Can I ask a dumb question .. sorry.


What are all these meds for? When will I (if I have to) be taking this stuff?

Lupron. I had to take it for 3 months for my endometriosis. The night sweats, mood swings and hot flashes every 5 minutes made me a maniac.

Runner up is the Crinone Gel. ITs like using a Yeast Infection cream EVERY DAY. It was gross. Sex was out of the question.

However, if it werent for these drugs, i would not be carrying my miracle twins....so looking back, I am very happy I endured them....

you take them in conjuction with IVF or IUI.

Most of the drugs listed are IVF drugs.

Each doctor chooses their own pdrug protocol to treat you. Like- I never had to take Lovenox or PIO for my IVF...but many others did.

It is all about your doctor's choice for you..

Re: What's your most hated drug you have taken in this process?

Any drug that we have to shoot into our bodies from a needle is the worst!!!! But, I've said it before I don't seem to have normal reaction to the meds. Prednisone cleared up my adult acne (that was a nice temp fix). PIO - I always had a nurse do, so it was never an issue (and I've never gotten past 2 wks anyway). Though this cycle I'm doing my own PIO. I"m sure I'll have an anxiety attack before I do it and lumps from doing something wrong. Luckily I don't seem to have a blood clotting issue so I've never used Lovenox, but that one sounds awful.

Though I did hate the estrogen patches because the adhesive would stick to everything. It took me about an hour to get it off my skin. At one point I was using Goo be Gone...it worked, but then I decided probably not so healthy and stopped.

Very interesting. Think I'm on estrogen shots going forward but that would have been worth a try. I'll keep that in mind, you never know.

A friend told me to get it off your clothe to use a piece of paper towel and iron over the area. I tried that but it didn't work for me. Unless i did it wrong.

PIO is the worst. making my behind look like a land mine. I have one week left and I am running out of clear non blk&blue welty areas.
with Lovenox as a close second. So far its not that bad but as I go I am sure I will hate it also.
