We are on ICSI short protocol and started Menopur injections on Saturday. Tonight is night 4.

I have my first scan tomorrow

I found the first injection to be the best, getting worse as it goes on, so not looking forward to tonight’s.

Think side effects have started to kick in as of today too. I have felt really rough all day, with stomach ache and feeling sick.

Looking forward to the scan tomorrow and finding out what happens next.

Good luck to you x

Best of luck for Thursday. I didn’t have any major side effects with Menopur. One thing I found different to Gonal F was the Menopur injection can sting a bit for a while afterwards. It’s totally manageable though xx

I wasn’t on menupor so can’t offer advice, but just wanted to wish you the best of luck for your cycle xxxx

The only symptom I ever got was headaches but they weren't unmangable in the slightest. Good luck with your cycle xx

Thankyou all xxx
