Day 13 stimming - feeling awful and discouraged
Day 13 on
Gonal

(dose 300). Yesterday’s scan showed follicles are developing really slowly and doc said EC prob won’t be until next week at this rate. Feeling so nauseous and tired and headachey and really low. Can

make you feel depressed (or is it just that this process sucks)?

First scan after starting stims
This is our first ivf cycle and after starting
Gonal
f
last Thursday I had my first scan today, she said there were 10-12 follicles over 10mm on each side and lots of smaller ones, so I’m off for second scan on Monday and all being well could be egg collection on Wednesday!

Only 3 follicles baseline scan
Start
gonal
f
300 today and still taking the buserelin which I can’t understand as it’s definitely shut my system down! I have felt so so tearful and emotional especially this last week and already finished my period.

Spotting/red bleeding....please advice
Hi all I am on my 4th fresh cycle. Had a miscarriage back in March. Started on pill and have been on gonal for 2 weeks and will start the second injection from tomorrow. I started brown spotting on Sunday, but only when I wiped. Then it stopped, it has started again today and it’s red. I don’t remember

Any experiences on cetrotide?
Was wondering if that was normal, or if from where I'm already doing

that the area is a bit over-stabbed and just a bit sensitive and is to be expected? Anyone's previous experiences helpful!

Gonal F side effects
Hi ladies! So I’ve done two days of stims so far and wow the headache. It started as more of dull hangover type head and it’s just getting worse. Please tell me it goes away? Do I have any other lovely side effects to look forward to?

First Cycle Abandoned
Hi all, My DH and I started our first ICSI cycle last week. I went for scan again today (day 7) only to be told I have responded too well to the meds too quickly (I have PCOS) and that the cycle has to be abandoned😓 They said I can start next cycle following my next period and they will start with

IUI, Gonal F questions!
So I started taking
Gonal
f
doing 75 - 3 days ago now. I was just wondering what others have experienced. I don't know if I'm looking for things or it's in my head but I've had an aching side all day, kinda like light period type ache.

Embarking on the IVF road.
So after 4 years and multiple attempts with
gonal
f
, an operation and a misscarraige we had a consultation today with the Dr after I over responded (again) this round.

Cycle cancelled - poor responder -_-
I'm starting to think that
Gonal
F
is not really for me (Last year I had another cancelled cycle in London but then I grew 2 folls on only Menopur 150 after quitting
Gonal
F
). On the other side I'm tempted to think the follicles are just growing on their (even if slowly) own ignoring the meds.

Serious Pain on Menopur
On day 4 of 225
gonal

f
and 150 menopur and second day of what feels like really bad period pains and cramping but non stop. I've emailed the nurse (they don't pick up the phone). Anyone else had this? Is there anything I can take or do to help ease the pain?! 😩

Anyone have success going from long to short cycle? Am panicking about the small amount of follicles growing!
The clinic have now upped my dosage of Menopur and told me to take it in the evening with the
Gonal
F
. They hadn't previously told me a specific time to take it so I'd been doing it in the morning alongside the Burserilin like an idiot as I'd just been told it was to help egg quality!!

Tired of waiting for funding... starting my private cycle next week
I have been prescribed 175units of
Gonal
F
and nothing else... I see you ladies in so many different meds, I was surprised when I was prescribed only one... hope they know what they are doing.

Injections- rest or gentle exercise afterwards?
I’ve started injections (burselin, menopur,
gonal
f
) on a short protocol. I am just finishing my period and am wanting to get back to my usual running routine. Did you Do exercise during this phase of IVF orvdid you take it easy? Wondering what the best thing to do is.
