possums - 12 hourly is ideal - but i don't think there are many people on here who've been able to maintain that they whole time they've used synarel!
i found if i was late (so in this instance 90 minutes) i'd take the next dose half that amount of time later (so 45 min) and then back to normal tomorrow. it's not ideal, but sometimes circs can get beyond your control and you just have no choice!
don't stress babe - if you were being irregular the whole time, it might impact, but i doubt one or two later doses will matter
I don't think it matters too much. I hope not. But this round I've been a bit slack with my timings for both Synarel and Puregon on a few occaisions and, not to worry you, but have had to have my puregon dosage doubled and it's taking longer for the follicles to grow than last time. But the Synarel is to suppress your natural hormones, so I think it's more of an issue when you get to the injection stage as you don't want your natural hormone level rising and releasing the eggs before EPU.
Hmmm, I guess I should be a little more dilligent!
Hi Possums - I don't know the answer but my guess is that it shouldn't matter - it is designed to stay in your system for AT LEAST 12 hours and I assume there's definitely a margin of error built in. I had trouble remembering all my shots/sniffs/pills as well. I programed recurring alarms into every electronic device I have (phone, work PDA, work calendar etc.) and that really helped - alarms going off all the time which I'm sure drove peopel crazy, but I didn't forget! I do know that the timing of the trigger shot is very sensitive - so this is the one that I'd make sure to do right on time.
Just wanted to pop back in Possums and let you know that I got to scheduling of the EPU (Friday this week, WHOOT!) so I think the situation is that if you take the Synarel a bit late then it could take a bit longer for things to happen, but they'll still happen, IYKWIM?
Good luck with this round, we're all thinking of you over in our little first IVF round thread
good luck to both of you (Possums & Meo) - it would make me so happy for this to be your cycle!
Possums - I am going to be away and probably not checking/posting much during the key parts of your cycle - I will be thinking about you and sending sticky vibes from overseas!
