Diphereline Injection- Where Can I Buy it?

[Katiluna]

Hello everyone,

I hope you are all doing OK.

After a third miscarriage last month, my husband and I have now decided to move to donor eggs. My clinic is based abroad. They have prescribed some medication that I need to take before the embryo transfer. The name of the injection is Diphereline depot (or Decapeptyl depot , Lupron depot , Enanton depot, Zoladex depot, Prostap).

I was wondering if anyone can tell me where (in the UK) I can buy any of these injections (maybe online?). If anyone could direct me to some website where I can purchse it, that would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

hello, I struggled to get it when I needed it I’m in Scotland though. You also need to get a clinic to inject it coz it’s intra muscular. So once I got it I made an app at a local private clinic and paid for it to be injected. (I took it home from a holiday in Spain) xxx

Thanks very much for your response. I see. Yes, it seems like a struggle to get it here in the UK. I'll do a bit more research and see what I can find xx

Might be worth trying The Fertility Medication Centre (online) or give your local Asda pharmacy a call and see if it’s something they can order for you?

I’ve used both of these for meds and they’ve been great but it sounds as though the medication you’re after may a bit more tricky to get hold of - hopefully not 🤞🏼

Best of luck with everything and I’m so sorry to read about your recent miscarriage.

Hi, just wondering did you need a prescription? Thanks

[Katiluna in reply to MyLittlePinkness]

I have a prescription from my clinic, so you would probably need a prescription to get it

[MyLittlePinkness in reply to Katiluna]

Thanks.

[Katiluna in reply to Mercury363]

Thanks very much for the information x. I will contact them and see what they say xx

I’ve used fertility2u.com. I’ve just had a quick look and I can see they have Prostrap.

[Katiluna in reply to K_LNB]

Many thanks for your response x. I contacted fertility2u yesterday through their website as I was unable to chat to a human being lol, so hopefully they will get back to me next week xx

I had no problem getting it in the UK, I just got my local pharmacy to order it.

It does say as it’s intramuscular that a trained nurse needs to do it. The needle (sorry) is pretty big, though it doesn’t really hurt. However I just had my friend do it.

[Katiluna in reply to Doodlebug23]

Thank you very much for sharing that information xx. I'm going to ask my local pharmacy and see if they could help me with that x

Hi

I ordered mine through Asda pharmacy - just need to take your prescription

I have a dr here in London that I see for my scans and he done my injection for me (you will probably need scans prior to going to Spain for transfer unless you are going for the whole duration). Are you based near London at all?

[Katiluna in reply to Oti1]

Thank you so much for the information x. Yes I'm based in London. I will give Asda pharmacy a call on Moday and see if they can help xx. If my clinic request a scan before departure, I would have to get that done as well. Do you mind me asking if you are seeing your doctor on the NHS or privately?

[Oti1 in reply to Katiluna]

Apologies for delay!

I am seeing my dr privately. He is great and provides the pictures and full report to send to your clinic. If you want details he is based in king cross and I can D’M you - good luck!

[Katiluna in reply to Oti1]

So sorry for the late reply. I was offline for quite a while! Thanks very much for your response. If you could DM me regarding details of your doctor, that would be much appreciated xx
