Lupron

July 23, 2008

My RE gave me two shots of Lupron 3.75mg two weeks apart to begin my IVF cycle.I suffered major hotflashes and mood swings. I than began taking Follistim. My third sonogram my RE saw one follicles on either of my ovaries, so she cancelled my cycle. This is the first time we've tried IVF. My estrogen level was 32 at the time. She put me on Premarin twice a day. My question is could my RE have over suppressed my ovaries? How long is it when we can try another cycle?

Welcome jrar847!

Unlikely that this truly is the case, but some people do respond better to other protocols, but not significantly...

Very concerned your Estrogen only reached 32pg/mL (assuming this is the unit of measurement), You can try after at least a month with a different protocol and hope it goes better this next time..

If it doesn't, best to consider donor eggs *****BabyDust*****
