Late taking IVF meds

Hiya, I’m currently on my second round of IVF after a failed first round. I’m taking meriofert in the evenings. Tonight, I am out for a meal and am worrying that I’m going to be late doing my injection. I usually inject at 10pm, does anyone know if it would matter if I inject 30-60 mins later than usual?

Hi I would think that taking it 30-60 mins late wouldn’t have much of an impact, however I would just take it with you and do it in the toilets. I did injections in the toilets at Harry Potter studios when I was doing ivf 😂 Good luck for this round!!

@Kelly amazing 🤣 I did one of my injections last time in an airport toilet 😂 it’s only as it takes a while to prep the meriofert and it’s a big meal with all my partners family and they don’t know we’ve started our second round. They’ll just have to think I’m taking a long time in the toilet 🤣

I know it’s a pain! You could say you need to leave by whatever time to get you home on time otherwise? I can’t imagine still being in a restaurant at 10pm but we do eat really early like old people! 😂😂😂

@Kelly I’m hoping we’ll be home by 10 or at least left the restaurant by then, but it’s my partners brothers 30th and we have a private room and we’re giving them a lift so can’t leave early 🤣 im usually in bed asleep by 10:30 😂 I’m probably worrying for nothing and it will all be fine 😂

@Laura I’m sure it’ll all be fine! IVF makes you second guess and worry about everything

@Kelly thank you for helping to reassure me 🤣🥰

@Laura You’re super welcome 😊

I wasn’t on this medication but was told don’t worry if it was an hour ish late just the trigger was the main one to get on Time x

@Abbi amazing thank you! Yeah it’s not the trigger so hopefully won’t be a problem if it is slightly late 🤞🏼 x

Only medication that needs to be exact timing wise is the trigger. Anything else you can have 1hr leeway without any issue and even a forgotten dose (rarely!) without any issue. So definitely don’t worry about a 30-60min delay x

@Selina thank you! Yeah I ended up taking it about an hour later than usual, so I’m glad it won’t make a difference! X
