[quote=Anonymous]I've posted on here before, but am happy to share again. I have a serious needle phobia, meaning 10 years in therapy for the issue. Imagine my surprise to learn that I'm IF and can only have kids via IVF. And you know what, I got through it. To do so, I had my RE use medications that could be blended into a single daily shot. I used only estrogen patches and progesterone suppositories. Before my one daily shot, I iced the heck out of the area and barely felt it. The whole thing went from being horrifying - maybe better not to have kids than go through it - to really just another part of life. I now have two kids via IVF and have done multiple cycles. For me, the blood draws still cause panic, but I can get through the rest just fine.[/quote]
