Hi, I believe novarel is hcg? Right? If so I believe one shot per cycle is all you need. I'm no expert, but with all my iui's and ivf it only took one.
Good luck and SSBD

I meant how many cycles? I had one last month and one the month before. But I just did not know if it takes a few months to really set in?
It's different for everyone. I conceived my first try with Clomid and hcg trigger (I don't know what one is used, my RE does it at her office), but that ended in blighted ovum. I'm still waiting to see what happens with this go-round, as I had my shot 9 days ago and am still waiting to test (though I have tested enough to know that it's out of my system already). The shot helps force ovulation, and some women get pregnant with a healthy baby the first time, and some women have to move to the next step.
