Down regulation

[SLord992]

What cycle day did you all start down regulation? I’m wondering if it’ll still be possible to start it this cycle, I’m on day 10 now, and have personal planning appointment on Thursday. Will they give me my meds then?

Thanks 😊

For my long protocol they weren’t bothered what day, they chose the start date to suit them. Hope you can get started soon x

Hiya, I had the same worries when I was on day 1 of THE cycle, but don’t panic down reg doesn’t stay until day 21 of your cycle. I’m just about to start down reg on Wednesday and have been sent my drugs last Wednesday. I still haven’t had a consuktantiin with the nurses to go through how I use the drugs. I’m hoping that will happen before the injections start in November.

I was wondering the same thing. Is day 21 a standard for everyone regardless of how long your natural cycle is? This would mean that for most people natural ovulation would have occurred before starting the down regulatting drugs. I have a 37 day cycle and dont ovulate until around day 25 - would this make a difference? Should I be ovulating before I start?
