Thanks girls for the info.
Loula - hmmm then it seems its not a 'clinic' thing. Yes must depend on FS.
Sammie - Yeh less meds the better, add on the build up of anticipation & stress of waiting for follicle numbers & quality and my impatience I just prefer shorter cycles..
Incomplete - long down reg for me involved being on the pill for 3 weeks..in all up it is 6 weeks till Embryo Transfer date THEN add on 2 weeks TWW = 8 weeks...I just won't do another long down protocols of 2months with BFN with my age. Compared to 'Flare' short protocols - 3 weeks ( approx 10 days of stimms & then TWW) - just better for my stress levels!!

Have a great xmas everyone - Fingers crossed for everyone cycling and hugs to everyone else with a fresh new start for 2010.
