New here... Starting first Bravelle injection tonight. Anyone else use Bravelle?

Hi everyone,
     I just joined to make some connections with people who are in the same boat. The fertility specialist has called our fertility unexplained. We have had all tests done and it appears that we are both OK. I start Bravelle shots tonight. I will also be using the Ovidrel shot.  Because of my age I decided to see a fertility specialist after a year of us trying to get pregnant. I'm excited and nervous all in one. I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.

    Hello and welcome! I am not cycling right now but have been there before. I just wanted to wish you well. Bravelle is a common drug and works well for many. You will be ok :) Let us know how you fair.

    I just had my third iui on sunday taking clomid and doing the bravelle injections with ovidrel trigger shot. We did three iui's before that with just clomid no injections or trigger. Good luck!

    I just finished my second round of Bravelle and the first time wasn't bad. I was on a 75ml injection without any side effects. This time though my doctor upped the dosage to 150ml and every night I did the shot I had a headache that lasted until the morning (not a bad one but it was there) and I was nauseous. I gave myself the shot at night so that I wasn't feeling gross all day.

    Good luck!

    @Meghan_098 I was on 75ml and I had this lingering headache for a week. Good luck! :)
