IVF ladies, come in! (sig warning)

I'm curious what time you do your stims.  My irrational mind says that doing my stims after dinner (which is what I did last time) may not be a good idea.  Like the food is going to interfere with absorption or something.  

 What do you do?

My previous RE said to do them between 6-8pm - so I did mine at 7pm.   My current RE said to do them at 9pm.   I think the main issue is ensuring that you are doing them at a consistent time everyday.  I always did mine after dinner

GL!

I always did mine at 8:00 pm.  This was mostly because I make DH give me the shots, and he has a weird schedule, but is always home by 8.

B0th of my RE's said between 5-8. I always did them after work around 5:30/ 6 pm.

My RE suggests my lupron at 7 then my stims between 8 and 9.  I will be doing them at 6 and then at 8.

My RE had me do them in the morning at first, so from 6-9 AM.  Towards the end he had me doing the Menopur between 6-9 AM and the Follistim between 6-9 PM.

The first time I was only stimming once per day and did it at seven.  The second time I stimmed I was doing a morning shot and an evening shot so I did 9 and 9.  It's the only 12-hour interval I'm always awake for...

I did my morning injections at 6:45 and my evening injections at 6:45, so they were 12 hours a part. I usually had dinner after the injections were given.

I was also told by my old re to do them between 6 and 9 and we would usually do them around 8. I don't think dinner should interfere. I'm pretty sure at some time I did them closer to dinner. GL

I was given pretty strict instructions about when to take stims.  Between 4-7pm and usually just did it when I got home from work.  Since your stims aren't oral, when you eat really had little to no effect.   When you do it, you get a boost in blood flow in your abdominal cavity which if anything could speed up distribution.

Good luck!
