At our clinic i had a baseline scan and bloods on the Friday and started injections the next day, scan at day 8 of injecting and then every 1-3 days after this x

Hiya.

For my cycle I had a baseline scan the morning before starting my first injection which they counted as day 1.

I then had a blood test and scan on days 7, 9 and 11. Day 14 I had my egg collection, and day 19 I had transfer.

I was really lucky with work cos my hours are so flexible as I’m a carer, and my boss was very understanding.

I think every clinic is different in what they do with scans etc so they should go through it all at your induction session.

Hello, by the time I'm finished I would have had possibly 7 appointments, 1 nurse, 1 doctor, 3 check ups, 1 egg collection and 1 embryo transfer. Good luck

Oh... And baseline... 8! 😀

Can’t answets your question but can relate to juggling treatment with work. Wishing you the best

Hey, we had patient info meeting with nurse, blood test (early morning) after two weeks on buserilin, 2 scans (couple of days apart & one fell on a weekend) then egg collection. The number of scans will depend on how many follicles you have, if not many they can give you more medication to grow them but you’ll be scanned to check it’s going ok. It’s all a balance! Think you’ll need 2 days off work for egg collection. 🙏 Best of luck 🍀💕Xx

A few times a week,injection everyday to shut your system down,then change of injection everyday at Clinic twice a day once in morning, once at 10pm. Then a second drug infection at night, Then 1 half day for for egg collection. Wait 24 to 48hrs for fertilisation in Lab then 3hrs for implant back then a week to 10days of Hormone tablets or injections while egg hopefully fully implants. x
