Aleenta - I used Orgalutran for my last IVF cycle but still ended up with OHSS so its not a guaranteed solution but apparently it is meant to help. We chose this option as it is a much shorter cycle= fit more cycles into a year and less impact on my work.
As BW said, the needles are quite blunt and I had a reaction to one of them where the injection site blew up a fair bit and turned a nasty colour. It only happened the once, but I made sure I chose a different area to inject the next time.
what dose did you have? They are going to start me on 75iu gonal f this time so I am hoping no OHSS, but you are right - who knows there is certainly no guarantees. Good luck with your frosties and your transfer this month.
I understimulated in my first IVF, then did two rounds with 150iu (But that was IVM, so slightly different), and then was bumped up to 225iu gonal-f but hyper stimulated from that. It's so hard to predict what your body is going to do on the drugs!
