Pls Help! Side Effects of Ivf Injections
Posted: 07-06-04 09:53am

I'm starting my ivf treatment today. My doc gave me decapeptyl 0.1mg today and i'll be injecting myself for the coming 6 days. I'll then undergo a blood test on the 2nd day of my coming period. Then will start having injections of another kind afterwards.

Did anyone went thru these and can give me some info? I wish you can share with me about the side effects of all these ivf injections. I heard that the drug i'm taking has quite a few bad effects. I'm so confused. Confused

Hi !!!!!
I just want to wish you luck!!
I'm almost close to ivf like you, but i'm still waiting my turn.

I can try to find some information for you on one of croatian site where i'm posting for long time, so just ask. Wink

as far as I know, those injection is not that often with bed effects.
You just have to keep contact with your doc.
Sometimes it's happened that some womens have hyperstimulation ( because of all of hormones), but it is not dangers and it is not often. Even if that happened you can go on ivf procedure. Don't worry and be strong.
All what you doing now is for your baby, and you will the most happier mother in the world.
I wish you that from the bottom of my heart.
Take care and be strong! You can do that!!!! Big hug!! :d

sorry on my bad english , I m just croatian girl Wink

Thanks!!!!!

Hi,

sadcat, I wish you to become happycat as soon as possible Wink
and you will be!! Im sure!!

Regarding croatian site im talking about, we have conversation on our language which is croatian, but if you need any information you can come and visit us, many of girls speak english too.
Some of them are american or canadian citizen which leave in usa or canada but they are croatian in "original". You know what I mean.

Also, we gave a big support to each other and it is so important.
In july we have 9 pregnant women by ivf which is great.
Some of them have twins.
I wish I have twins too. I have names for them already. Crazy, did I Wink Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

many of information I need they gave me, and we share information.
It is so great when you know that you are no only one with that problem of infertility. Girls are great!!

How are you??? Do you feel any pain when you gave injection by yourself??
How is going with your eggs?? They growing enough good??
How is going with aspiration (when doctor takes your eggs) I mean is it painfull?? Or it is your first time??
In croatia womens doesent have deep narcosa in that moment, doc gave us only pain killer, but it is ok.
I know I will be strong in that moment because I will know that I m soooooo cloooossseeee to haaavvee babbyyyy. Finally!! Can t wait!!

How is with your husband sperms? Is it good enough??
My boyfriend have oligoasthenozospermia, which means not enough of speed sperms and not enough in volumen. But we found some vitamines which helps in that. Now "our" spermiogram is better in 30% because of vitamines. It is great!!!

Okay, I really talk to much, you can imagine how much I m talking on my own language. Embarassed
wish you luck and be strong!
Please let me know result of bhcg.
Big hug :d

Hi Maja
Posted: 07-09-04 21:58pm

Hi, maja.

You're really sweet! We also have similar thoughts!! I cant stop myself thinking about babies' names.... Sooooo siily.... :p and sometimes i've dreams about my doc telling me i'm preg and I said to her it couldnt be. Or my husband playing with kids etc.... But now I try not to focus too much on this. Then i'm less stressful.

By calculations, I think the doc will probably be collecting my eggs at around 30th / 31st jul. I'm very nervous. I dont know what's going to happen. The doc told me i'll have to go to the hospital to to that. Then after 2 / 3 days, the fertilized egg will be put back inside me. I need to go back to the hospital to do that. Honestly, i'm quite scared Sad

my husband's sperm count & mobilty are normal. When I was doing iui (i did 5 iuis before going into ivf), the sperms were washed to increased performance. So. It couldnt be causing infertility. But i've also being checked. I'm perfectly normal too!!! So what's wrong??!! Anyways, I try to stop thinking too much because that annoys me.

Injecting myself doesnt cause too much trouble. But sometimes i's just not brave enough to do it quickly. I'm like doing it in slooooow motion. Also, the side effects are not too severe on me. I feel tired, sometimes hot flushes. I havent put myself on a scale so not sure about gaining weight.

When will be your turn? God will grant wishes to nice people like you!! So you dont have to worry. You'll soon be a happy mum too.
