I recently took fertility drugs (Follistim,Menopur,Lupron) during March 5-13. My RE stopped meds due to low estrogen(33). Since then I have new RE she wants to detox my system of the meds which fine with me. I should of already had my monthly cycle. On April 3rd she put me on Provera 20mg for 10 days and I still have no period she did blood test on April 21st Estrogen(73) Progest(9) she told me to wait 10 days to see if I have period if not take pregnancy test.
I'm am 15 days late and 3 home pregnancy test said negative. Is it's a chance I am still pregnant?
Both subtypes commonly produce estrogen, and estrogen production often is the reason for early diagnosis. However, while adult GCTs (AGCTs) usually occur in postmenopausal women and have late recurrences, most juvenile GCTs (JGCTs) develop in individuals younger than 30 years and often recur within the first 3 years. Theca cell tumors almost always are benign and carry an excellent prognosis. The rare malignant thecoma likely represents a tumor with a small admixture of granulosa cells.
I don't know about estrogen levels at all and how they effect pregnancy. I do know that the hcg levels are what shows a progressing pregnancy. They should double in 48 - 72 hours. I would ask for that number and find out if they are drawing a repeat blood sample to check the doubling time. It is very possible that it is just too early. Many moms can't see a hb at this stage yet. Try to not worry.
Thank you for your last response. I did see a dermatologist and she said the marks on my legs were sun spots. However now I have many other questions. Mt Melanoma was "in situ", which I hear is great. But now I am trying to do all I can to prevent it from coming back. I have recently read that both estrogen and vitamin C have been linked to increasing Melanoma. Is this true?
All I know is that after you get pregnant you can use an ovulation monitor as a pregnancy test since it can tell an increase just like when you ovulate. I'm not sure how soon after ovulation it works though.
I've been wondering if whether or not as a younger child in early puberty I had a little bit of a hormonal imbalance. I seem to have wider hips than most males and bonafide breast nub development. I was wondering if this is a concern for me presently because I was thinking of getting cosmetic gynecomastia-correcting surgery at some point, but I don't want any reason for my body to grow them back. I have pictures that I will gladly PM. Thank you!
I just mean I'm extremely sensitive and I know that during pregnancy your vaginal walls thicken due the the 50% increase in blood flow. It's triggered by higher levels of estrogen due to pregnancy. Plus, I don't know why I would have brown discharge. Since my period started 8 yrs ago, I've never had brown discharge this early before my period. My best friend had brown discharge and 3 days later found she was pregnant.
I wouldn't be worried .. you only take the estrogen early on in the pregnancy, and if you look around on this forum, you will find a lot of women on the same protocol as you ... a lot of clinics like to control your cycle so they can know exactly when the transfer is going to happen and also because the estrogen thickens the uterus lining ready for implantation. I am on it at the moment and will stay on it for 17 days past my transfer.
Hence to confirm the status of pregnancy, I suggest you to test for pregnancy by a highly sensitive pregnancy test 10 days post ovulation with a sensitive ( 20 - 25 mIU ) pregnancy test. Also then I would suggest you to get your serum HCG levels estimated since this is more specific than urine for pregnancy tests.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Hello,I'm new here, but like everyone else, been through hell, hoping, and looking for answers! I'm 36 and just had my first embryo transfer this past Monday, 7/13. Today, day 4 after the transfer, the doc's office called that my estrogen level from yesterday's blood work was a "little lower then we'd like it to be" 97, and progesterone 20+. He's starting my on estrace today.
Is there a possibility that I am pregnant even though I have had my period right after the sex, and the strange early bleeding? Is there a change to my birth control Rx that i should make? How do I tell if this bleeding is what they call "breakthrough bleeding" or "implantation bleeding"? I have read around and seen that some say this is a very normal occurrence for taking birth control low doses for a while.
