Depends on your clinic, but yes, most likely

OP, where are you at in the cycle?

I got Covid between my retrival and transfer month (I did a month lag) and it was ok since nothing was going on. I would think if you’re actively in one or about to start they’d postpone or cancel. 😖 sorry if you got Covid (hopefully this post is hypothetical)
They will cancel your cycle. For starters, it risks exposure for their staff and other patients. Also, active covid infection is an anesthesia risk, and since they have to sedate you, it's for your own safety that they don't go forward.

My clinic's procedure:
1) Test 2 days before starting stims
2) Test 2 days before egg retrieval
3) Test 2 days before starting transfer protocol meds
4) Test 2 days before transfer
Yes, unfortunately at any point in the process if I (or my husband), tested positive, the process would be stopped / cancelled.
Since we did an FET, it essentially meant we were extremely cautious for 2 months. I still stand by it was the most anxiety-producing part of the whole thing!

We tested negative so ready to begin but suddenly nervous and paranoid about so many covid cases
I saw this recently in the FB group It Begins With the Egg (group for egg retrieval/IVF support). Even though they had a great response, they tested positive for Covid just before their retrieval and were forced to cancel the procedure. Consult your clinic on what their exact policies are. Good luck!
We requested to use frozen seamen so we only had to worry about me testing positive for covid. my husband was tested before his sample but outside of that they only tracked me. Made things a hint easier. (this was for IVF)

Same as well, I’m so happy we did this because he ended up getting Covid after the sample! It also made the logistics of scheduling easier - not sure why it wasn’t offered outright and we had to ask
