question about FET

Hi Dr. Wisot,

In a low stim COH approach to prepare for a FET, once the lining is at optimal thickness if there is not yet a surge on ovulation predictor kits, can you just skip ovulation completely and immediately start progesterone and then do the egg transfer 5 days later, or do you still need to use an hcg trigger for ovulation, and then plan the transfer for 5 days after ovulation, so 7 days after the trigger?

Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Jen

They can actually do either, start progesterone before you ovulate or use HCG to trigger ovulation and then time the transfer based on day of ovulation.
