I find this helpful when I am reading other blogs looking for doses of what the future may hold.
I am young but have elevated FSH and a low antral follicle count for my age, this means I have probable diminished ovarian reserve, so my RE is breaking out the big guns early and putting me on the Lupron Flare Protocol to minimize suppression, she is also starting me on higher doses of Follistim and adding small HCG because of my lean body mass.

April 12 - Start BCP
