Anyone starting IVF Jan/Feb 2009?

I am on a break after we canceled my 2nd IVF due to low follie count, I am taking BCP and DHEA for 2 months and then trying again. Just wondering if anyone else is on a break in between or just starting first one in Jan/Feb 2009. We can pass the time, while we wait.

well, I just got the news about my bloodwork.  My estrogen levels are only 58, and I think they should be around 150 at this point, They are increasing my meds hoping that will do the trick. I don't go back until Friday...so not sure what will happen. This is similar to what happened last time, but the levels were so low they had no choice but to cancel. I hope this turns around.  I wish there was something I can do to improve my levels!!!!

Hey, great way to update the post, I love it. It's so hard to check back and see where everyone is, your post is making it so easy, thank you! I see your on the BCP, so it's just a matter of time, good luck to you and I will pray for lots and lots on follies!!

Well, so far so good.  After 3 days on Follistem, I have about 8 follicles. That is average for me. I know some of my friends have had so many more, but they are younger. I am 41, so I am thankful for what I have now.  I'll know my blood levels later...for now, things are headed in the right direction.
