RE advised me to take HCG to keep the ovulation timing in control. Usually I ovulate naturally on CD 14 which is tomorrow. But, RE asked me to take Ovidrel shot tonight at 10 PM. So does the shot delay my natural ovulation until 36 hours? I should have asked my RE when I spoke to her. But the question just triggered to me. I will send a portal message to RE. Meanwhile, posting here for answers that may help keeping my mind off from these questions or googling. TIA!!

Are you stimming and on cetrotide or ganirelex? Cetrotide/ganirelex prevents ovulation which is why you’re told to stop taking it before you trigger with Ovidrel.

Agree, if you’ve been on Ganirelix or similar, there’s nothing “natural” about your cycle. You can disregard the 14 days because they are timing it appropriately with the meds you’ve been given. The Ovidrel overrides any natural ovulation. Once you trigger the shot, your LH spikes and literally triggers ovulation.

I try to ask them to revise when I can, but we often don’t have time for more rounds of that. How can I handle this better?
