i had 2 eggs on the dosage for the previous cycle, so i am nervous about what will happen this time with a higher dose. I know the RE is just being aggressive, but it's still a little scary......but nothing has worked so far, so i probably shouldnt worry too much.
i am going to try to cut out as much sugar and 'bad' carbs as possible this cycle , mainly in preparation for IVF--which will be in june if this fails. blah, who wants to cut out chocolate when they are stressed?
Re: inject cycle #3 (IUI #5) starting Sunday, but with a doubled dose.
Good luck with your stims. I hear ya though, when it takes as long to happen as its takes for us, we can't help but figure, "Nothings worked yet, so lets go!".
I am also trying to cut out refinded sugar and carbs, but mostly for health benefits... I haven't looked much into IVF yet. I'm planning on saving that for July/Aug if the next few months fail... why is it you have to cut carbs for IVF?
Thanks and GL!!!
oh well i have PCOS, so low carb is really good for my ovulation/ egg quality et al.
