We are on our way...here's our protocol.

I went to the RE this morning to get BW done to start BCP, and BW for the genetic screening. I also got my IVF calendar.

Today I start BCP and take them for 11 days, brining me to the 28th of November.

**In the meantime, DH and I have our orientation tonight, DH's SA on Sunday (the day we both have to take antibiotics) and my water sono on Monday.**

After the 11 days of BCP I go 2 days doing nothing.

December 1st I go in for BW and Sono, and if everything looks good, I start stimming on that day.

My stim meds include menopur, dexamethasone pill and then ganerelix when told to start.

Projected trigger date: 12/10 with egg retrieval on 12/12, fertilization report 12/13, transfer on 12/15.

Start what they called vag caps and what i'm assuming is progesterone suppositories on 12/16, and estraderm patches on 12/19.

How does all of this sound to you? Anyone have any side effects with those meds? Any tips/advice?

Thanks girls!

I've taken menopur with follistim - it just stings a little bit. The ganirellex is a peice of cake.

I really didn't have many symptoms - just a little emotional, that's all Chat Icon

That's very similar to the protocol I'm on now. I was on BCP's longer though to fit me into the cycle. It's a piece of cake. Good luck!!!

This sounds like a pretty typical protocol. The only difference I can see is that you are on BCP for only 11 days rather than the usual 3 weeks. I had no side effects from the meds. Best of luck and Chat Icon
