miloro - its the hormones, don't worry. It sends us all a little crazy.
afm - nothing much to report first injection of pregnyl was ok. Watching my weight and drinking powerade and eating salty food lol.. Amazing I dropped nearly 1kg overnight! I am hopeless at remembering to take my tablets and I can't take them on an empty tummy. Gah, the tww is the worst!
Hi all, looks like I ovulated yesterday, but need another BT today to confirm it. They are thinking transfer will be Friday or Saturday, but most likely Friday. BRING IT ON!!! I cant wait to have them back in me. We caved and DTD yesterday too. DH surprised me (in more ways than one lol) and was keen to do it. He said with all the CoQ10 and stuff we have been doing he figures it cant help to try naturally as well. So with DTD, two being put back in and one dividing, surely 1 out of 4 possible bubbas should freaking stick!!! (does this mean my TWW starts now, geez, its going to be the longest 3 week wait ever) I am going to be so bummed if its a BFN. Its funny as in our last TWW we went away in the middle weekend and we will be again. October long weekend. We are going away with 2 other couples who wont know we are mid cycle so will have to find an excuse why I am not drinking. Although I am not a big drinker anyway, so shouldn't be too hard. May say I am detoxing for the next round.
Hi Ladies.....sorry but i am posting a me post for now....
Went and saw FS today, and he has decided to change my protocol by adding DHEA and HGH (human growth hormone)...anyone used these and had better success?

Emerald star hi im using gonalf injections atm im not sure if thats whats in them but its my first round of injections as i was on clomid for 3 months before this i will let u know how i go! Best of luck to u
Nothing2lose - thanks hon!....I think its saizen..they haven't confirmed anything yet...but i think thats the most commonly used.
Do you know anyone who has used this and seen a difference? and have you seen the difference with taking DHEA? Is yours from a compounding chemist??
I have only been on DHEA for a couple of months (along with melatonin). I haven't done a stim on it yet. You have to take it for four months. I get it from a compounding chemist. It's about $75 for a month's worth.
Eta - no sorry, I don't know about the saizen

Em Star, the only thing I know about DHEA is that you should have your testosterone levels checked before you start taking it because it can actually do more harm than good if your levels are already high. GL with it. I do see lots of stories on the other forum about success with it.
Thanks Juniper and nothing2lose.....I too got the DHEA from the compounding chemist. Apparently the DHEA combined with Luveris or Saizen (HGH) improves egg quality. If so why do they not give us this option before we spend $$$$$$$$???? I started the DHEA this morning and still want to find out whether there is a good difference in taking the Luveris/Saizen, before we commit to spending more $$. I guess being our very last cycle we should try everything..right?
This is all the additions to my normal protocol that we will be undertaking:
Normal Protocol: Lucrin 5iu - Gonal F 300iu - Ovidrel Trigger - crinone pessaries
WE ARE ADDING THESE; (hopefully these combined will be the magical elixir!!)
DHEA - check
Acupuncture - check
More Walking - check
Luveris / HGH - ??
and Day of Transfer do nothing but lie on the couch and watch telly...DD will stay at grandma's for the nite....
