Short protocol IVF help please ladies :)

Canadawaterchick profile image

Hey lovely ladies

I’m due to be starting my short cycle IVF very soon as soon as my AF starts and I’ve been told to go on the pill for some days before a scan and check lining then start stimms etc etc... Is this right? Anyone else done this too? I’m also currently on NAC, ubiqionol, omega 3, folic acid and a few more things! Any other tips, hint some most appreciated. Thanks as always xx

I did short protocol and that’s how mine went. Expect everything to move quickly once you start stimming, I only needed 8/9 days of it.

Wishing you lots of luck xx

Sorry me again, I’ve been told to stay on pills for 2 weeks then bleed then stimms, is that normal? Xx
