    Birth Control and cycling in a year

    Hi Dr. Potter! I am planning on cycling in July or August of 2013. Is it okay for me to go on birth control now so we make sure we can cycle in a year? Will that hurt my cycle?

    Thanks!


    Cycle #1: HRC- 30 retrieved, 18 fertilized, 8 biopsied. 4 normals, no girls.
    Cycle #2: HRC- 17 retrieved, 14 mature & fertilized. 9 biopsied. 4 normals, 2 girls!
    1xx HEB aa transferred: BFN
    FET #1: 1xx- HEB bb transferred. BFP 6dpt! Beta 13dp6dt 1015!

    hi 3boys-- I am obviously not Dr. Potter, but I asked the same question recently--It is not a problem to go on it now, we just need to be off of it for a couple of cycles before pretesting. Lots of good luck to you!
    (born March, 2012)--IVF at RMANY (no GS for first one since no real preference-said we'd do it for second one)--23 eggs--12 fertilized with ICSI--1 frozen

    March/April 2013--SIRM NY--23 eggs, 15 embryos, 2 girls transferred, 1 girl and 1 unknown (only 4 celled at day 3 so no biopsy) frozen. BFP on HPT at 6dp5dt, Beta at 8dp5dt=70, Beta at 10dp5dt=216 , 1 hb at 6 weeks, ob appt at 7w2d--wow it's twins!!! CVS--2 HEALTHY GIRLS! Our twin girls were born 6 weeks early, but doing fabulously and we are so in love!! Our family is complete!!!
