Minimal things to consider

Response to negative hcg

I am so sorry, I know how devastating it is. Maybe before rushing forward to your next FET, as I did, you could explore some small things that might make a difference but not be too much trouble.

It's not that difficult to pull a thrombophilia panel to see if you might benefit from heparin and/or MTHR supplementation (folic acid prescription). I sure wish I had done this years ago -- turns out I have all the clotting factors and MTHR. It was a $600 test.

Like you, I had "perfect" embies every time, and because I did not explore other things, transferred my frozens and only found out I need these extra therapies when we needed to completely start over. I have a number of friends who did some tests like this before they used up all their frozens, and they have babies now from their last remaining frozens.
