Why so many hoops LOL I'm of course waiting on AF to start BCP's but I'm also waiting on a local Psychologist to call me with a price and time for our therapy session. I kind of wish I'd never have found any online groups just because my local clinic has so many 'pre study' things that you HAVE to do and I keep comparing it to everyone elses timelines. It seems like I'm never going to start. Plus the fact that my clinic charges you for the study, plus meds, plus the male testing, plus the therapy session......it's neverending. I almost feel like quitting before I even begin With gas prices going up more everyday, I needed to get started 2 months ago LOL It's a 2 hour drive (111 miles) to my clinic...so again, I'm just having a flustered day and PMS isn't helping, neither is my 4 year old who refuses to take a nap....LOL!!!

I'm glad they could move it up Nikki! Probably best to do this now and have a better chance at having the pregnancy stick for sure!! Did they say how long after the surgery you could cycle??

Hi Girls,

Just a small question... We need to take Lupron during the morning or at night????
I know that I need to ask tomorrow to Maryanne, but I heard someone said that need to be at night and in my calendar says: "AM"? Is it right?

I always took my Lupron in the am. The stims are taken in the PM because those can change based on your bloodwork results (E2 levels). When I asked Maryanne about it she said Lupron around 7 -8 am. Some places are probably different in their protocols...I would just do what the paperwork says to avoid any confusion
