hiya, hope you’re all having nice weekend. I am 5 days into Synarel (2 sniffs morn and 2 sniffs eve)

I feel no symptoms at all, and don’t feel like it’s doing anything? Is this normal? I’m also only using it for 2 weeks…which doesn’t seem long?

anyone else experience similar? X

I didn't really have many symptoms on synarel if you're taking the dose I'm sure it's doing its job! Sometimes they only have you on it to down regulate, so about two weeks seems right!

in reply tominnesota_girl

thank you so much! Think I just got my first symptom - BV?! :’( maybe due to the hormones?

Hi Elsidee. Probably for down regulation, so two weeks is average. Good luck. Diane

hi DianeArnold - I have 7 more days of one sniff in morning and 1 in evening and it feels like the bottle is running out! I don’t know if there’s enough sprays in it to get my through til Tuesday when the clinic opens again. I’m slightly panicking! I’m also day 2 of stims. Is this going to mess my cycle up if it runs out? X

HOW DID YOU GET SYNAREL NASAL SPRAY??? My clinic told me there was none in the whole of th UK! I have told them I’m very nervous about alternatives and now I have o take daily injections!!

in reply toForABabyPanda

ooh that’s strange ! They didn’t mention any shortage ? Also when stork didn’t deliver it in time they said ‘just pop in we have some here’ ?? Sorry you couldn’t get any :(

I don’t think the private clinics here in Northern Ireland use it, and no one in our NHS clinic has been given it, apparently there’s been a shortage for 6 to 9 months?

I contacted them once I heard, because one of the tablets that people seem to be putting on. I have had before for something different and I didn’t agree with it. The other alternative is a 35 day long lasting injection which I am also nervous about as if I react badly to it it’s in my system and I can’t get it out. The alternative day then gave me was daily injections which are their own kind of not fun but as it turns out, they are the injectable version of the nasal spray, so on finding that out, I’m a little bit more relieved about the side-effects, but I am also not too happy at all about having to take daily injections for an FET.

Are my clinic lying to me? Is it just that they couldn’t be bothered to get in the end? Or maybe your clinic stockpiled somewhere before the storage sorry shortage? I also think my clinic is lying to me about them doing any FETs at the minute. I’m only hearing about fresh cycles and people who are getting FET after freeze alls. I have not heard of a single person getting an FET. That’s a follow up from a field fresh in the last few months.

I had no side effects on the synarel

in reply toForABabyPanda

I think I’ve just somehow got BV? I never get it so can only put it down to this drug messing with my hormones? 😢 not sure.

could be – the worst. I got was a slight feeling of dizziness as though I had just got off a lift very occasionally. I think I may have had low bread pressure which resolved after treatment and wasn’t serious.
