Secondary IF

IVF #1 Cancelled

Well, I went back to my Dr's office to see if I had suppressed any from Tuesday. Recap: On Tuesday, I went for my suppression ultrasound and was "breaking through" the BC and the lupron. I even had a 17 follicle in there and my lining was thickening. So we immediately stopped the bc, continued the lupron, and they hoped that with some bleeding I could shed some lining and the follicles would reduce.

Today, not only had they not reduced but they had grown significantly. Ironically, I responded exponentially better to the birth control and lupron than I EVER did with the letrozole. I have FOUR, 3 mature and 1 close to it follicles growing. The 17 from Tuesday? Is a 25 today. My lining is at an 8. Insane.

So, even though IVF #1 is cancelled, I triggered with the Ovidrel in my fridge, we're going to hump like rabbits this weekend, and I'll start progesterone on Tuesday.

Here's hoping that the cycle I get pregnant is the one where I took birth control.

If not, we'll start IVF #1.5 in two weeks. She said they'll have me take 2 bc pills a day and a different type of Lupron. I didn't catch the name of it, but we're hoping to actually suppress me next time.
