So, one of the nurses from my RE's office just called me to tell me that instead of me going in for my first bloodwork & ultra sound tomorrow, I need to go Monday morning & I will be starting stimming on Monday...I'll be on CD4....isn't that odd? Has anyone else ever started their stims on CD4. I'm worried but she said this was exactly what my RE said....

    I don't know about the timelines- but I just wanted to say sorry you have to wait! How frustrating :(

    I started stims on CD 4 this current cycle. I was having terrible pain from cysts and went to the doctor. Turned out to also be CD1 so they took bloodwork. My progesterone was still too high on Cd1 so I had to come back on CD4 to make sure it had gone down before I started stimming.  Not sure if IVF is different for starting stims..

    TTC #1 since 8/1/10; Me:41 and BRCA1+, DH:46
    DOR (FSH 24.3)/ terrible egg quality ; homozygous MTHFR c677t
    5 IUI's: 2/11 to 6/11 and 1/12= BFN
    OE IVF#1-4 8/11-6/12= all BFN
    DE IVF#1 11/12 bad embryos= BFN
    DE IVF #2 2/13 BFP/Beta hell: m/c 5w6d
    CFNBC 7 months, not doing well; decided on guarantee program at RBA w/frozen DE
    DE IVF #3 1/14  ET 4BB; BFP;M/C 5w1d, incomplete m/c; MVA extraction in ER 7w1d

    DE FET#1 ET 3/1714; BFP, beta 1 3/27= 197, beta 2 3/31= 1586, beta 3 4/7= 13879!!

    I usually start stims for my IVF cycle even later than CD4.  I'm always told that isn't a problem.  Good luck!

    Thanks, ladies! I guess I am just worrying for nothing cause I've never gone through IVF before. I'm sure my RE knows what he's doing! I need to just relax! Thank you!

    I started on day 4 as well. 

    Unless given reason not to, trust your doctor.  This process will be way too stressful if you second guess each decision :)
