How do you feel when your on these meds. I feel

So tired and crabby. One minute I'm ok, one minute I wanna punch someone really hard and another minute I'm crying. And I'm always tired.

I'm on follistim and menopur- higher dosage this time so maybe that's why it's worse then last time.

Also nervous- I don't produce many eggs- my age and the fact I only have one ovary left. First retrieval they only got one, second they got 4. All were frozen bc I was having surgery.

I'm doing a fresh cycle now- a full year later and I'm nervous that I won't produce enough to get quality embryos. So many on here are producing a lot more. I know its quality over quantity but it just is frustrating.

Vent over.

I know- that is the worst- the wait. You're doing IVF correct? Do you know how many embryos you plan to put back in?? Im so undecided right now.

Yep, RE guestimated Aug 5 for ER and Aug 10 for ET.

Definitely 2. Depends on quality too I think. I'm trying to convince DH for 3 if they aren't perfect little embies, but he says no way. Not even sure my RE would do 3. RE just wanted to transfer 1 bc I'm not 36 yet, but i told him definitely 2.

I was slightly moody, but nothing too bad. I was not on that high of a dosage. I just remember being very tired once I started the progesterone.

I'm hitting 40 in two months so I'm def thinking 2- im scared of 3 but I'm going to talk to dr before the ER and transfer. I'm probably a bit before you as far as ER and ET - I'm on day 4 of meds. Gotta see quality of the embes but I head that doesn't even matter sometimes. What decisions!!

Good luck! Sorry you are tired and crabby retrieval will be here before you know it. Hopefully you get a good amount of quality embryos! Do you still have the 5 frozen?

Yes I have the 5 frozen and will keep them frozen for time being. I had surgery on my left and only ovary and froze in case something happened to it. As of now its still functioning but in case something happens, at least I know I have some backup.

As someone who has done 2 cycles - first cycle 24 eggs were retrieved. I hyperstimulated so had to do fets instead of a fresh transfer. I had a 2 chemicals. Next cycle i had 12 eggs retrieved and conceived my DD. So, as someone just starting the journey again I have to constantly remind myself Quality over Quantity is best! Good Luck!!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
