IVF Timetable

Hi There,

Were wanting to book a weekend away before we start IVF , but im not sure of all the timescales and I dont want to be away from home whilst im injecting. We have a nurses appointment at the end of the month where im sure she will go through the timetable with us, but Im just eager to book something up so we have something to look forward to.

I have taken the below from a flowchart the hospital gave me but I think I have interpreted it wrong as it doesnt make sense to me to insert embryo in Week 4!
Week 1 Pill
Week 2 Pill
Week 3 Pill
Week 4 gnrh injection
Week 1 - gnrh injection & FSH
Week 2 - gnrh injection & FSH
Week 3 - Collection
Week 4 Insertion

Can you help?
Thanks

Hi.
You'll have egg collection and embryo transfer between 3-5 days after that.

You are doing long protocol whereas I did short protocol, but I would say that when you start doing injections you will probably have frequent trips to clinic for bloods and scans. I literally went every other day.

Personally I found the hardest bit the 2 ww after the ET, so I would have loved a break then to while away the time.

Good luck and I'm sure your clinic will be able to advise you more if needed.
