Hi
We are about to embark on our 3rd embryo cycle and have a decision to make regarding using the growth hormone Zomacton. I turn 42 this week and have a low reserve.
I was recommended using 3 does of it in our last (second) cycle but we saw no real addition benefit. 4 eggs collected each cycle resulting in only 1 x 3 day embryo from each cycle.
Our consultant has advised we use it again during the stimulation phase but we have read research which suggested the affect of the hormone is best when taken in the prep month. We asked our consultant about this who said they are aware of the research but it is not the approach our client take.
Does anyone have any experience of using the hormone either before or during the stimulation phase?
We have been told it’s our decision whether to use it again or not so would welcome any thoughts.
Thank you!
