15 going on 38

I must say that I have really enjoyed the estrogen ride of the FET protocol. It has been the strangest experience. I have had an unbelievable stamina and have felt invincible. Last weekend as I was driving into work (for the 3rd consecutive weekend), this song came on the radio, a song from my teenage years, and there it was! I was a teenager again, with all the hormones running through my system and I felt like I had my whole life ahead of me, ready for anything and everything. Later that day I even felt a pang of teenage angst. It was all there! Unbelievable! Has anyone else had similar experiences?

Well it was fun while it lasted. Tonight, I will start my PIO shots which will bring me back down to earth, I'm sure. I had my blood test and ultrasound this morning. Everything checks out, I'm on schedule for a transfer on Friday. I can't wait (See it's that teenage optimism again)!

That's amazing! I had exactly the opposite experience. I think my FET was the hardest cycle I'd ever done. Every time my RE would tell me I had to up my estrogen again I wanted to just cry.

So glad being an uber-woman is making you feel young again. What a lovely feeling.

Good luck in your upcoming transfer!

Ahh ... a libido. Fabulous! I'm sure your husband will appreciate it! :-)

The same thing happened to me on an injectables cycle around ov time. Sigh...
