Calculating my transfer date?
Hello
I wonder if anyone can calculate when are my retrieval/transfer dates going to be? Today is my 11th day of Lupron. I have my Day 3 baseline blood work and ultrasound on Thursday since I got my menses today. I think I'll start the Gonal F injections this Friday. I'm thinking that my transfer is going to happen this month right?

I took my Lupron for 5 days and than started my gonal F for the following five days along with the lupron. I than had my egg retrieval that following sunday. so mine went really quik. once you start your gonal F its just a matter of your eggs being ready. it can go quik or you can be on it for two weeks. unless for some reason it doesnt work for you you will most likely be having it with in the next two weeks maybe sooner. Good luck and if you want to see what I went through you can read my juarnals on my profile to help you know what you can expect. good luck and hope it works for you. I got my BFP on my first shot. :)
Thank you all for your responses!!

You will have your ER this month and most likely your ET. When depends on what your RE plans for you and how well you respond - and what your issue is. My RE purposely did not prescribe high doses of Follistim for me b/c he only wanted me to produce 6-10 mature follies - my issue is not producing too few follies, but rather he wanted to improve the quality. I had used injectables before (+iui) and I always over-responded so my dose was not high. I started injectables on 10/22 and I had my ER on 11/3. I did a 5 day transfer. My RE recommends a 5 day transfer when possible - as long as I had 4+ good embies on day 3, but I know that some RE's always do a 3 day transfer.
My RE did warn me ahead of time that he would go slow to decrease my chances of over-responding and developing OHSS. If I developed OHSS, then he said that he would do the ER but the embies would be frozen and the ET would be delayed for a couple of months. Good luck!
