Need some advise......

I went today for b/w for stim day 4 and had to up the dosage of my Menopur to 2 vials 75U instead of 1 vial. Can someone please give me some advise! Menopur is a new med for me. I really didnt want to bother my nurse on a Sunday AFTER hours! She did re-assure me that everything else looked good. I just pray I have enough follicles on stim day 6 when I go for b/w & u/s on Tuesday!! Please pray for me! Thanks ladies.

I don't think it is unusual for your DR to adjust your Menopur. I have been through 3 cycles and they adjusted the dosage on all three times. Good luck.

I agree, it is normal for them to adjust your meds up or down. Fingers crossed for you!

I took Repronex this cycle which is basically the same as Menopur. I started at 2 vials a day. I was also using a lower dose of Gonal-f since they added the Repronex. But it is normal for them to tweek our meds. That is part of why they have us come in so often and do the u/s and labs. Then they can change something. Or it could of been they wanted to start you off lower and then increase it. Either way, I am sure it will all work out and you will have lots of good follicles. You are in my prayers.

You ladies are awesome! I dont know what I'd do without y'all! I feel so much support here. At my appt, I let my nurse know about this site and asked her to share it with the other ladies so they can get this great support, I think they would appreciate it!

Well, I have b/w & u/s tomorrow for stim day 6. Hopefully things will look good to continue!

    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...
