Hi

Just wondering if anyone might know about synarel and stopping AF? I started Synarel 7 days ago on a down-regulated IVF cycle. Am due to have a blood test on 11 Jan and start Gonal-F shortly thereafter.

When I picked up the Synarel (approx 7 days post ovulation) I said what happens if I am pregnant and should I have a blood test first to rule pregnancy out. The nurse said no, just take synarel, you won't be taking it for long enough to cause a problem if you are pregnant.

So I started taking it and my period was due Thurs. Today is Fri and it hasn't arrived and not even a show of any kind to warn of its impending arrival. I did a HPT yesterday and today and it was negative.

Does anyone know if Synarel can, after 6 days of taking it, stop my period from coming? I don't know whether to just stop taking the Synarel. I have read a lot about Synarel being contraindicated in pregnancy. The clinic said they wouldn't do a pregnancy test on me. I have also read about Synarel messing with hormornes so if you are pregnant it can cause it to miscarry.

Just a bit confused as to what to do. I will call them in the morning and not take it tonight I think.

Look forward to hearing from anyone who might know something about this.
