Hello all....
Tommorow is an exciting day....I feel that is. I feel that we ahve reached another milestone. My husband is going to do the injections...thank goodness. I was just getting everything ready for the am. So hopefully 10 days of meds and we continue on to the other mile stone.
has anyone felt any side effects with the repronex and gonal f? I have also been taking the Synarel. I have found that I am getting alot of headaches. But I was wondering if there are any side effects from the other drugs.
thanks girls and i look forward to hearing from anyone...this is an awesome site. i am happy to have found it.
1st Injection day

Hi Escottjo 
Welcome! Good luck with your cycle!
After a few days on stims I always start to feel 'pings and pangs' in my ovaries. Closer to retrieval day feel bloated and a bit yucky but that's about it!!

HI Escottjo - from the syneral, I was very emotional, weepy and headaches but nothing major. When I was taking Gonal-f - the only side effects was bloating and crampy but that only last for a few hours after each shot. My husband had to give me the needles - I hate needles.
Good luck!!!!
Good luck!!!!

Hello Escottjo,
I am on suprefact, repronex and Gonal F. I hate needles too so my DH gives them to me too. So far I have headaches - many of them. Right now I am bloated. My Gonal F dose has been decreased as I am overstimulating. My E2 was 1600 on Monday and 3300 yesterday. Yikes! Just hope my cycle is not cancelled.
Good luck!
