Double trigger?

Hi ladies

I'm triggering at 12.30am but was curious to see that I have to use 2 x 250 pens.

I've looked around and pretty much everyone else seems to just use the one.

Have any of you used 2?

I've done a little bit of research and it seems it is something that is being researched at the moment to investigate whether it benefits immature oocytes. Last cycle I did get 8 mature of 10 eggs so don't think it's a huge problem for me.

I trust my clinic in Greece completely so am not worried - just curious.

Thanks so much

Alison

Hello sparkle

I had 2 injections aswell. I asked my clinic why 2 injections. I was told it was to do with the dosage as i needed 10000 units and each trigger has 5000.. So i think it's the dosage in each injection.

Wishing you well

I had 5 eggs collected 3 fertilised had day 5 blastocysts

Today they transferred all 3 as I'm 45 years old. Really scared but followed the advice of the embryologist.

Amazing!!! I'm in Greece and they will do four if I manage to make that many. Seems very rare to have multiples past 40 so think we're good. I'm 43. To have 3 Day 5 blastocysts is phenomenal! You must be overjoyed. How many cycles have you had? This is my second. First was a complete disaster with a really nasty, corrupt clinic in Bangkok, cost a small fortune and ripped me off. Love my new place in Greece xx

Hello Sparkle,

2nd icsi cycle, im 45 years old.. I had 5 eggs collected. 3 fertilised out of the 5. And they all made it to day 5 blastocysts . They decided to put all 3 back just to give me maximum chance. Im really scared of multiple pregnancy.

Just hoping for the best.

I hope all goes well for you

Kind regards

Oh wonderful! Thanks so much for sharing that news. Super fruitful! xoxo

Mine was two shots but only one syringe so had to suck up two ampoules into one syringe rather than doing two separate x

Thanks Forbes letting me know Daisy. So sorry to hear about your last cycle. I hope you can find ways to heal and are supported by good people. I’ll be on the Donor Egg trail if this doesn’t work so sending lots and lots of love xox

I had 2 injections, just to make up the full dose I needed. I had a positive pregnancy test 11 days ago, so still very early days....
