Ladies who used injectables

Hi ladies, I'm visiting from TTTC. I hope I don't sound to silly, but I need some help.

I will be starting my injectables my next cycle and I'm wondering what I am in for. I don't know what I will be using yet, I will find out at the end of the week/beginning of next week.  Can you give me an example of what you did.  Also how many follies did you have and how many babies do you have?

Any information is greatly appreciated.

Re: Ladies who used injectables

  • I was on a combination of femara (days 3-7) and follistim (days 5-12). I ended up having two large follies on the day of IUI and both took. Good luck!
  • If you go down a few posts, you'll see that someone just asked about Gonal-F.  You can see my response there. 

    Good luck!

  • I did menopur with tamoxifen and metformin with no success. We moved on to follistim after two menopur cycles and it really worked for me. I did follistim, tamoxifen and was on metformin. I had two big follies on the day of my IUI and I now have 4 month old triplets. Best of luck to you!
  • I used Repronex with a long/slow stim protocol (I ended up with OHSS on my first injection cycle and over 100 follies). I felt great while on the Repronex - I literally had more energy than I had ever had in my entire life during those 2-ish weeks. It was awesome! (I was also on metformin and actos through my whole t-ttc saga)

    I had 3 follies the day of my IUI - 1 20mm and 2 13mm. My RE considered the 13mm follies fertile because just that week he had a triplet pregnancy from 11 mm follies. Anyway, only 1 of my eggs fertilized but it split.

    Good luck! I hope this is your lucky cycle!

  • i replied to the gonal-f post...so you can take a peek there. ?i used gonal-f + ovidrel + IUI. ?i had 6 follies (4 over 21, 2 over 18). ?i have twins. ?HTH
  • Thank you so much ladies!
  • I'm late getting here, but I used menapur our last round and I had 5 good follicles.  It was our 3rd round. I can say that it was the worst to inject, it burned going in.  I would ice the spot before DH injected it. 

    It worked! Best of luck!

  • I was on Femara (cd3-7) and Gonal F injection (cd 5-12) Triggered on cd 13 with follies at 18,18, 19 and 20(all considered mature). Had twins. :)

    Good Luck!?

  • Gosh I can't remember all of it, I did injectibles a few times-finally with IVF. I think the cycle that worked I had 12 follies and we ended up with 8 good ones.  We implanted 2 with IVF and have 4 on ice.
  • I did Menopur and Femara. ?I had two follies at the time of IUI. ?Now we have two little ones on the way.

    Good luck and keep us updated!!?

  • I took repronex and did double IUIs. Each time I had 5 or 6 mature follicles.  First was BFN, second time I got DD, and third time... well, I haven't updated my siggie, but it's twins.
