Hi Kristy,

Ive done 2 down reg stim cycles which involves taking the pill for approx 26 days, while taking the nasal spray syranel during this time. Once I got my period, I then went for a scan to make sure my lining was thin and all was ready to go to start the stimulation injections (gonal F). My imaging place schedules these scans early in the morning so it didnt interrupt my work. I then had to go to see the nurse with my results and from there they gave me a schedule of my injections. After approx 6/7 days of injections, another scan, again early in the morning. See the nurse again to discuss result and then they gave me trigger time and EPU day. The only days off I had was for EPU and I also took off the day of ET as since it was a special day, wanted to spend it with my partner. There is no need to not go to work, its a personal choice as its a simple procedure.

Im now embarking on a flare cycle which cuts out the pill. Syranel starts on Day 2 and injections on day 3. Follicle scan on day 6 with trigger and EPU thereafter.

So all in all, didnt interrupt work. However, I found with my personal life, I wasnt up for much socialising because of my moods and such stringent times for taking medication.

Hope this helps. If you need anymore info, just yell out!

Cheers,

Tania
