Ladies who took lupron....

What CD did you start it?

I am a little puzzled. My cycles are usually 24-28 days. I saw my RE on CD 16 and he said I was just about to ovulate, probably later that day. So he said to come to come back in 1 week after ovulation and I will start lupron. That will be CD 23 for me. Now I know that my cycle will be at least 26 days long due to the time that I ovulated, then will be prolonged a little due to taking lupron. But overall I would be on lupron only a week or so before I get AF again? Does that sound normal to you?

With my first 2 IVFs, I started lupron on CD 16 after ovulation was confirmed. With my 3rd IVF, it was all messed up and pushed back due to BCPs and stuff so I can't get a clear picture from that one. That IVF and this current one is with a new RE. I realize I should have asked him this directly but of course I wasn't thinking clearly until I left the office.

    Thanks ladies! Maybe I will re-post tomorrow night to see if anyone else has any experiences. I guess BCP is the norm but for me, it was a no-go.

    I will email you tomorrow Niki!

    def. email me tomorrow. Sounds like you are doing Long Lupron without the BCP, start Lupron, get a period, start stims on new CD3 (which would be about day 10 of Lupron). But what the hell do I know ??? :)

    Yeah sounds like it, its just that I never was on lupron for such a short time before I got AF again. It is just different for me...we shall elaborate tomorrow!

    This sounds kinda like what I did for my first IVF. I wouldn't worry about it and just do what the doc says. Good luck!

    Initially, I wasn't on BCP and my RE wanted me to start Lupron on CD 21. But I had a feeling I hadn't O'ed yet, so I went in for Blood work and sure enough I hadn't. I did bloodwork 2 days later and still no sign of O. I was placed on BCP then, and started Lupron a week later ( I was on BCP for 12 days).

    That sounds about right. I go on CD21 for a blood draw to confirm O. Then I start Lupron on CD22. My RE has me on Lupron for at least ten days (even if AF comes) or until CD2. Then I go in for a suppression check.

    Lupron is either added while on BCP or post ovulation.  Your schedule sounds totally normal to me.
