Here's my stats from IVF #1:
bcp's 2 weeks lupron 10 units 8 days (started on last bcp day) lupron 5 units (on all stimming days) follistim 225iu (9 days stimming) ovidrel trigger
23 follies retrieved, 18 mature, 12 fertilized with ICSI
Day 2 post ER: All 12 growning nicely, almost all were 4 celled, grade 1. Day 3 post ER: All 12 stopped/slowed growth...most remained at 4 cell level...only 2 progressed to 6/7-cells Day 4 post ER: No viable embryos Day 5 post ER: All embryos discarded
All 12 embryos arrested by day 5.
For my next IVF, I will be using the same protocol, except I will [u]add LH to my stimming phase and plan to transfer on Day 3 (rather than day 5)[/u]...I'm worried this won't help much. What's your experience been with adding LH for this situation? Would you do something different?
(I'm 30 y/o, and all my pre-ivf testing is normal and looks very good).
Thanks!
