Chemical question

So I had a three day fresh transfer on 7 September. On Sunday 15 September I started bleeding and haven’t stopped, although it’s not continuous and not enough to soak a pad etc, so I convinced myself it was all over. Today was my test day and I tested despite the bleeding as the clinic were calling for the results a...

Unmedicated ivf

Hi everyone, seeing a lot of comments on here about doing unmedicated / natural IVF. How does that work? How many eggs do you retrieve from that, just 1-2? I’m awaiting my AMH results but I had 36 follicles at my last scan a few weeks ago post ovulation, so they’re confident it’s going to be high / normal range. T...

Please can someone reassure me this is negative. I'm only 7dpo so too early to test but I'm not sure if I can see something extremely faint. Will be testing over the next couple of days but really need this to be negative 😬

11dpo

11dpo negative pregnancy test, I saw somewhere that if you get a positive ovulation test it may indicate LH and HGC surges. So I did this and my ovulation test was positive, flashing smiley on clear blue. AF is due on Tuesday, do we think this is a good sign?
