I'm ordering menopur from ivfmeds.com the other day and a few of you suggested that I ask on here about Q-Caps before buying them. Unfortunately, they do not come with the Menopur from IVFmeds.com, but saving over $2,000 ordering from them. I appreciate any help! Thank you!
HSG:3-23-11:Tubes clear
4/21 and 4/22 IUI #1 = BFN
6/11 and 6/12 IUI #2 = BFN
7/06 and 7/07 IUI #3 w/50mg Clomid + Ovidrel = BFN
7/29 and 7/30 IUI #4 w/50mg Clomid + Ovidrel = BFN
IVF 1= 1 egg retrieved= dead egg
ENDO
I don't even use the Q-caps and you can totally do without them. I just use the mixing needle to draw up the fluid and inject into the vial and suck back up again. Then take off the mixing needle for the smaller injection needle.

THIS. I have one box of Menopur that came with Qcaps and one that didn't. Using the mixing needle is the same as what I will have to do with the Novarel trigger.

My IVF Journey
I use a needle for mixing the medications but have plently of q caps that you can use if you need them. If I remember correctly the IVFmeds.com bottles were glass vials and would not work with the Q caps.
PM me if you would like me to send you the q caps I have, I am happy to share.

After 6 years of failed cycles, we were blessed with our little man through adoption.
Ditto what the others said about not needing q-caps. My nurse told me that using the needle to mix was a better way to make sure I was getting every last drop.

i have a ton of q caps and willing to share, let me know and I can send them to you.
