Important: bad experience/possible problem with Ovidrel: My wife and I were going to a fertility doctor. Did 3 rounds with ovidrel(the ovulation forcing shot). We had no luck all 3 times. We decided that the doctor had too many patients and was not giving us personal care. We went to another doctor, did a round of a natural hormone, Follistim AQ cartridges with the Follistim Pen, and Ovidrel for the ovulation. This time, like the other times with the other doctor, she had her period 2-3 days early, and of course we were really disappointed. Well, this doctor checked her blood and levels and noticed they got too high too quickly. We did another round with the same natural hormone, but with a different ovulation drug, Pregnyl I believe, and we're now 6.5 weeks pregnant. We think that Ovidrel was the problem. It's like it made her cycle speed-up, and eggs drop too quickly and too soon, so there was no time for "it" to happen. Not that Ovidrel is bad, but it didn't work for us.
I hope this helps some of you having trouble, because it really hurt us for some time. Good luck to you all.
