Estrogen Priming Protocol

[Anonymous]

I'm starting my stims tonight. I've been on the Estrace for about 10 days now. I'm just wondering if everyone stayed on the Estrace or estrogen patches when they started stims? I was told "yes" this afternoon but the nurse was not a regular IVF nurse. I'm double checking with the doctor tomorrow, so at the worst, I'll have had one extra dose of Estrace with my stims, if I'm really not supposed to continue.

TIA.

Who is your RE? I ask because different clinics/docs do the protocol different ways. I have even stopped estrace and stayed on it with the same RE!! So, it really depends, but at least knowing who the doc is will give a little more insight.

OP here. Sacks

PP here. Sacks typically keeps you on estrace while stimming. I would definitely take it tonight and call in the AM to confirm he wants you to continue on it.
