IVM #2

So I'm back into the swing of things.
This cycle I am doing 5 days of 150iu Gonal-F injections, the first of which I did this morning. It was actually quite scary starting again. You forget how much strength is needed to keep going. I'm exhausted by the process already.

My fertility specialist is going to be away for my egg collection. I'm really quite scared about this, I'm sure the other DR who will do the EPU has experience in IVF egg collection, but IVM is so much harder and painful. I don't think I could handle anything more painful than I already had, and that was with someone who was experienced in IVM EPU. Also the fact that it's a male, I know you are meant to leave your modesty at the door, but it does still upset me that every man and his dog has played around with my girly parts.
