Feel like it’s over before it’s begun - non responsive to STIMS!

Have been on Bemfola 450 for the past 4 nights. Had nightmare with the needles not attaching properly and discovered only yesterday you need to twist them on a bit and not just click, clearly instructions/advice was wrong. So I feel like I only really got one proper dose which was last nights dose. As the the 3 prior doses were leaking out the syringe needle join. Went for my progress appointment today and I’ve not responded to the meds, not surprising as majority probably leaked out other than yday! They have told me all is not lost and it’s not a big deal with the stims, but I’m really worrying and over analysing that I’ve messed up my whole stimulation now. Will that have affected the follicles and egg quality? Im now on from tonight meriofert 450 and got another progress scan Friday. Worried I’ve sabotaged this all and now I’ll get a different end result at EC stage?

Hi PrincessGurn. Some ladies can take a week to ten days to get going on these meds, so I wouldn't stress just yet. Fingers crossed all will kick off soon. Good luck! Diane

Thanks I just feel like if the past 4 days hasn’t ‘registered’ and nothing happened yet then is it too late to essentially start STIMing now?
