[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What was your dose of stim medication? Did you start off the cycle on birth control pills? I expect they’ll lower the stim dose for your next cycle. It’s better to have 8-10 eggs of good quality than 20+ of poor quality, as you’ve experienced.[/quote] Birth control - yes 150 iu Gonal F and 150 Menopur per day[/quote] It's been a few years since I did IVF, but these numbers jumped out at me. I think it's pretty unusual to do equal doses of Gonal F and Menopur. I don't remember actual doses, but I think my Menopur was always much less (like 1/2 the dose of Gonal F). Your RE may have had a reason for this dosing, but you should ask why. A little Googling suggests this is a pretty uncommon protocol.[/quote] Hard disagree here. I did two retrievals and my protocol both times was 150 gonal and 150 menopur, and I was successful.[/quote]
