Infertility

IVF Ladies - A Question

I go in tomorrow for my suppression check.  It is just b/w though and no u/s. 

Yesterday was my last day of BCPs after being on them almost 5weeks because I had cysts.  I went in last week (before starting the lupron) and he said the cysts were gone and counted the follies so do you think that is why I don't have to have an u/s tomorrow?

The nurse said as long as my b/w looks good, I will start stimming on Thursday.  I am just nervous that somehow the lupron caused cysts but I guess maybe the b/w would show that?

Ahhhh this process is making me nutty!  I know I should just trust what they tell me to do but I am worry too much.

Re: IVF Ladies - A Question

  • I know I hear ya lady. I can't help but question things either like checking my b/w and looking at the different levels and how they have changed and what it might mean. I am sorry I don't have an answer to your question.

  • I think that if you have a cyst, you should have elevated estrogen that will show in your b/w.  Good Luck tomorrow!

    He is!  Which is why I shouldn't be questioning this but I am just so terrified something is going to go wrong and this cycle is going to be canceled.  It is sillly...

    It's not silly at all! What about writing Dr. Z a quick e-mail? I've heard he responds super fast.

  • For my first IVF, I had an u/s the day I started lupron.  The sonographer told me if I didn't have any cysts that day, then I should be good for my entire IVF cycle.  I did not have another u/s before starting my stims so I'm sure if your b/w comes back fine, you are good to go!

    GL!
