hey girls ......... I am going to be taking this new Brevella injections in july and I have follistim and repronex left over ---------- has anyone taken them together ------ Brevella and Follistim --- or -----
Brevella and Repronex. I am going to ask my doctor But I am on this Study program for Brevella and they are going to say no -- don't take together because of the program --- (the program is paying for half of my IVF ) But ofcourse we will pump yourselves up with anything if it gives us a better chance..........

so what do you think ---- do it or not !!! I'll listen to my girl's

By the time we are all finish --- we could all be specialist in infertility !! ha !!!

I would not do it. I too will be taking Bravelle. I noticed that alot of RE mix follitism and repronex or gonal-r. But everyone I know so far taking bravelle only takes that and nothing else. There must me a reason. Anyway that is my 2 cents worth.

I agree with Boundi, I wouldn't mix it. I'm on 2 amps of Bravelle days 3-14. I only have two side effects one bad: horrible migraines; and one good: weight gain. I will let you know if my foll. size improves after next dr appt.
