Stimulation has Begun

You guys! You guys.

I HAVE FINALLY BEGUN TO STIMULATE MY OVARIES.

As of a few moments ago, I am no longer in menopause. (Kind of.) In addition to 5 units of leuprolide acetate, I injected 225 IU of Follistim into my belly. And this comes after a whopping 33 days of downregulation. It's the longest Lupron protocol I can find anywhere on the Interwebs, but it. has. finally. ended.

Welcome back, ovaries! We have a lot of work ahead of us. First order of business: Golden Globes fashion critique. Angelina Jolie: yes or no? I'm leaning towards no, but I still haven't seen a full-length shot of her.

  1. Congratulations on getting started!! So exciting. It does go fast, even if you feel like its dragging at first...enjoy the first week while you feel perfectly normal. :-) So excited for you!

  2. w00t!! It's always so "fun" to get started. Or, maybe not fun, but exciting at least. Good luck!
