Ohhh More meds

When the doctor called they told me that since my lining was already pretty thick that  I should be prepared for my calendar to possibly change because they cannot let my lining get too thick or it would cause problems with the transfer.

I was told to stay on the one baby aspirin each day, the 5 units of  Lupron, but to increase my patches to 2 a day starting on Monday which was cycle day 11. I went back to the doctor the next day for another lining check and a blood draw. My lining was measuring at 10.7mm and my estrogen level was at 341. At this point they want to see that level at least 300. Anything over that is still good and just means that I am still responding well to the medication.

My calendar states I should increase my patches to 3 but since they do not want my lining to get too thick I will remain at 2 every other day and go back in to have another check on Friday, cycle day 15.

My check up on Cycle day 15 went pretty good. My lining was measuring just about 11mm which is good because they are trying to avoid it getting too thick. My estrogen level came back at 114, which is very low compared to the last check up. So I was instructed to start on an oral form of estrogen daily and to increase my patches to 3 a day. I am hoping that my calendar stays on track still but I will need to go back in to the doctor on Cycle day 18 to have another check.

On a side note, I took my last Lupron injection on Saturday night which was cycle day 16. :)
