Timing of buserelin with clock changes

Hi All

I completely forgot the clocks change this weekend and I'm not 100% what to do about my buserelin injection for DR.

I usually inject at 7.45pm. Should I now be giving this at 8.45pm with the clock change and then move the timing by 15 mins each day to bring it back to 7.45? I'm also due my first scan on Monday and not sure if this will make a difference. The clinic told me ideally my meds should be given at same time each day.

Has anyone been advised by their clinic what to do with the clock changes?

Thanks so much in advance!

Are you going to make any changes when the clocks change on Sunday? x

Just going to stick the same time x I think it's just the trigger shot before EC that has to be spot on with times x

My clinic said give or take an hour shouldn't matter so it's up to you really! It won't affect your scan. The trigger shot is the one that has to be done spot on!! Good luck.xx

Hi poppy

If you take it at 8.45 then stick to that it will not affect you. if you change the time then it will not balance its self back out. I had to stick to uk times when i was in Greece so that it would stay the same. Best of luck xx

Hi Amanda thanks for your advice. Good to know you've experienced time changes and administration of meds and how you managed it. I think doing 8.45 and sticking to that is the best thing to do. Thank you so much x
