Hello girlies.
I've been away from this site for a while as have been on my month break in between treatments.
About to embark on my 2nd ICSI and have just had the day 21 appointment with the doctor.
I had poor response to stimi last time, so they are changing me from 200IU of Puregon to 450IU of Gonal F. Seems like a big jump but apparently doc thinks it is necessary as I have a very low reserve anyway and one ovary didn't seem to respond at all last time.
I'm also really worried about it as:
a) it may sting more
b) I'll go even more loopy than last time
c) it will be obvious from any side effects that I'm going through IVF
Any advice from anyone who has been on this before would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks girlies!
