IVF moms

Did you do aspirin therapy at all when you started your inj?  My RE said it could help, but since I am allergic to Advil/ibuprofen (broke out in hives), I am kinda scared to take it since it has Nsaids in it.  I only took an Advil once, so I'm not sure if it is the ibuprofen or the nsaids that I am allergic too.  I was thinking about taking half of one and if I break out, take a Benedryl.

If you took it, do you think it helped?

    My RE has all his patients on 1 baby aspirin a day. 

    did you already start stims?  I'd be tempted to try it beforehand. Otherwise, I'd see what the RE says. Not sure about taking benadryl during IVF.

    There are other blood thinners you can take, but I think they're all injections.

    Well I just took one to see what happens and so far nothing.  I read that aspirin and Aleve both have Nsaids in them and I've taken Aleve before with no problem, so I figured what the heck.

    I start Micro-Lupron on 6/3 and Gonal/Menopur on 6/5.

    BTW...I just read your blog...it's great.  I am so not looking forward to the progesterone oil shots.  I too have given myself shots while on the road in the car...fun huh!

    Glad you didn't have a reaction, and thanks for reading the blog! The PIO are so scary to look at but really not so bad, imo. (well, they weren't for me!)

    My Dh wont give me inj in my tummy, but I am hoping he will at least give me that one.  Maybe he will if I say I can't reach.  I just watched a lady give herself one on youtube...it hurts watching the video.  I gonna look like a druggie with all my bruises.

    I just saw that your FET is on 6/22.  If everything goes great, that should be the same day for my D5et.  Crossing my fingers for you!  GL!
