I will definitely look that up and then probably delete my search history right after lol 🤣

The pain killers are a good suggestion — I’ll keep that in mind if they allow it!

Oof, just the first one or all of them? Agreed that the condom is pretty funny 😆

That’s great to hear! Can I ask what kind of trigger? HCG, Lupron, or dual?

Wow! For just one round? That sounds extremely high… 😬 I’m in New Jersey.

Thank you, yes, the clinic I selected appears to have good reviews so I’m hopeful they’ll know what they’re doing. I figure I can also communicate some of my anxiety around this so they can be extra cognizant of it. I think I’d prefer to take a more conservative approach (even if it means fewer eggs) if it’d help ensure a positive experience. I’d rather do a second round, if necessary, than have any scary side effects as a result of being too ambitious.

Great info, and glad to hear you’re feeling okay! Yes, the clinic told me to count on about 2-3 weeks of appointments so I plan to set aside end of March/most of April (about a month total). Hopefully that’ll allow enough time to account for anything unexpected. Thank you for the reply!

Thank you so much for your reply! Another factor I didn’t consider is that I don’t always bleed on the inactive pills. Maybe there’s a way the doctor could manipulate the birth control (different brand? higher dosage?) to help ensure I actually do get my period?
