Hey! Sorry it's been a while. I've been off for the last two weeks and we don't have Internet at home. So here's the scoop. Like I said earlier the Lupron is supposed to suppress your ovaries. They don't want your body working to try and ovulate on it's own and the Lupron should keep that from happening. Well...it's not working for me. I went and had a blood test on the 27th and my estrogen levels were too high to start the Bravelle and Menopur (Stimulatory drugs aka Stims). We were supposed to start those on the 28th, but were pushed back a week. I went back for a blood test on Wednesday (31st) and my estrogen level was at 103. It's supposed to be below 20 so it was way high. I went back Sunday for another test. They did an ultrasound and another blood test. My estrogen level was at 198 and the ultrasound showed a follicle growing. The follicles come off your ovaries and the follicle is what releases the egg. They show up on an ultrasound and if one is enlarged then that means it's preparing to release the egg which the doctors DON'T want it to do. Due to this I still couldn't start the "Stims." I'm scheduled to go in Thursday morning and they are going to bust that follicle that is growing. By doing that it should make my estrogen levels drop and then we can start the "Stims" on Sunday. Which means we were pushed back two weeks. If it doesn't work then we'll have to cancel the cycle and start again next month with a med other than Lupron. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. The doctor said that some people just don't respond to Lupron, but he feels good that the aspiration of this follicle will work and we can be on our way. I hope everyone had a great Christmas. Happy New Year! Please keep us in your prayers. Thanks. I'll update probably Friday.
