Hi Ladies
I hope you are all enjoying the sun wherever you are!
I am on Day 2 of Down regulating - sniffing Nafarelin so no injections until I start stimming with puregon on the 26th (ish).
Babysoft, I also seem to suffer from varying FSH (was 13.6 then 7.9) and this is the protocol I am on: day 21 of cycle started to sniff Nafarelin. 15 days later blood test to check for down reg then start injecting 250iu of Puregon for 8 days then Ultrasound to check how follicles are doing. I will also use Prog suppositories for 14 days post Embryo transfer.
I am interested if any of you ladies are experiencing any strange hormone mood swings etc? i started sniffing yesterday and a few hours later i was sitting and thought about being in a doctors office having an ultrasound and they told me i was having a boy and a girl. I then burst out crying....this is definitely not usual behaviour for me. Will i be a nut case by day 14? :shock:

Babysoft- do a search for Advanced Fertility Clinic of Chicago. They have an excellent site, with loads of IVF information. Then, in that site, search IVF protocol. They give a typical Down Reg. protocol. Mine follows theirs pretty closely, with a few minor differences. That may help!!

Melanie- Hopefully af will come today! If not, call tomorrow and find out what they want you to do.

I AM A COMPLETE BONEHEAD! I just dropped my last bcp down the drain!! My dh tried to look for it, but it's gone. I just called the clinic (they are open on Sundays) and am waiting for my Dr. to call in a new pack of pills, so I can take ONE pill out of them. GRRRRRR!!! Oh well....

My Update

Post by lynneyd7 »

Hello everyone,
Had my day six u/s and b/w. My protical is to continue the Lupron 5 units every morning. Gonal-F 225 and Menopur 75 in the evenings. My estrogen level is 357. Not sure exatcly what that means so if anyone can let me know that would be great. Again this is my first IVF, so getting excited and hopes are high. I had six follicals on my left and four on my right, smalles being 8.9 and the biggest was 14. Again not sure if those are good numbers or not. I go in for my next u/s and b/w on Tuesday am. So they are thinking I will probaly trigger either Thursday or Friday:) Hope everyone has a great day and best of luck to all.

Well, I too am waiting for AF. I took my last BCP on June 7. I go June 12 to have my supression check (b/w and u/s) and my trial transfer. I'm scheduled to start Gonal on June 17. I had my DH give me my lupron shots this weekend for practice. On Saturday, I think I was as nervous about him giving me one as he was about giving it. He did fine after all. Sunday was a better. My clinic said they would draw circles on my hip with a permanent marker for my HCG shot so he will know the right place to put the needle. My DH says he's going to keep it darkened through the duration of the PIO shots, just to make sure, we'll see.

Babysoft - sorry to hear that your cycle was cancelled. You don't seem very happy with your clinic, is there another around that you can go to?

The may/june list is very cute. I don't know how they do that either. Maybe one of us can go incognito and infiltrate the group to steal all their secrets! LOL

Welcome new girls, we hope you enjoy it here.

I actually did go to the may/june groups to ask them a question. One of them sent me some baby dust, I'll share it with all of you!
