Bump It Up

I had my first monitoring appointment on the stimulation drugs today. Not much progress at this point. A rise in estrogen levels indicates that the follicles are beginning to grow. My estrogen went down.

Again, not much of a surprise. I didn't respond well to the drugs last time either, and I ended up having to do injections for longer than normal. I had hoped things might go more smoothly this time, but I didn't have any real reason to think they would.

So we bumped up the meds tonight. 300 units Gonal-f and 150 units Menopur. Appointment again Monday morning (reminder to self--find someone to watch Tess).

That Menopur burns going in. I don't remember it hurting so much last time.
