Thank you gals!!
To_have_fun: You said they kept you on Lupron for like 2 weeks, and you were still not suppressed enough, so you went on it again for another week, then it was still high, so they kept you on a little longer?? Were you on the same dosage this whole time? They should have raised the Lupron level right?? Or was that what you meant when you said you'd done a cycle before and you were UNDER stimulated?? That makes sense as to why for the next cycle they didn't want to increase your dosage to much. Dam.. Seems like you really DO have to have done a cycle before so that you know what your body's gonna do!! ha ha..
They are raising my Lupron dosage to 20 IUs for the next 3 nights and by Thursday morning I pray that I am suppressed enough. If I am not, I pray that I have the grace and understanding to get through it.
Yes, I was on BCP from Oct. 20 - to Oct. 31. Started 10 IUs Lupron on Oct. 27- will be on it thru next week..
Now, question: Can this cycle still be turned into an IUI if my E2 levels stay high and I can't start stim meds?? I would of course be willing to do that - I've never done an IUI - so it may very well work for me..
Babyhope : Thank you so much. Kind of funny - you said "Stay positive, like the woman on here that said she had her cyst shrink/disapear after BC pills, you too will get back on track after this adjustment."
I believe that was ME who said that! Not this past week, but the week before, I went in and had a cyst on my ovary, so the Doc said to me: ya know, the BCP may clear this up, but if not, some changes will have to occur in your cycle and the timing and everything. They put me on the BCP and planned to check on the cyst 7 days later. I prayed. FOUR days later, the cyst was gone. God has gotten me thru many hurdles. I'm not sure why I tend to forget that each time a new crisis comes my way.
I am praying ladies.. not only for me, but for you guys too! Thank you so much for answering my questions.. The support here is invaluable... May we all get our miracles
