    Hi Ladies, sorry I haven't been around for a while. I've had a hectic time at work and no opportunity to get onto the BB threads. Thank you for your support re my cancelled cycle. To update you, the cancellation did not go ahead!!!! A BT the following day showed that my levels were dropping but they were just taking their sweet time. Finally on Sat they confirmed that I was officially supressed and I have now had two puregon injections with my first scan booked for Wed morning.

    Will I potentially have an idea of how many eggs I have by Wed??? Also, today I'm noticing that I am urinating like there's no tomorrow. My bladder feels continuously full. I haven't had no more than normal to drink and am needing the bathroom at least once an hour before I feel like I'm going to explode. Is this something to be concerned about? I can't seem to find frequent urination as a side effect of puregon!?!

    To those of you asking questions about the various types of cycles I don't even know what I'm having (synarel starting on CD22 and just started puregon two days ago) . I might have to do my research on the different types of cycles that can be done in IVF so we can all be on the same page.

    I apologise that I haven't had the opportunity to catch up on everyone's posts since I was last here but wanted to wish everyone all the best for whatever stage you are at. Will try to check in more frequently!!!!

    Well guys we went for our scan and we only have 4 promising follicles. 1 x 14mm 2 x 11 on the right side. 1 x 12 and couple of smaller ones that probably wont get any bigger. Dr said that the 14mm one is the dominate follicle and that it is probably sucking up all the FSH. We have to go back on Friday for another scan and keep up with 300iu Gonal-F and Lucrin. By Friday it will be 15 days of stims...not looking good for IVF so it is most likely that we will have to convert this cycle to IUI instead. At least we will have 4 follies and a brand new sperm donor. Hopefully this will be just the change we need. Sorry for no personals this morning, just wanted to update, I'm at work...Feeling a little dissapointed about converting to IUI. We have done 11 IUI's already and usually triggered by day 12 and insemination of day 14, not day 18....Our last IUI was with 4 follicles also and nothing happened............
