Menopur & fostimon

[Rol81]

Hello ☺️

I’m on day 13 of Buserelin injections and have my baseline scan tomorrow. Hopefully it’s ok and I can start stimming.

I will discuss again tomorrow with the clinic but initially they were saying I need to inject fostimon and menopur separately . I used to mix…which I’d prefer do as it’s less injection sites as I’ll be still using Buserelin . I’ve not used menopur before….fostimon & meriofert only in the past.

I’m bruising lots so I’d welcome 2 rather 3 injections.

Has anyone got experience of duo stimming and if they mixed rather than separate injections?

Thanks

Hi Rol. I wouldn’t recommend mixing drugs. Try melting an ice cube on the spot before injecting. Inject slowly to lessen bruising. Good luck. Diane

Hi Diane, thanks for tips. I’ve always mixed my stims meds in the past but I did it separately last night. The menopur needle was tricky to get in, but I got there!! Thanks
