Oops that was a boo-boo!

Think I just made a boo-boo with my meds 😁😁. Been taking lucrin (gnrh antagonist)for 6 days prior to my period which started yesterday and my protocol said to start gonal-f (fsh injection) when my period started. I tried calling the clinic to check with nurses but it was Sunday so we’re closed and could only leave a message. So took both injections anyway as that’s what I’ve done in the past and then I get a message this morning saying to wait 5 more days before taking the fsh injections!

I’m in a bit of a panic now. I suppose it just means that I won’t be suppressing for the length of time that was planned or maybe it will be ok to do as planned and stay on just lucrin for another 5 days and hope the one injection hasn’t woken ovaries up too much.

Oh dear, always something!! Waiting to hear from clinic with further instructions.

Cycle 3 nearly underway

 Today’s the day we have an appointment at the new clinic to start IVF cycle no 3. I’m hopeful that it works this time. Praying really that it does. Here’s the protocol we are starting today. So much easier when it’s in a graph form don’t you think? Especially easy when friends ask us how’s IVF going? It’s a hard one to explain and of course no body is aware of the actual process so graph form helps.

We are starting a long down regulation protocol. A long one but we are ok with that as it turns out we would only be able to fit the one cycle in before we head on our overseas holiday in June. Our specialist said the downfall of this protocol is that if its not successful people feel that they’ve invested too much time as it spans two cycles. I’m not super keen to be on meds for 3 weeks but I was on them for 2 weeks last cycle so it’s no biggie. See what happens. Fingers crossed!
