IVF protocols

I know there are several different protocols for IVF and medications.  Any ideas of why my re dosent have me use Lupron like many others do? I will see him probably next week but was wondering in the meantime.  I have endometriosis and pcos, 37 yrs old and never pregnant.  Thank you in advance for any comments or suggestions you may have.

I respond extremely well without Lupron but was just wondering if it has something to do with pcod. Thank you both for your input :)

I know some women do not respond well while on Lupron but do really well w/o.  I am about to start ivf and will be doing Lupron.  Wish I could try w/o it.  Lupron is not a stimulant, it just suppresses ovulation.
Good luck to you!

Some doctors like working with your natural cycle, they feel your body is more accepting that way, while other docs like to control your cycle, and get your body right where they want it for transfer.  Hope this helps??
