Menopur/meriofert

For my first cycle I was on merifert 300iu and got 7 eggs collected, 5 made it to day 5. I'm about to start my second cycle (2 years after first EC) and have been prescribed menopur 375iu. Is there any difference between meriofert and menopur? I was told I'd have a higher dose as we're 2 years on. I've also been told Menopur needs putting in the fridge. Do I just inject it straight from the freezer?

Sorry for the questions. I'm due to start medication over the weekend but have only received my prescription today and the clinic will be closer by the time the medication arrives.

Hi lovely, not sure about weather they are the same or not but in terms of storage it does have to be stored in the fridge when you get it. Once the powder is dissolved it doesn’t have to be in the fridge but has to be under 25 degrees so I used to put mine under the stairs on the shelf.

If you haven’t mixed before there are loads of vids on YouTube which I found really handy when I used it. Good luck xxx
