Infertility

stimming for IVF

How long did you stim for IVF?  I will start on Sat. with 150 Bravelle and 150 Menapur.  Also, when did you do your HCG?  Can you do a stim and HCG on same night? 

Thanks!

Re: stimming for IVF

  • hcg is a trigger, and is given after you are done with stims

  • I stimmed for 13 days... although that is usually the long end of it.

  • On average, a person can stim about 10 nights. I stimmed for 8 days with my first and 9 with my second.

    As Cait said, once you are ready for the HCG shot, they will have you stopping stims. 

    Good luck!

  • I stimmed for 10 1/2  days with Follistim.  I did one stim shot the morning of my HCG but not one in the same evening.  My HCG was on day 11 of stims.
  • I stimmed for 10 days too and the HCG was given the next day. I also had to do an extra HCG booster shot on Day 12 to increase my levels.
