Ganirelix question

I started Ganirelix on Monday to stop my body from ovulating until after the holiday. I'm doing at home ovulation kits and BBT. I haven't gotten a positive for ovulation, but my BBT has been rising. Is it normal for BBT to rise just because of the Ganirelix? I was at the RE on Monday (when we decided to start this) and my dominant follicle was a 14, so it's highly unlikely that I would have ovulated between then and now. BBT has been steadily rising over the past couple of days (perhaps in sync with the meds). Also, not to be gross, but I think I am getting that EW cervical mucus. (I've never been good at noticing or charting that, but something is there!) Are the BBT and CM just typical side effects from the med? I go back to the RE on Saturday. If I ovulate before then, we scrap this cycle :(

Thanks!!

Re: Ganirelix question

these arent side effects i experienced from ganirelix. your temp may be rising but that doesnt mean its the post-O rise. have you been temping for a long time? the meds can def screw it up, its almost better to not temp while on meds (this coming from someone who temp'd EVERY cycle up until IVF ). in the end your RE will monitor your ovulation, so you dont have to. ganirelix will in almost all cases stop ovulation from happening on its own, so you really dont have to worry about it.

i am sorry, i might be wrong, but this makes me They would give you drugs to prevent O just b/c of the holidays I know NYC office is closed on Friday, what about Weschester? I do not see why RE office should be closed on Friday. I am sorry you have to take it ( i know you want as natural as possible). I am pizzed for you.
