Trouble TTC

Ordering Trigger

Where do you normally purchase your HCG Trigger? I know there are some online pharmacies I've seen mentioned here, but I'm not sure if I have time to order. I misunderstood at my CD3 u/s because I thought I'd be purchasing the trigger at the office when I come in for mid-cycle. Instead I have to bring it in with me and today is CD11. Eeek! How did I mess up already!

Do local places like Walgreens, CVS, or Walmart keep this kind of thing in stock? 

UPDATE: I talked to my RE's office and they connected me with a fantastic local-ish pharmacy (1 hour away) that specializes in fertility meds. They were wonderful to work with and its only going to be $63 (no ins)! I decided to have them overnight it so I'm not worried about it coming too late, and that was only $10 more. Whew I feel better now.

Re: Ordering Trigger

  • I took my RX to Rite Aid but they had to order it, I think it was there in the afternoon the following day. They didn't have it in stock.

    I have insurance so CVS caremark is who I order through - I place order over phone and they deliver next day. Most here order from freedom fertility - they overnight it.
    Me: 32, DH: 34.
    Trying since Jan 2011. Unexplained IF.
    2 IUIs = BFN.
    1 IVF (Dec 2013) = BFN.
    FET, 2 frosties (June 13, 2014)

    Twin Girls - 02/11/15 - at 37 weeks (no NICU, home with me at 3 days).
  • Ok I'm glad to hear Freedon fertility overnights it. Question for those who use this pharmacy: is this what I need to purchase?

    HCG Inj 10000U (Price without 300IU FSH or 10+ Menopur vials in 2012 is $89.90 per vial. Both prices require enrollment in HEART program.) 

    Essentially I'm saying that I don't know what any of that means in the parenthese. This below is exactly what my prescription says:

     HCG 10,000 IU

    Dispense : 1 vial

    Sig: 10000 IU I.M.

    Those are other IF injectables. You do not need those, so I'm thinking that it means HCG is 89.90. I would call and ask.

  • I just got the call from Walgreens Specialty that my hcg will ship today and be here tomorrow.  With my progesterone supps, my total was around $65.  I think their hcg injection is around $59 OOP.
