Tomorrow I start daily Lupron Injections. Lupron is an injectable medication used at least 10 days before the start of ovarian stimulation. Under normal conditions, only one egg is allowed to develop and mature in a cycle. When there are multiple follicles (the beginning stage of an egg) growing at the same time, our body reguates this process by preventing the other follicles from maturing. Lupron stops our body's process by allowing multiple follicles to mature at one time. So for the next several days I will be taking a combination of Birth control pills and Lupron so that all of my follicles will mature for the next stage in IVF treatment: stimulation.
