Default Re: Follistim ?

I did two cycles of Follistim. I believe I started the injections on day 3. I think the dose I was taking was 175 units. I ovulated early both times on my own, so never got to the IUI, as planned. I conceive on my first Follistim attempt, with sex at home, but m/c at 8.5 weeks (Turners Syndrome).

Ultimately, I conceived this pregnancy entirely without help.

Good luck with everything!

Hi
I don't know about the follistim, but.....
Your RE is there to help. No matter how many questions you have, they should be willing to help.

Good Luck

I did Follistim when I got pg with my dd, Here is what the doc had me do.
09/14/05 Start 1st IUI cycle (with Injetables) 75iu cd 3-12 150iu cd 13-18 trigger on cd19 IUI on cd21 BFP

I hope all goes well with you and that you get a BFP this month. I know that it only took me one month, but the dr kept a close eye on me to make sure I didn't O early and they gave me a trigger shot to make me O right before the IUI. I was going about every other day to get ultrasounds before I got PG.

Good luck, Lots of babydust coming your way.

Vicki
