Well, if you’ve ever gone through fertility treatments, you know it’s full of ups and downs.

2 weeks into my scheduled transfer cycle, I got a call from the Dr about having to repeat the biopsy done for a study in which we are participating. The benefits of the study are mostly financial. We received a few “upgrades” to our cycle for no cost in exchange for using 1 cycle to perform a biopsy. The study is to determine if the transfer day of a FET cycle is individual to the patient. The only downfall of participating was an entire cycle goes by with no progression to the finish line. We didn’t think it was a big price to pay to receive about $5k worth of ICSI, PGT-A testing and assisted hatching.

Well…I have to repeat that wasted cycle, AGAIN! So my original transfer date of October 7th is now looking more like mid-November. But hey, we waited this long, what’s another 30 days. I go in for the 2nd biopsy tomorrow and hopefully start the REAL transfer cycle next week!
