Bravelle users come in please!

Hey everyone.  Hope you're having a great weekend.  I had yet another monitoring appt this morning and unfortunately my follies didn't grow too much since Friday.  I got a call this afternoon to take 75ml (?) of Bravelle tonight and tomorrow night and then go in again on Tuesday to see where they are.

This will be my first time using Bravelle and other than re-watching the injection video, is there anything I should know about it?  Any side effects, any tips, etc?  

I'm a little nervous about mixing everything but I know it won't be too difficult.  I just hope this stuff helps things along!  Thanks in advance!

    Hi hon I took it mixed with menopur and I responded well. I had no side affects oh wait yes I was tired, but I'm on so many meds hard to tell which make me exhausted... I found clomid to be much worse in comparison... 

    GL hon...

    Thank you!  Hopefully I won't have any more side effect than just being tired... I'm already tired so it won't be much of a change;)

    This was my first cycle doing injections (Bravelle 75iu) and honestly, they were a piece of cake.  Pretty painless and I didn't have any side effects.  Some girls like to numb the area with ice first, but I didn't even bother.

    I was on Bravelle and didn't have any problems or s/e. I was a little nervous the first time I had to reconstitute it and give myself the shot but everything was fine.  I had to do as many as 6 vials/day, so if you're doing 75iu, you should be fine. GL!

    Thanks again ladies!  The mixing part was fine (and since I'm a dork, I actually had fun doing it:P).  The injection on the other hand... HURT, and then proceeded to burn for the next 1/2 hour.  I'm not sure that me standing up had anything to do with it, but I'm going to try to lay down for the one tonight and see if it makes a difference. 

     

    For now, I'm just hoping it's doing something! I'd REALLY like to have the IUI sometime this week:P
