Lupron clarification?

Ok, can someone please tell me the difference in the following. On my medication list, my nurse listed this:

Lupron 2 week kit with 1ml luerlock syringe, 27 g ? ? needle - ?Trigger? subcutaneous. (Single dose of Lupron in a small vial may also be prescribed and/or dispensed)

 She sent the order to a pharmacy and their list shows this:

 Leuprolide "trigger" 4mg/0.8ml....it cuts off there

 Are these the same thing? Or is the 2 week thing separate from the trigger? Obviously I'll ask my nurse too but I thought maybe you guys could offer some quicker advice. :o) Thanks!

 

Our Novel of TTC:

*Male Factor (low count and low motility), High Prolactin, and Polycystic Ovaries (March 2013)
*Recurrent Miscarriage testing also revealed high anti-phospholipids & single MTHFR mutation. (Feb 2014) 

*IVF (07/2013): BFP-Natural Miscarriage @ 5 weeks* <3 Madison Riley <3
*FET #1 (10/2013): BFN
*FET #2 (12/2013)- BFP-Missed Miscarriage at 8 weeks <3 Kyle Andrew <3
*Chromosomes and Karotyping tests were both normal.We lost a healthy baby boy :(
*FET #3 (04/2014) was cancelled after finding Chronic Endometritis
*Miraculous BFP July 2014!! (I was taking baby aspirin and Cabergoline to stay regulated while "taking a break from TTC" and waiting to consult with a reproductive immunologist!!!) 

Our healthy baby girl was born 03/10/15 thanks to daily Lovenox injections and baby aspirin. There are no words for how grateful I am for our rainbow baby. <3

    Yup, same thing. For the trigger I only needed 80 units but the vial the pharmacy sent contained way more than that which went unused. Presumably that's what's considered a 2 week kit.




    dx:  Unexplained IF
     TTC since May 2011, 1 year trying, and then 3 TI, 2 IUI = BFN
    IVF #1 (May 2013):  Antagonist Protocol: 
    24R, 18M, 15F w/ICSI; 5dt of 2 early blasts, no frosties = BFN
     IVF #2 (August 2013):  Lupron Stop Protocol: 
    28R, 23M, 15F w/ICSI; 5dt of 1 partially hatched blast, 7 frosties = BFP
    EDD 5/23/14, blighted ovum (6w6d), D&C (8w6d)
    FET #1 (April 2014):  transferred 2 5d blasts = BFP
