So I was completely removed off from menopu, dropped to 75 of Gonal-F, and started cetrotide. Does this mean I am progressing too quickly? Should I be alarmed?Any insight?

    I don't think starting cetrotide after 7 days is alarming. It's pretty normal to adjust stim dosages as you progress in your cycle. What's your E2 looking like? Do you know the last measurements of your follicles?

    It could just be that your E2 was rising faster than they wanted and they are changing it up to help prevent OHSS.  I wouldn't be worried, but I'd definitely ask why and what your E2 numbers are, just to know.


    Me 33, DH 37 -- TTC since Jan'12 -- Low AMH (0.78) & endo, SA w/ low motility
    IUI's 1-3 = BFN, IVF converted to IUI 4/13 = BFN

    I definitely will ask what my E2 is at. Is there anything else I should ask? Sorry first IVF have no idea what to expect and it seems odd they have slowed down so much in just 1 week

    Everything sounds good. They probably just don't want your e2 to skyrocket at the end so they are scaling your meds back a bit. Totally normal. As the pp mentioned, it's always good to know your e2. You sound like you are right on track. Good luck with the remainder of your cycle!

    They didn't change your protocol, just adjusted the dosage of meds. Don't worry. I started Ganirelix (same function as Ceterotide) after 6 days of stims last time. Sounds like you're on track and have some good follies developing!
