Frozen cycle?
Hi ladies! I was wondering if anyone could give me any words of wisdom for a frozen cycle! I am starting estrogen again tonight and a baby aspirin while I wait for my patches. They say on for two days then u switch them? Thanks!!

Re: Frozen cycle?
Everyone's protocol will be different, you should really ask your doctor when you should be swapping them. Good luck!

Ohh ok .. you had a question mark in there so I thought you were asking when to switch them! As far as words of wisdom for using them - keep baby oil on hand. Those things leave an annoying residue and baby oil helps to get it off in the shower. I also got VERY itchy underneath the patches so might wanna get some calamine lotion too!
The good news is I don't remember having any other side effects, just annoying skin related ones that I mentioned! Oh.. and any increase in estrogen could give you a headache ..

Frozen cycle?
Other then the sticky residue that I just scrubbed off with a washcloth and soap, I found the patches to be no big deal. Frozen cycles are much easier on the body than the fresh cycle. Good luck to you!!!

The sticky residue from the patches are a pain in the a$$ to get off. My loofah didn't work so I had to peel the glue off.
Good Luck.

I just did a FET but my cycle was natural. I started taking progesterone suppositories a few days before transfer. I also took an antibiotic a few days before transfer and I'm taking medrol. Other than that nothing. It was so much more easier than a fresh. Good Luck
