A few changes?

So we finally had our follow up after our second failed ICSI cycle and although there still weren’t any answers (I know this is normal as there just aren’t really any answers) the clinic have suggested tweaking a few things so just wanted to ask opinions....

We’re swapping from Menopur to Gonal F for this cycle and wondered if anyone has experience of both and if you felt any different? I luckily have felt fine on Menopur the last two times so am hoping the Gonal F is ok too!

We’re giving Clexane a try this cycle too so wondered how you’ve felt on this and if there are any side effects?

Also has having an endometrial scratch worked for any of you lovely ladies? We’re probably going to go for that too but just wanted some opinions on if it is worth a try?!

Thanks for reading and I hope you’re all doing ok. Love and strength to you all xx

I had better results on gonal-f. My clinic add in a little menopur too as they say you need the lutenizing hormone thar menopur provides.

Ah thanks for that, it’s good to be prepared and if it means a better result then the headaches would be worth it!

Ah thank you so much. Where are you in your journey? Sending hope for a miracle for you too x

Thank you , I wish us all to get our miracle babies 💗💗💗

I had my second laparoscopy to treat endometriosis on Friday - unfortunately it returned after my early miscarriage last year ( conceived after my first laparoscopy.) As some was on my bowel and couldn’t be removed I need to see a colorectal specialist .We seeing our fertility doctor this Thursday, and I’m seeing the gynaecologist in 6/8 weeks. Lots going on! 😂 Definitely worth fighting for 🌈 xoxo
