[quote=Anonymous]I was on lurpon, menopur and bravelle and had 6 eggs. The problem with this type of article and that for the vast majority of women, myself included, we have no idea going into IVF if its high or low dose. I just took what my dr recommended. I had questions but the dosing amount wasn't one of them. Unfortunately this seems to be one of those things that you don't really know if the dose was "too high" until you end up sick or in the hospital. My case was different in that I had almost no side effects from stims but I did get pregnant from IVF and then almost immediately my ovaries really swelled up and I developed mild OHSS (did not require a dr to drain fluid). the nurse said that its pretty common to happen AFTER a pregnancy occurs even though everything up till point was easy. It really is so much trial and error which is what makes it scary to me. [/quote]
