Late af on Lupron

I am starting my first round of IVF this month - on CD 21 I start 10U of Lupron and they mentioned it could make af later than usual.

Did anyone else experience this? How late were you? I am just hoping it does not mess up my cycle dates too much.

Thanks!

I did the exact same thing my first IVF cycle. Started Lupron actually it was day 22 in morning (tested pregesterone on day 21) I did 10 units a day. AF was only one day late.
I just started my second round this morning. Same thing, Lupron 10 units. AF is due next week, so we will see...

Did you start Lupron yet?

Both last time and this time when i began my Lupron i stopped taking birth control and within three days AF arrived. I understand though for some the Lupron can stall your period so hang in there.

Thanks! I am CD 18 now and start the 10 U of Lupron on Friday (CD 21 for me). I am usually a 28 day cycle person and I am hoping it is about the same. I did not do BCPs and this is my first IVF. My FSH was 13.8 at one time and I am 33 so I think they are being careful not to over suppress me.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
