Tell me about your experience with injectibles...
It seems I didn't respond to the Clomid this time around so it looks like its time to move on... I have a feeling injectibles are it. If you have done injectibles before....
How many follicles did you produce?
When do you start and finish the injectibles?
What's your dx?
TIA

I tried 2 rounds of Follistim with IUI before moving to IVF. I produced about 9 eggs on Follistim but did not get PG. We had unexplained IF.

I am doing letrozole and follistim this cycle, I go back in two days for a follie check so I can't answer that yet, I can tell you that I started on CD3 and my last shot will be tomorrow on CD7. I was not ovulating on my own

Re: Tell me about your experience with injectibles...
Sorry about Clomid, it didn't work for me either  .
My first injectible cycle I produced 9 follies and was cancelled due to multiples risk. The cycles after that I produced anywhere from 3 to 5 follies each time.
I have PCOS. I started stimming on Day 3 and stimmed for anywhere from *I think* 10 to 15 days. I was a good responder so they started me low and slow after the first busted cycle.
Good luck

Re: Tell me about your experience with injectibles...
I have egg quality issues. I was on Gonal -F for the first cycle and produced 4 or 5 follicles. I got pregnant on that cycle but my estrogen was low and it didn't stick. I then did an unmedicated cycle and my third IUI was on Bravelle. I think I only produced 2 or 3 follicles on Bravelle and that cycle was a BFN.
I had no side-effects from either medication. The only med that bothered me was the progesterone which I used 2xs a day in suppository form.
I started meds on CD3 and stimmed for 7 days, taking the trigger on day 10. IUIs were on day 11 and 12 on both medicated cycles.

For IUIs they usually had me producing about 3 or so on Gonal F.

Does anyone know if LIIVF will convert to an IVF cycle?
