Thanks Ghost - I started Ganerelix the same time in my last cycle. when one follie was 14, but my E2 numbers were consistently going up last time. I guess time will tell with this one.

thanks for your response.

I am a low responder on Day 12 of stims (Menopur only EPP). My E2 numbers are as follows: Day 6 – 28, Day 10 – 285, Day 12 – 204. I have 3 follies: 14, 12 and 11. The drop in E2 does not make sense to me, unless I am getting ready to ovulate on my own. Do you think this cycle is still salvageable? I ...

Ghost, You just saved me over $1000.. Thank you so much. Went home and checked the exp date on the vials and sure enough it is 01/2010.. The liquid expired on 09/01/09, but I don't need all the liquid..

I don't have to tell you that you are very much appreciated on this forum. I have asked my RE ...

Hi,

I am starting a Estrogen Priming Protocol this week and have a question regarding expired meds. I have 10 vials of Menopur left over from my last cycle. They expiration date is 08/09. I am going to be starting to take my shots either tomorrow or Thursday. Do I really need to discard the expired ...

THanks for the reply - My RE did mention that he would like the cycle to be shorter than the last one which was 14 days.

Not sure how they are at freezing. Are those stats on SART? I have never produced enough to consider freezing so I have never paid attention to that.

I am gearing up for cycle #5. My first 3 cycles were kind of wasted as the RE did not change protocols. First 2 were converted to iui, and I only ended up with one follicle that did not make it to transfer on the 3rd.

I changed RE's and had a much better cycle for #4. He tried EPP with high doses ...

Thanks so much for your response. I tried DHEA with cycle #3, took 75mg per day, for 3 months with no apparent affect.
I keep thinking that DE is the best option for us, especially since each failed cycle gets harder and harder to deal with emotionally. Kowning that my chances actually increase ...

Hi,

I am 36 and a poor responder and have had 4 failed cycles:

IVF #1 – BCP, Lupron, FSH and Menopur – Produced one mature follicle, converted to IUI - BFN
IVF #2 – Antagonist protocol, BCP, FSH, Menopur and Ganerelix – Produced 1 mature follicle, which was lost before retrieval??, explanation ...

I asked you about the shortage of menpour the other day and wanted to say thanks for the reply.

I am on day 11 of stimming (my 3rd cycle of IVF). Still only 2 follies, one on each side, they are measuring 9 and 10… E2 doubled and is at 157

My last cycle was very similar to this and the follies ...

Hi, I am a poor responder on my 3rd cycle of IVF after 5 months on DHEA. I am currently on day 9 and only have 2 follies less than 7mm each.

I have been taking 4 amps of Brevelle and 4 amps of Menepour each day. It seems that there is a shortage of Menepour and none of the pharmacies in my area ...

I posted this in the general forum and did not get any responses. Hoping for some responses on this board.

I am looking for some protocol info on DHEA… I am diagnosed with low reserve and have been on DHEA for 3 months and gearing up for my next cycle in June. My doctors don’t have much info on ...

I am looking for some protocol info on DHEA… I am diagnosed with low reserve and have been on DHEA for 3 months and gearing up for my next cycle in June. My doctors don’t have much info on DHEA and are sort of experimeiting on me.

I have some questions for any one who has tried DHEA or has any ...

Esperanza - I am sorry, but wanted to say don't give up yet... My situation is very different. heck they don't even know if I ovulated during this cycle and with dh's low motility, I really did not have a good chance.

You may have tested too early or your test may not be as strong and if it is in ...

WashingtonDA - You go girl. I am so happy for you....
