My IVF protocol

Lucky for me, AF showed her faced yesterday at about 5:00pm. (yay!)

I went to the RE this morning to get BW done to start BCP, and BW for the genetic screening. I also got my IVF calendar.

Today I start BCP and take them for 11 days, brining me to the 28th of November.

**In the meantime, DH and I have our orientation tonight, DH's SA on Sunday (the day we both have to take antibiotics) and my water sono on Monday.**

After the 11 days of BCP I go 2 days doing nothing. December 1st I go in for BW and Sono, and if everything looks good, I start stimming on that day. My stim meds include menopur, dexamethasone pill and then ganerelix when told to start.

Projected trigger date: 12/10 with egg retrieval on 12/12, fertilization report 12/13, transfer on 12/15.Start what they called vag caps and what i'm assuming is progesterone suppositories on 12/16, and estraderm patches on 12/19.

Here we go!
