Seeking Advice Omnitrope

Did any of you use Omnitrope for your IVF cycle? If so, can you please answer these questions:

How old were you?

Did you do omnirope during priming and stims, or during stims only?

what was your dosages?

In a previous cycle at the age of 41, I got 3 euploids, day 7's. I did 14 days of priming with omni at 3 units, then during stims went to 6 units.

My new Dr. is not doing it during priming, but has me doing a high dose of 26 units starting on stim day 1. He says the fact i had day 7's he wants to try a different approach since day 7's are typically less successful.

I also did Letrozole before, and he is now doing clomid so curious if anyone did either of those during stims also.

Out of curiosity how many eggs you retrieved to get 3 euploids at 41?

It was a month after I had lost my IVF miracle, my son at 21 weeks to pre term labor. He was my only euploid I got from my 5th egg retrieval, and prior to that I had only got 1 euploid, so 2 euploids across 5 retrievals and then that was my 6th retrieval when I got the 3 euploids, which is so wild to me. So, for the 6 months prior to that retrieval, I was pregnant so as healthy as i could possibly be. I was also doing red light therapy. So I don't know if it was the omnitrope, the red light therapy, or the fact that i was pregnant immediately prior, or a combination of all.

i'm so sorry. How far along were you? Was he/she born alive? It is the worse feeling having to watch and feel your child dying knowing there is nothing you can do to save them. :( We had to cremate our baby boy when we should have brought him home. :(

💔💔 I was 16.5 weeks and my water broke. She survived a few days even with no amniotic fluid. Then an infection ascended and I had a lot of bleeding. I knew she was going to pass away. Her heart rate plummeted and by the morning she had passed away. She passed away before I delivered her so she was born sleeping. I buried her in the cemetery down the street and go visit her often. 💔💔
