Lalalori, Dovkav I hope your lone rangers stick. Don't drive yourselves crazy, hang in there!! It only takes one!!
Jessica, I'm in the same boat as you.. long FET, I started Lupron on Thursday, and our transfer is tentatively for 11/16 or 11/17, so that will be about 38/39 days into the cycle. My RE said that with FET, you have almost a two week window after your lining is ready and asked me to decide when I wanted the transfer to happen, "Select a date that is important or significant to you in some way, we can do that according to your wish"
Disney I'm going to be on Medrol too (Nasty water retention, but no other side effect that I recall) for the 4 days upto transfer and also an antibiotic : Cipro 500mg to make sure my system is infection free at the time of transfer. For the Progesterone / Estrogen though, they will put me on IM shots starting 10/28, no more Crinone I believe.
I'm not sure if I should be happy or sad about that, cos' Crinone usage is painless but the stinging and day long messiness, clumps, etc.... I certainly won't be missing those!
Seriously, how bad are the PIO and Delestrogen intramuscular shots? I'm really scared!!
Also, I did some research and found Lupron causes bone loss, and hence the otherwise unexplained aches... I think I finally found an explanation to my sudden toothache that started immediately the day after the first Lupron shot ; and also the weird pain in the collarbone, the shoulder blades... Atleast now I can manage with painkillers until my system gets used to it, without worrying about needing expensive dental treatments in the middle of an FET / IVF cycle!!!
my AMH dropped to .30 from .53. So it doesnt look good. But I wont give up. Im going to try again. Next cycle November. My RE is preparing a different protocol.
I strongly dislike the "clumps" and buildup that the Crinone creates.
