So my Rx is for Noverel which is HcG. Due to how well I've responded to the stims I'm at risk for hyper stimulation (not good). To prevent this I will take lupron to trigger ovulation rather than HcG. The site I included goes into significant detail on why the switch. In a nutshell HcG stays in the system for 10 days causing the follicles to continue growing even after retrieval. Lupron is out of the system quickly and has the same effect for ovulation minimizing the scare.
Thankfully they had lupron at the office so we were sent home with it w/the wait and see instruction that we may trigger tonight!! We will find out for sure upon the phone call after blood work is in (for estrogen level). If we trigger tonight then retrieval is Monday! Oh my goodness I'm so excited. Most likely we will go back tomorrow morning for pre-op instructions. More later.
