Hi! I’m about to enter my second cycle of IVF, a frozen transfer this time. I’ve been subscribed Nafarelin nasal spray. I didn’t know a nasal spray was on the agenda (not that I’m phased!). Has anyone else had this? I googled and it’s instead of buserelin injections. Does this mean I might not have to do any injections this time? I’m okay about needles but a nasal spray does appeal more 😀

I used it for my first round. It was fine to use, but in hindsight I’d rather stick with one buserelin injection a day rather than nasal spray 5x a day! I used to set multiple alarms to remind me!

Once you get in the swing of it it gets easier, but I’d have forgotten countless times without my phone alarms and found I had to take it everywhere with me just to be sure. It was mildly irritating, but not hard work 😊

Hi. Your nose is lined with a mucus membrane which makes it ideal for absorbing the sniffer. Blow your nose before using. It’s nicer than injecting !! Good luck. Diane
