Hi Lisa,

I am doing my first IVF cycle now (had embryo transfer yesterday so now on the 2ww).
Anyway I was on 225 gonal-F.

I had 12 eggs collected on Monday but only 3 of those fertilized and only 1 was developing properly by the time I had my embryo transfer on Wednesday. They have told me they are going to let the other 2 grow for a few more days and see how they look then but I may end up with no frozen embies (so really have to hope this one takes as I don't want to go through the whole thing again).

I think the dosage of Gonal-F depends on your age and how your body has responded to other hormones in the past. I was also on clomid in the past and only ever ended up with one egg per cycle and obviously seeing the results of my cycle now I think if I had been on less than 225 I may well have ended up with no embryos. By the way I am 36.

What other drugs are you on? I was on synarel nasal spray and am now on cristone vaginal gel (progesterone support).

Best wishes
Lori
