Infertility

Consult went well!

Ok ladies! I finally have a plan (I am way too OCD to not know whats next at all times).

IUI w/ Injects- I am going to be using Gonal-F 75IU to start and at day 7 they will either stay at that dose or bump me up to 150IU. I FINALLY get to do baseline bloodwork and ultrasound and then have multiple monitoring appts throughout that cycle (YAY!). Also I will switching to Ovidrel from HCG because it is subq and I can give it to myself! (Dr said he doesnt like ovidrel as well but we will give it a try.)

Also, for those of you I was talking about progesterone supplements with I am going to be doing a second Ovidrel injection  at 7dpO to boost progesterone..... RE said that he likes to do a booster injection better than suppositories to see if that can be enough.

Now all I need is for AF to get here so we can get this show on the road. I AM SO HAPPY! 

 

Any advice for me  ladies?!

Re: Consult went well!

  • Fantastic news!

    I'm currently taking Gonal-F.  RE had me at 75 IU, but has now bumped me up to 112.5.  I go for my second follicle check tomorrow.

    Good luck to you, hon!

    Thank you IVF for our little miracles!!
  • Glad you have a plan! This cycle I was on 75iu gonal-f too. (for TI, not IUI though). I stayed on that dosage CD 3-13 and had my trigger on CD 11 (my doc wanted me to do a couple extra days on the gonal-f after trigger so my follies didn't shrink/shrivel up from the withdrawal - he wanted to give me every chance to ovulate a mature egg). I had 1 mature follie at trigger, with a slight chance that a second might catch up (not likely, given how slow of a responder I am, but always a possibility). 

    Good luck! Always nice to get your plan worked out...
