The lupron is the easy part. The stimulation meds are the fun part. They tend to be more uncomfortable but tolerable. The rapid hormone changes and ovary swelling are the worst part and even that is not that bad until near the end. Then you will probably move on to progesterone oil injections......not fun!! They go into the muscle. It's a scary journey but also exciting. If you get a baby you will look back and think that the whole process was well worth all of your efforts. I have 1 IVF baby and working on #2.....currently waiting on the pregnancy test. Good luck!
