Down regg??

Post by souris »

Hello all!

I was wondering if anyone had a "quick" treatment??
I did not down regg or had nasal spray that many of you mentionned...
I started the injections, had them for about 10 days and had EC!

I will be starting my 2dn IVF ICSI in Jan with a new clinic and I wonder if I will have the same tmt or not...

I think the first tmt was good as i had 13 eggies collected...

Any advice please?

Thanks

Souris - Your post is the second spooky post I've read tonight !!! I will endeavour to explain ...

I have just replied to a post on the General F, re Care clinics advising not to use Chinese herbs during tmt. I saw that Notice too, at Care, just yesterday.

Also at Care yesterday I was offered a different cycle. Neither a Long, nor Short/Flare Protocol. It is a cycle that last the same length of time as the Flare (ie. around 10-12 days), but no downregging. Sounds too good to be true ?? I was assured it has shown the same results as the other protocols. They say it has been around for 9 years, and the results (so far) are showing normal - ie. babies born of it, who are now aged 9, are normal.

I don't think this protocol is widely available. The consultant termed it as a "scientific advancement'. I suppose, therefore, it depends how 'advanced' your new clinic is.

Good luck !!

*Bye the way, I'm hoping to cycle again around Xmas/New Year, so we may be cycle buddies !!)
