progesterone, so I would think it would be the same process with natural IVF, right? Or am I wrong?

My doctor okayed natural cycle because I have regular ovulating cycles -- they know because I did 4 IUIs with them previously. The PP had the protocol similar to mine. I went in Day 2 for baseline bloodwork and ultrasound (make sure no cysts) and have been told to come back on Day 9 for second monitoring. I may have another monitoring appt and then they will tell me to do Ovidrel trigger, start progesterone, and then go in for transfer five days later (as I have Day 5 frostie).
