How much Lupron?

Hello! I'm doing my first FET in December. I've started my pills and I'll be starting my Lupron on Sunday. My question for you is, how many units are you doing/did you do for your cycle? I'm only doing 10 units every night. Is that kind of low? Or is that pretty average for anyone? I know everyone is different, but I just thought I'd ask!

Thanks!

I had 10 units as well. Seems pretty standard.

Hi wishing -

I've never done an FET, but for my fresh cycle I started out with 10U 1x/day.

I think it's a pretty standard dosage for IVF.

Best of luck this cycle!!

We are going to transfer 2...or at least we're pretty sure that is what we're going to do.
Both my OB and my RE suggested we transfer 1, but my RE said he wouldn't be mad if we wanted to do 2. I know it is risky, but I will be getting a cerclage at 12 weeks, P17 shots, and lots of bedrest. I am hopeful that those things will help us carry to term.

Good luck to you!
