Infertility

One last ? for today and I'll stop posting!!!

Sorry, i know i'm newer to this board, so sorry if i'm already annoying! One last question for today and then i will stop.

I just finished my AF last night. Starting BCP tomorrow and supposed to continue until 2/13/13 at which point i start Lupron. Then start stimms on 2/18/13 with ER estimated to be march 1st.

Will I cycle again? Starting the Lupron will be right around when i should start new cycle.  I wasn't sure if that will make me skip my AF.

Sorry if this is a silly question. I have questions written down to ask dr when we go in on 2/8/13, but this was really confusing me and I didn't want to wait. TIA!

Re: One last ? for today and I'll stop posting!!!

  • Yup.  The Lupron is most likely scheduled to start on Day 21 of this cycle.  You'll do that for about a week then stims will start Day 1 of your next cycle.  Are you supposed to call your RE office on the next Day 1?

  • Yes, you can expect a period toward the beginning of stims for a few days. I think most people get a little shorter and lighter period then. Btw, keep asking questions, I don't think it bothers anyone at all!

  • I had my period come 2-3 days after I stopped the BCPs, while I was still on the Lupron and starting stims.

    GL to you! And don't worry about the questions, it's an overwhelming process and we've all been there!!
