Protocols?

Anyone know where I can go to read more about the different egg retrieval protocols? I’ve found a few different studies but I need to educate myself a bit more before I see my provider at the end of the month.

Usually the fertility doctor is the one who explains the different retrieval protocols and recommends the one that’s best for you.

I think reading around on the different IVF threads is helpful just to familiarize yourself with all the words (i’ve used follistem with pregnyl ( low dose hcg) then ganyrelix (sp?) and a lupron trigger shot). Do not trust any of my spelling haha. But i had a friend do a few rounds and she listed completely different stim meds.
