Antagonist - Vivelle Protocol?

We are getting ready to start IVF #3 at SGF in Rockville. Looking like a mid June retreival/transfer. Has anyone done this protocol before? If so, did you see better results? Any insight would be great!

Re: Antagonist - Vivelle Protocol?

  • Is your protocol doing estrogen patches to prime with an antagonist? I did that protocol (also know as the schoyer protocol) and it gave me my best results (see my siggy details). It has worked great for a lot of ladies with low AMH/DOR. Best Wishes!!

  • Thank you!  Yes, it is with estrogen patches. Thank you for letting me know it is also known as schoyer protocol. This will help with my googling :)
