Gonal F

[Rach_87]

Hi, I am new to this site, i am on day 14 of Gonal f and was at the clinic this morning for a scan. The lady I seen didn't seem to have much time for my questions so I was wondering could anyone help I am feeling so tired and anxious, I have been told to continue treatment and to go back for a scan on Monday. I am worried my time may be running out for my first cycle and if anyone could share experiences from being on this treatment. Many thanks x

Hi please don't worry - what you are feeling is normal. The further you get in the cycle the more tired you feel as you are asking your body to work extra hard. Many of us feel anxiety because we want it to work so badly and it is both a physical and emotional journey. Try and relax and rest. Good luck!

Hi, thank you for replying. At the start I was feeling relaxed and resting but now I am becoming so

Impatient. Looking forward to my scan on Monday to see how things are progressing x

Good luck! I just started my cycle this morning with 450 Gonal F and I'll be taking merional in the evening. I know what you mean about being impatient

Thank you good luck to you also I am on 50 Gonal f and Buserelin twice a day. If you don't mind me asking what is merional? It's so exciting but at the same time you constantly feel all these other emotions, it's crazy. So glad I found this site for advice etc x

It's fsh & lh together. I had to cancel my last cycle so consultant got me on maximum doses right now. I have trouble sleeping so that makes me even more tired! But I'm trying to relax as much as possible.

I am on short protocol on day 8 and I am shattered. Just making sure I drink plenty of water and get early nights. Try listening to a meditation track, I downloaded the zita west one and I love it so calming and relaxing x

Hi, I will have to give that a try, I have been getting early nights also so maybe this could be an excuse to go extra early I can't get enough of water, my lips constantly feel so dry. Hope everything goes well for you x
