New IVF Schedule

We went to the doctor this past week and got our IVF schedule for January. I will start my stimulation drugs on the 2oth, retrieval is set for the 31st and transfer on Feb. 5th. These dates are give or take a few days earlier or later depending on how my body is responding to the medications. I have been tested for the fragile-X chromosome and should have results by the end of this coming week. ( If I am a carrier, then we sit and talk with the doctor about our % of having a normal healthy baby). Our doctor is increasing my medicine to the extent that he would give a 40 year old woman. He said my body does not respond as it should be, so hes really turning up the notch. If I have a cycle like a did before ( which was not that great) after giving me all these medications, then we will have to sit down and talk with the doctor because most likely it is my eggs. Our hope is with this increase in dosage I will produce the eggs and estrogen levels that he wants to see and we grow nice little embroys.
