Starting IVf

Hi everyone,

Hope you are all doing well.

For my upcoming cycle I will be on Menopur 375, Fyremadel 250, Gonasi and then cyclogest after transfer. I have a low amh hence the higher doses.

Anyone got any advice going onto these medications? Or any positive stories 😉

Thank you in advance xx

Hey! Is this your first cycle? If so I'd say give yourself plenty of time when you do the injection the first few times. My husband and I watched all the tutorials and read the instructions. In the end it's not that bad. I wrote out a schedule for myself so I could tick things off and note down where I injected.

Go easy on yourself as it's a lot of hormones going in, your body will be working hard!

I have low AMH too so was on the maximum dose of medication.

Wishing you lots of luck 😊 x

Oh then you'll have no trouble with the injections! Yeah I've seen people mention ice cubes and things, I didn't do any of that though (mainly because I only just read about that today 🤦🏽‍♀️) x

Hi kelsbels. In view of the fact that you have injected before, you should be fine, as long as you follow instructions. Good luck and I hope all ends well for you. Diane
