First Injection - Menopur Help !!

[Priz]

We did our first menopur injection last night, however while we mixed the saline solution with the powders it looked very little about 0.2ml after drawing all up....any tips or hints to help with technique and to get it right tonight ? Also will this affect stimming ?

Hi Priz. Was just looking to see if you were OK to start injections. Here's a You Tube video to watch. youtube.com/watch?v=o7Qo-2B...(Not working as expected?) Good luckwith it all. Thinking of you. Diane

Thanks Diane for the very useful video. Visited the hospital to go through technique this morning so hopefully tonight it will all go to plan.

Hi BabyD...Priz is my wife, I've often shared info on here as I too have a profile lol. Basically she is on 375IU ( meaning 1ml) this consists if 1 solution and 5 powders. As stated earlier we have been to our clinic and we wer showed again how to do the Injection, so all should go well tonight

Thanks Diane. Me (sanj76) and the wife (Priz), had gone over to the clinic again this morning as we felt we hardly used the injection solution as we should have done. We should be objecting atkeast 1ml. So hopefully we'll get it right today, the technique was abit tricky but all should be fine tonight. Thank you so much for the support and video.

Hi Priz and sanj76. Well done both of you! Once you get the hang of it all will be well. If you get sore, try melting an ice cube on the spot before injecting, tends to numb the area fr you. Good luck and thinking of you both. Diane
