Woot, AF finally came so just like myturn I am officially CD1!!!! Eeekkkk, Puregon injections start tomorrow!!!! Does anyone have any advice as to what time I should do the injections??? Apparently there can be some side effects so I thought I would ask if anyone has found a 'perfect' timing schedule!
Thanks guys!!! xxxx
Hi Juniper, I am on CD13. I went to see my FS last week, he said he suggest me to do the stimulation cycle and then transfer in a natural cycle, this way will increase 5% more chance because I was sick for progesterone, so he said my body might have enough progesterone myself. I might do the stimulation cycle in November cycle (I have not decided it yet), the doctor said the trigger he will use the different medicine, it will affact my line (i think it refers to the lining), so the transfer will be in the other fresh cycle.
Does anyone do the FET in a natural cycle? It means I don't need to use progesterone after transfer, is it right? Should I still need a little bit progesterone support?
Anyway, Monash IVF is going to have a nutrition and fertility seminar on 13th of November in Hawthorn Melbourne, I am going to attend it. If anyone is interested in, you can register it on the following web.

Rosemarry, the FET I did last cycle was a natural FET. I still used progesterone pessaries after transfer, but I don't think they're essential (kind of just an extra boost, which I was happy to have because I think my natural progesterone levels may be low lately). You could always get your progesterone level tested at 7dpo to see if it's high enough and only use the pessaries if your level is low.
Jo, I always did my injections (puregon and gonal-f) in the morning. Your Dr should have given you instructions since the timing usually depends upon their preferences.
Woohoo myturn and Jo for being CD1!! I did my puregon injections in the morning too Jo, my gonal F or orgalutran injections were always in the evening. I always got my instructions from my IVF nurse.
Hi to everyone in here, I hope you're all travelling ok
AFM, I have my IVF nurse app. on Tuesday to pick up my drugs. Our finances for the new business are still not in order, with new things popping up all the time to pay, lawyers, finance brokers, etc, I really hope there is enough money for us to do a cycle in Nov. I will be so devastated if we have to move it out, again.

congrats to jo and myturn for getting ur af! Im having pretty bad side effects from the metformin.diareohea mainly and cramping quite painful. Taking imodium to try n help. I was just wandering if anyone else who is on it had this side effect at first then your body got use to it? Because i dont want to stop it if its helping me.
Thanks Wish, Miss B and Juniper! My IVF nurse hasn't told me when to do the injections yet... I'll try to give her a call in the morning! I had heard others on another forum say to do them at night to sleep through any bad side effects so I just thought I would ask you lovely women to see what you do...
Wish: I wouldn't take immodium to help with the diarrhoea... Speak to your FS an get their opinion, but at uni we were told that immodium can cause lots if problems if used continuously... Try eating more fibre and protein and less fat rich foods... Hope this helps!!!
