I was supposed to start stimming today but AF was late so looks like it’ll be postponed by a couple of days, just waiting to hear back from the clinic.

Hope the menopur goes ok later and 🤞🤞 that it’s 4th time lucky for you. Xx

I thought I was going to be delayed too but AF arrived yesterday. Fingers crossed she arrives in the next few days for you. Frustrating isn’t it! Xx

She’s here! All booked in for baseline tomorrow so won’t be far behind you.

Hey I’m starting my Norethisterone (if that’s how you spell it) this Saturday coming. It’s our 4th go too. Very nervous as a different protocol to last time. I just want it to be over so I know if it’s worked or not. Constantly wishing my life away on this journey.

I know what you mean. It’s different drugs for me this time too, also tried a scratch and DHEA. So am hopeful different treatment might mean different result! What does your regime consist of this time? I had norethisterone this time too, along with a one off IM prostap injection x

Hello lovely! It’s my fourth fresh round but I started last Monday. How are you feeling? I’ve been very excited but also totally anxious!!! Xx

Feeling ok at the moment actually. Glad to be getting going! I know what you mean though... hard not to feel the added pressure each time xx

I'm also on my first cycle using menopur. (Australian based)

I've had a couple of scans and have found that my follicles are small so ec has been put off until Friday..

Hoping it gets easier as time goes on.

Good luck on your cycle.

Most people have a couple of scans so don’t worry. No down side to taking longer to atom that I’m aware of, just frustration from our part! Best of luck and keep me posted x
