Estradiol

Friday, March 16, 2012

I have been taking the Estradiol pills for the last several days.  The Estrace (estradiol) is a form of estrogen, a female sex hormone produced by the ovaries.  This pill is suppose to get my body ready for the embryo transfer.  I take the Estradiol three times a day and sometimes it can make me have stomach cramps.

The genetic testing has not come back yet from RMA in NJ.  They told me it could possibly be two more weeks.

So in the meantime I need to take the Estradiol until we get those results back.  It seems like it is taking forever but it only has been a couple of weeks since the egg retrieval.

All we can do is wait and be patient.
