FET protocol?
Someplace I have this information but in my (un)organized state- I have no clue where I put it.  Granted I don't remember much around that time so I guess I shouldn't expect to know where I put a paper.....
Anyway, approx how long is the FET protocol? They said I'll start the estrogen pills on CD2- but how long am I on them for (approx?) - they also mentioned medrol, doxycycline, baby aspirin, PIO, and progesterone suppositories- which I know the PIO and suppositories... but I forget when I did the rest on the stim cycle.
Anyone have a general idea? TIA!

Re: FET protocol?
You take Estrace pills twice a day for approx. 8 days, then bump it up to 3x a day for 5 or 6 more days. Go in for sono, if your lining looks good and your bloods come back okay then they set you up for transfer. Start PIO the day before transfer...doxy/medrol/baby aspirin day of transfer and then switch over to progesterone supps the day after transfer for 14 days till beta.
It's very easy.......

Re: FET protocol?
Yep! That sounds right - when I did my first FET w/ Dr. Kriener I believe I started estrogen on June 30th and my transfer was done on July 22nd. About 3- 3 1/2 weeks total.
Dr. Braverman is COMPLETELY different. I think I've given myself more shots for my FET for next week than I did when I did my fresh IVF cycle!!!
Good Luck - glad to hear you are no longer in a holding pattern!!
