I'm supposed to take my last injection for this round of my 23 day P2 on Monday, the 21st, but TOM is due to visit on 12/18 and will last thru the 21st so I won't be doing my injections. Soooo, do I just go into my three VLCD with no injections and be done on the 24th as planned?
If your skipping shots...I never did because someone told me that the worst that happens is you waste those few days...then I would take the last three shots after your TOM. Not fun since you probably want to be P3 by Christmas. You could also keep taking the shots while on TOM and do LID as planned. I get my TOM 3 times in a 40 day cycle GRRRRRRR so I don't follow that I just take them and let things end where they may. I started TOM 2 days before my last shot on R2 and was fine stabilizing by ignoring it and following my schedule. It's really a personal choice.
lilskigirl...my doctor said to stop injections the first 3 days of period and continue again on the 4th day. also i am on 40 day program so im supposed to skip a day of injection every week correct? just getting personal experience questions answered..thanks
I did 2 - 40 day rounds and never skipped a shot...not once a week nor during TOM. I did however take 7 weeks off in between rounds just to be cautious about immunity since I wasn't skipping. However...I know a lot of people who have done 40-45 days straight and only taken 3 weeks off in between and they never did hit immunity so it's all up in the air.
I didn't want to skip the shots durning tom because then my rounds would have been LONG!! lol especially with TOM coming three times durning each round! And I was not worried about immunity because of all the people I know who have done this and never did skip a day and had no problems.
It's a personal choice...maybe try and skip a day...see how you feel. Try it the first couple days of your TOM and see if you feel a change. If you start to feel hungry or stall I would just keep doing the shots. You know your body best and you'll feel a change! I didn't want to feel the change :o) and I was fine...
