Another visit to the RE! updated...
So I went in this morning and no follicles developing as of CD10...so they told me I have to start giving myself shots of Bravelle for the next 3 days and take more Estrogen and come back on Saturday to see what is developing. I am glad and nervous at the same time. Glad, cuz they are so aggressive...but nervous cuz now I have to give myself shots!!
Hopefully, this round works....

Re: Another visit to the RE!
Aw I'm sorry you have to give yourself shots!! 
But yes, it's great that they are so aggressive and have you moving on your way! I hope you grow a few nice follies

Re: Another visit to the RE!
I was just there with my first shots.
It'snerve wracking but please know you CAN do it! In all honesty, the anticipation was ten times worse than the actual needle.
Is Bravelle taking subcutainiously or Intramuscular?
If its sub-q shot that you can take in your belly, just squeeze the belly really hard...you will then find that the pinching of the skin hurts more than the needle itself.
You CAN do this.

Re: Another visit to the RE!
Im taking Bravelle. How much are you taking,.
It is NOT bad at all.
Deb...it can be taken sub-q. Depends on th eneedles they give you. If you need some help with the injections feel free to FM me. They should give you a class or a video to watch.
Lots of luck

Re: Another visit to the RE!
nothing to add really .. only wanted to wish you lots of good luck and give you lots of ... I know that the prospect of giving yourself injections is scary BUT as Deb and Diane said .. YOU CAN DO IT  And if those injections means you will grow lots of nice follies, then you can definitely DO IT
Good Luck and I am hoping this time the IUI works for you!!

Re: Another visit to the RE!
WooHoo!!!!! I just did it!!!! And you guys are right, the anticipation was the worst part. It really didn't hurt at all, especially after experiencing the blood letting every other day!
Anyway, I am doing 2 vials of Bravelle every day for the next three days and 2 mg. of Estrodial and on Saturday I go to see what has "developed"....
Anyone know exactly what the Bravelle does?
Wish me luck....Hopefully this is the cycle!!!

If its anything like bravelle (and I believe it is minus the LH) its a FSH medicine that is stimulating your ovaries to produce more follies
