Is The Combination Of The Pill +Lupron The Same As The Agonist/Antagonist Conversion Protocol?
I am considering pursuing a fourth round of IVF. Two doctors have told me that I should use the pill + Lupron before beginning the Menopur/Follistim stimulation. My question: is this combination of the Pill+Lupron the same as the Agonist/Antagonist Conversion Protocol?

NO they are not the same. They are different regimes and you should follow as the doctors told you
THe pill is artificial hormone progesterone and estrogen and leuprolide is gonadotrophin. Follistim is artificial FSH and menopur is menotropin. THey all act differently
