Menopur

Another post. I am so sorry but need reassurance. Thank you all who commented on my ganirelix post.

I administered my own meds tonight. Gonal is always easy.

But menopur, I think I messed it up tonight.

I'm on 75 units of menopur each dose. Tonight I thought I had drawn enough saline (diluent) for 1ml. But when I injected into the menopur vial and pulled the med into the syringe, it was quite short. The saline must have had air in it.

All the meds dissolved though like it should but I was panicking and tried to pull the tiniest drops from the menopur vial to try and even it out.

I put the needle head on and tried to push some of the med out for the droplets and ended up pushing a few droplets out on accident because I was still panicking because of the incorrect prep.

I called my clinic and they said as long the med dissolved, then it should be good no matter how much diluent.

I'm just worried I didn't get the entire dose because of the incorrect prep and pushing on the plunger and ejecting more droplets than usual 😔

Ganirelix

I had my monitoring appt today. My clinic wants me to start Ganirelix tomorrow (day 5 of stims) alongside my other meds.

Can someone please explain to me what this is used for like I'm 5 years old?

It seems a bit early. But this is my first cycle so I am not sure 🤷

Baseline appt at CD5 for ER

Gearing up for ER in hopefully a couple of weeks.

I had a slight delay with my first monitoring appt. It was supposed to be Monday, 5/4 on CD3. I ended up getting it done on CD5 (this past Weds).

PCOS. Suppressed with BC for 2 weeks.

-AFC: 40+

-6.66 lining

-E2: 42.7

-LH: 8.53

-TSH: 2.99

-Progesterone: 0.06

They immediately started me on my stims on Weds after my monitoring appt.

75 menopur, 150 gonal, & 2 tabs of letrozole for the first three days (today is day 3). They will update my meds tomorrow when I go in for my next monitoring appt.

Question is, with the delay in starting stims, will this affect my results with the delay?
