Note: I didn’t have blood tests done at every scan. The scan results usually determined when and what I needed to have my blood tested for. Keeping the blood tests to a minimum helped keep costs down a little.
RESULT – Cycle Cancelled – body not responding to hormones. Dr. Greg decided we should cancel this cycle as my body didn’t seem to be responding to the stimulation at all this time around. He thought it best to do it now rather than keep pumping my body full of hormones that seemed to be doing little or no good.
