Q: Femara and Novarel (HCG Shot) combination
asked by: snu67 on March 26th, 2008

I started a 5 day course of Femara on 24th Feb, went for ultrasound on 6th March (Day 12) Had 2 eggs on my left side, so was able to get my HCG shot. So far so good.
Period was due 20th March, still nothing. Throughout this whole time I have had some discomfort in my lower left abdomon. Slightly spotted today, (26th March-redish/Pinkish/Brown) 6 days late. Not done pregnancy test yet. Trying to wait till day 35. (29th) Hopefully get an accurate test result.
As you can tell I am getting a bit impatient.
Any imput from anyone as to if they have had same symptons on this combination?
Concerned that I could have a tubular pregnancy

Well, since all this my period started. So I was SOL that month.
2nd month wasen't much better. No eggs this time, so no shot.
And YES, the Femara does make you a little depressed and very disapointed. But next month I will be a little prepared for it, and hopefully will be ablt to deal with it better.

Due to the cyst I had last month, which I failed to mention. I was very optimus this month. Thankfully it had gone, otherwise, I would have to go on the birth control pill to help it disappear, and maybe change from Femara. but .
Due to being on vacation for the next round, we decided to give it a break and so next month, we will be trying the follistim. (The stomach shots). Along with this comes bigger bills. All I see is $, $, and more $.
I don't know how many times we will try this, but we will see. Things are really bginning to get expensive. It is very worrying.
I will keep you all posted.
Even though you view my posts, it would be nice, if once in a while you would send me back some imput.

Femara and Novarel
i wanted to reply back, and i hope you still get on here and read the messages. I just started the Femara on May 25th, and i'm going for an u/s tomorrow( June 2). I'm very nervous, and just hoping all this works. I'm supposed to take the Novarel injection with me so i can be instructed on all the details. So anyways, i worry about the $ issue too; all this can be so much to handle, so its great to talk to others who've been there too. I hope to hear from you soon.
