I'd rather find other ways to supplement instead, even if it's inconvenient. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-827223 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:38:43 +0000 raintreebee 827223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some doctors do a second HCG shot to boost progesterone (and thus to help implantation). I guess the same theory could apply with a Lupron trigger. As far as the harm goes, I have no idea, but just because something is still an embryo doesn't mean it is invincible. In fact, prior to week 8 is a very crucial time for development. That being said, the lupron is maybe out of your system by the time of implantation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-827207 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:32:42 +0000 spaniellove 827207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Apex: I think it can cause harm to whatever is there...embryo...fetus...whatever. Like my seizure meds can cause all kinds of permanent damage (anencephaly, spina bifida, other neural tube defects) before 6 weeks, and it's category D. Supposedly Lupron can cause miscarriage as well, so I'm leaning towards refusing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-827158 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:19:26 +0000 Apex 827158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If technically, there's no fetus yet (a fetus is an unborn human baby more than eight weeks after conception), can it really be that harmful??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-827139 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:14:35 +0000 TheReelDeal 827139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think trusting your instinct is the best call. I'm not sure I understand how a drug that can be harmful to a fetus would be suggested to help with implantation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-827126 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:08:33 +0000 spaniellove 827126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As far as I know this is pretty uncommon to do and for good reason! Lupron is a category X drug so I'm really unsure about whether I'd want to take it in the 2ww. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-826849 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 11:47:33 +0000 swedishfish 826849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never heard of this either but I'm not an RE. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-826782 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 11:34:01 +0000 Apex 826782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never actually heard that before, but i'm no doctor. So, in my own opinion, it wouldn't hurt to try, who knows, it might actually work...... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lupron-and-implantation#post-826737 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 11:18:43 +0000 spaniellove 826737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone ever used Lupron around 7dpo to help with implantation? Y'all already know I go to a crazy RE; today they told me to do a shot of Lupron in a week to help with implantation. I'm afraid to do this, especially knowing that I've gotten pregnant before without it... </p>
