Post by jenf79 »

Okay I have read some more info on the internet. Am I supposed to get my period while on the Lupron, Menopur, and Brev.? I am confused?

Call you doctor. That sounds very wrong to me.

I see you have another post which seems to give different info. A period after Lupron start is normal on the usual long protocol. A period in the middle of ovarian stimulation (Bravelle and Menopur) is not.

Protocols vary, so we cannot know exactly what's up with your cycle. Call your doctor.

My spotting and cramps started on the last few days of BCP and a few days after starting Lupron. I have not started Meno & Brav yet. So I am supposed to have a period while on lupron, but before the Meno & Brav?

Yes, what Ghost said it generally how a cycle goes. You do Lupron, then start your period. And usually when you start your period you call the clinic & they tell you what day to start the Bravelle & Menopure. So call you clinic as soon as possible and ask them what you do next.
