Infertility

Survived my first injection-HA after Lupron

And the injection itself was no big deal!!! I really shocked myself!

I do have quite the headache from the Lupron. Any suggestions to ease the annoyance?

  • Tylenol and a nap. The first one is the hardest - congrats on getting through it! I got headaches fr the first few days and then they tapered off - I hope it gets better for you!
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • Sorry I didn't get a headache from mine. I was really nervous about the injection too! The needle was huge and they kept saying, "Make sure you're totally relaxed. This will really hurt if you tense up."

  • Glad it went well.  I have migraines to begin with and my RE didn't want me taking my migraine meds while in the middle of an IVF cycle.  So, I tried Tylenol a few times and it didn't do anything so I just dealt with them.  Hopefully yours will get better!

  • Congrats on getting through the first one! After my first one, I couldn't believe I did it!

  • Way to go!! I have my 1st Lupron injection tomorrow evening!
  • Yes

    No real advice on the headache.  You can try sleeping it off but for me, sometimes I would still have it when I woke up.  I seriously think I had a headache continuously for about 7 days this cycle.  I just suffered through it.
