Hello ladies,

I'm on my first round of IVF, and mostly excited, but a bit stressed too..

I've read stories about telling "the boss" and like some others, I'm in a difficult position with some sexist male superiors (who, because of my age and management position, have already made several inappropriate comments asking me if I'm off the pill, or if I'm pregnant, in social settings at the office!! Or even how long its a good time to be married before starting a family..) So - needless to say, at the moment, I'm keeping the IVF to myself...

But I'm day 7 of lucrin, waiting for AF, and now have a huge project that's coming up requiring me to be in Sydney for 2 days at the end of the month, possibly right in the middle of collection and/or transfer!


So - I suppose my questions are:

1. How long is AF usually delayed on lucrin?
2. How long after period starts do you start FSH?
3. Can you delay start of FSH to delay collection/transfer.

I'm really wound up about it - and feel a bit helpless, and would love to hear from anyone having gone through something similar?

Thanks for any insights, and best of luck to all the women out there.
-Gigi.


Our story: TTC 18+ months, and after XX tests and the rest, and seemingly unexplained infertility, found out DH has issue with morphology (0%) so directly to IVF / ICSI.
