IVF - Lupron/Gonal-F/Menopur

Has anyone had this protocol for their IVF and if so could you tell me a little about it, how well it worked for you, side effects, etc.

I found out yesterday that I will begin lupron injections day 21 of my next cycle which should begin the 1st week in May....

I have one shot with my insurance...


Any info would be helpful! Thanks!

I'm a patient of NSUH and I'm on Lurpon now. Unfortunately I have cysts so it nmight be postponed

In my refrigerator I have follistim which I'll take with repronex to stiumulate the eggies. Then progesteron after the transfer - I also have Doxacyclene (sp) for both DH & myself

thanks for sharing....and sorry to hear about the cysts, I hope you don't have to postpone your cycle

hi, i was on lupron folistim (sp?) and Repronex, but i switched to menopur because the repronex gave me rashes at the injection site. The menopur was better for me. Lupron made me a little moody. Unfortunatley, my ivf's were not successful. i'm taking a break now.
Best of luck to you, it will go fast and before you know it you will be going for your retrieval and transfer.

I had Bravalle and Repronex but no Lupron with my protocol..

Best of luck to you and much baby dust!!

i did lupron with folistim and menopur. I am one of the lucky few who get oversuppressed by lupron so my 2nd cycle was better without lupron. Of course both succked since I got BFN's but I am "not a great repsonder".

The meds really werent that bad and it does go by FAST!!!

Good luck!
