That’s me, as I start TTC cycle #36, I think. I am doing injectables and timed intercourse. My bulk pack of OPK’s and HPT’s are winging their way to me as I type and I start Estrogen and Gonal-F tomorrow.
I don’t feel excited though. It’s more a question of ‘I hope I [...]

Decidedly lacklustre…

Is there light?
Estrogen today is 6000 (US 1621). It’s stim day 8.
Tomorrow I am to drop the Gonal-F to 300iu.
Orgalutran again today.

Count down
I’m counting down the days until my last try at IVF. Hopefully I will start next cycle. My FS friend didn’t follow through due to personal issues so I have taken on a FS who is known to be good with ‘over 40’s’. I really liked Dr M but he just seemed too conservative for [...]

Go figure – I hereby declare I no longer know my body at all.
I’ve been quietly drifting along this cycle. My FS didn’t want me to trigger and I didn’t manage to schedule a scan so I don’t know :
How many follicles I grew on 225iu Gonal-F
How many follicles I ovulated
Exactly when I ovulated because things didn’t add up as accurately as normal
I’m still charting and my temp [...]

Today is cd2 of cycle 27. This month I’m taking 225iu of Gonal-F for 7 – 10 days and [...]

Ho Hum
This month I’ve decided to try Femara and Estrogen Heaven forbid I do nothing after all. I started Femara a day later than usual which seems to suit me better because it hasn’t brought my ovulation date forward at all. I must say though I am ready for a wee break. I get [...]

Scan tomorrow
I’ve had a few niggles in my left ovary today so things are progressing. I was pondering the lack of monitoring – I haven’t even had a supression check but I know that my Dr is notorious for doing fewer blood tests than everyone else. I said to my friend, who is a Bio-chemist in [...]

Is anything happening?
Well I’ve done 5 days of stims and for a while there I was worried nothing was happening. Fortunately I blew my nose tonight and felt a twinge on both sides. I don’t know when you would expect to feel something but I was worried that with the possibility of only three days left I [...]

Out of the starting gate
I started to down reg on 8th September – cd21. I have now started stimming. Yesterday was my first injection of 225ug Gonal-f sc.
This is a ‘middle of the road’ level as I understand it as we have no real way of knowing how the ‘old’ ovaries will respond. My first scan is booked for [...]
