hi ladies
this is my first ivf and iv been taking a drug called puregon since day 3 of my cycle and wondered if anybody else has used this drug and been sucsessfull on getting a response from the drug,cos most ladies are taking different drugs.
i have my first scan tom to c if im responding,but i just have a gut feeling that im not,cos i just dont feel any different around the tummy or anything.
no bloatedness or anything.
just wanted other ladies experiances on the drug and if this is how i should be feeling.
thanxs for advise

Hi Maxy

,

I havn't noticed you around the board's before,have you just joined us?
I too was given puregon injections followed by a boster when the folicles were big enough for my iui and have so have had one unsuccessful try and am currently waiting to see if the second one has been
successful(fingers crossed!)
Dont worry that you dont feel bloated or sore thats completeley normal.Have you had a scan before? I remember my 1st one i didnt realise it was internal

how embarresing!

Hi Maxy,

I am also on Puregon. I am CD16 and I have about 10 follies all together. I will be having my IUI's tues and wed. Just a note when you see the drug Follistim it is the same as Puregon. In US it is sold as Follistim in Europe it is sold as Puregon. Hope this helps.
