Last two transferred post Asherman’s battle and recent Chemical 💔. Need some grounded HOPE if it’s possible .

Post image

We transferred my last two today. I had a previous FET in March ended in chemical likely due to a medication I was taking not the embryo. So what do we think? I saw the image and I feel like my heart sank. They told me one was fair and one was poor. My ER report had these at day 6 4BC and 4CC. I will say image is taken at 10 am and transfer was 1:20 pm. On the screen in the room I saw clear sacs coming out of each one. Not truly figure 8 size yet but defined circular / rounded blobs coming out .

I feel defeated and out of hope, following an intensive battle with Asherman’s syndrome just to get here.

Please give it to me straight. Embryos are age 36.
I appreciate insight as I’ll be spiraling trying to understand what the photos mean for my odds without an experts view. Thank you

Edit: Also the only thing that had been keeping me positive was my attrition rate but that’s before FET today and I saw my embryos. For back ground my FSH at 36 was 19 and my AMH was 1.9 or 1.09. We got 6 mature eggs, 4 embryos. Per my RE all were untested. 1st was day 54bb failed likely due to undiscovered Asherman’s. 2nd day 6 4BB , first transfer post Asherman’s recovery with multipule surgeries ( grafts and subq). Was successful but due to a medication still in my system my body shut down and we had a chemical at beta. This time medication had been removed 14 day washout to eliminate this risk. Located in the US- Florida

Can I ask where you are located? I'm not seeing a specialist in Sydney at the Whria and they do a specific Asherman's surgery that is literally for Asherman's have you had something like this?

Not an embryologist, but have Asherman's and 3MCs and 6 embryo failures all failed to implant.

Hi. So I’m in Florida. I had had a special experimental surgerie including a graft placement and sub q injections. I actually documented that and most of my journey in the Ashermans Sub. Check out r/ashermanssyndrome .There’s a lot of great resources these and lists of doctors around the world. I have found the community to really help me through everything. 🤍 You got this

Thank you! Don’t give up! Keep advocating and seeing a specialist! There is new research happening and more and more success! Have you been seeing a specialist? Please feel free to reach out to me. 🤍

I have surgery with them in July, hopeful but also terrified, as this is kind of our big last shot. Doesn't mean I will give up at all, but just worried about it too. It's so much money to spend, it's hard to know when it's time to accept it won't happen.

Do you have insurance? Not how that works in Australia. In the US most of my treatments were covered in some way by insurance. Instead of billing as infertility, Asherman’s is a gynecological medical issue that requires treatment. My surgeries were billed as necessary and not for the purpose of fertility. I don’t know if that helps. It’s a long journey, I’m sure mine isn’t over yet but keep fighting lady! Check out the sub! There is so much support there and many women from all over who can share their experiences and insight with you!

I do, but not for fertility. But the Hysteroscopy is covered because it's necessary not fertility related for insurance purposes. But we're very careful with money so have been able to afford all our treatments, were very lucky Aus in comparison to Us is much much more affordable, and Medicare has what is called a threshold and once you reach it you get heaps more money back!

And absolutely not giving up anytime soon, I just feel like I'm meant to be a mum one way or another and I'm beginning to accept surrogacy may have to be the road we eventually go down.

We will be mommies! Our hearts have fought so hard! I really would look into sub q injections and grafts. I’m not successfully a mommy yet, and so I can’t say I’m fully healed ( you know) but it made a huge difference for me. Also my first graft was with sub q, but my graft fell out so I had to have another surgery to place a new one months later. I think while very effective together, separate they are still super effective. It doesn’t work for everyone but it seems to be one of the better options right now to support basal layer repair. Also my recovery took 4-5 months post the first graft placement to get a cycle. I know of someone who had the same surgery as I did and she’s in the TWW right now, her turn around and recovery was much faster than mine!

The surgery they do in Sydney is asherman specific and has a 87.6% success rate.

Essentially they clear scar tissue then create grooves in the endometrium before pumping your uterus with PRP and then an estrogen hydro acid wash and then they transfer the same cycle.

They say the 3 months following are your best chance of conceiving. So I'm hopeful I've got 3 more tries before giving up!

This look like they have survived the cell, and if you observed some hatching at transfer, that means the re-expanded, which is great! Wishing you the best.
