Hi Dr. Sher, I loved your podcast with Dr. Aimee! I’m doing a3rd retrieval and had some thoughts/Q’s. I’m 36 years old, AMH 1.6.

1st retrieval 5 eggs – 3 mature – 3 fertilized – 2 euploid embryos. 2nd retrieval 5 eggs – 5 mature – 1 fertilized – 1 frozen day 3. 1st round I was on 3 days of estrace and provera prior to stimming. Started w/ letrozole 10mg x5 days and also Gonal-f 225 IU x10days, menopur 75 x10 days, prednisone 5mg BID, low dose naltrexone. On day 6 added ganirelix x6 days, then on day 11 triggered with lupron 4mg and pregnyl 10,000. Then day 12 triggered with lupron 4mg.

2nd retrieval was exactly the same except we added Omnitrope 5.8mg throughout stimming.

I’m interested in priming with BC longer and what are your thoughts on taking Omnitrope for a month or two beforehand? I’ve heard of people taking leuprolide acetate during stims – thoughts? Very interested in starting with lupron on day 1 as well like you mentioned. Thank you!
