Has anyone ever used human growth hormone during stim? My RE is suggesting a new protocol using human growth hormone based on the recent research article for poor responders.
I am already on DHEA to increase egg quality per RE and Royal Jelly per my own research.
My next stim cycle begins on Jan. 16.
Also does anyone know the cost of human growth hormone for a stim cycle? The RE said he wanted me to stim for 10-12 days this time instead of 8 like I did last time with 5 immature eggs resulting (of the 9 harvested).
Thanks
