@CallaLily30
Since you responded to my post about switching from the antagonist to the lupron protocol, I was trying to stalk you.
Congrats on 20 healthy penguins! It looks like the lupron protocol was much better for you. Did they make any other changes to your protocol? (increase stims, ect...) Good luck with your FET in the future!
Me 27 DH 29 Married since 2007, together since 2001
Off BC since Febuary 2006
3 Clomid Cycles in 2008- symptomatic, US just showed a tilted uterus, otherwise normal, HSG normal. DH has an ejaculatory duct obstruction and a congenital absence of the vas deferens. This is common with cystic fibrosis carriers, but he doesn't have cystic fibrosis. IVF #1 with TESE/ICSI (Antagonist protocol) Aug 2014=BFN (poor embryo quality) IVF #2 ICSI long lupron protocol November 2014
Re: Calling CallaLily30
After PGD testing, we wound up with 16 normals from this cycle! The long lupron protocol was much, much better for me. We started the Follistim at the same dose as the first two cycles but wound up decreasing it quite a bit during the cycle.
My RE also has me on a gluten free, dairy free diet (I was on low carb for the first two cycles) so I'm not sure if it was the protocol or the diet but I'm very happy. I also took Vitamin D during this cycle.

Wishing you best of luck!
We had planned a freeze all but I wound up with a case of OHSS. Due to the OHSS, my RE wanted us to take a break for a natural cycle before our FET. If AF cooperates, we will do a FET in Dec but may have to wait for January based on when she shows up.
