[quote=Anonymous]During a natural cycle, you start taking Ganirelix about a week or so into your cycle, so that the LH is supressed, and you don't ovulate on your own. Since Ganirelix also suppresses estrogen production, you begin taking Menopur along with the Ganirelix, just as maintenance, so the follicle keeps growing. Then when it's time for retrieval, you take a trigger shot, and 36 hours later, you go in for the egg retrieval. During your TWW, you supplement with progesterone, since your own natural follicle/corpus luteum was aspirated. When we did a natural cycle IVF, we only ended up taking the Ganirelix and Menopur two, maybe three, days. It was so much easier and more relaxed than conventional IVF. I think NC is a good choice for women who don't get many eggs with the stim drugs, like me, or for really young women who's husbands have MF. Of the three clinics we have been to, GW is the nicest and easiest so far. [/quote]
