    Hi Folks, I was on here a few months ago regarding IVF treatment. I am delighted to say that I have been through the programme and I have 6 embryos "on ice" at the moment. Thank You to everyone who advised & reassured me before the start of my treatment.
    I couldn't have the fresh transfer done as I had hyper-stimulated, so I am back in the process now and starting treatment for a FET. However my question is, should I get the flu vaccine at this stage in the Programme? There is a really bad strain of flu going around, so I think it would be safer to get it, but I have never gotten it before so I am not sure if it is the right thing to do. Has anyone ever gotten it at this stage of their treatment?
    Thank You in advance!

    Didn't have the flu vaccine during treatment but did have it while pregnant and there was no issue with that. In fact it was recommended.
