I saw that clinic out here is doing an infertility trial with GnRh as patch form. I don't know if I should mention it when i'm going up there next week so I was wanting opinions.

If you had the chance to would you try it out?

i know its basically where they try out a new fertility drug. GnRh is Gonadotropin-releasing hormone. I believe its the drug used for injectables, just a different form.

Well, personally, I would do my own research online and ask my doctor what she thinks and then together I would make an informed decision with my DH. I think anything that could help would definitly be positive, but not if those are chemicals that your body may not need or even react to because that would just be putting unwanted hormones in your system. I guess your doctor could tell you if you could benefit from the trial depending on prior tests results or something. A clinical trial does not necessarily mean the drug is absolutely safe either (but at least if it is the same drug, just a different form as what is already available in injectables, it should be safer than an unknown drug trial, I would presume).You have nothing to lose in asking you doc, is the way I see it. Good luck! And I would definitly love to hear more about it if you get more information...might be useful to some of us too someday!

I would talk with your Dr. about it first of course, but if its something he thinks may be a good idea, then maybe look into it. And yes you are right they are one type of drug used in injectables.

i am a believer in waiting till something is proven than being the guinea pig. Especially where your fertility is concerned... G/L, let us know what you decide...
