Urgent - Follistim or Bravelle?????

[Guest]

Hi Dr. Sher,

I have miscarried 5 times out of which two were chemical pregnancies and altogether 3 were IVF (It was done with Follistim in which we had 5 blasts). We did downregulation with Lupron protocol last cycle. This second cycle we are doing the antagonist protocol. I was wondering should I go for Follistim or Bravelle. I do not want to compromise even slightly on egg quality or embryo quality. Is Follistim the right way to go?? I am ready to pay the price if its better.

We generally like Follistim or Gonal f better than Bravelle or Menopur.

Thanks for your reply!

Dr. Fisch,

Thank you so much for your prompt reply, you really helped me make my decision.

Although, my RE always adds 75 units Menopur to Follistim.

Thanks,
