First menopur argh!!!

7 Replies

Well first menopur tonight and I have to say I found mixing the vials traumatic I'm supposed to have 1ml of fluid left to inject but I ended up with loads of bubbles and only about 0.7ml of fluid I'd missed a bit in the cap which I sucked up but couldn't get any more out of the vials. Has anyone any tips? Xx

Try not to worry. I am sure there is a little leeway. Did you tap the syringe to get the bubbles out? Xx

Have a look on YouTube for videos that's what our clinic advised. Calmed us down a bit when starting it xx

We had a similar problem where OH ended up shooting the Menopur all over the bed because of the vacuum. I found turning the powders upside down was easier as nothing could squirt out. It does get quicker but takes a couple of awkward, fiddly practice days x
