drinking during IVF protocol?
August 28, 2008
Hi Dr.
I am on the 7th night of meds, 150 Menopur, 150 Follistim and 5 Lupron for my IVF cycle with possible retrieval on Monday. I am also taking Doxycycline. With all these meds in my system I am thinking it might not be a good idea to drink. A few of us are going to a baseball game and I want to have a few drinks but don't want to take any risk when I'm so close to the retrieval and transfer. Thanks for any input!!! Have a great weekend :O)

One drink (the equivalent of a glass of wine) while maintaing good hydration during the summer months should be ok..
More than this may dehydrate you too much and may be detrimental
