Medication emergencies do happen. They can happen to you at any point. Perhaps you have broken an ampule of your medications. Maybe your doctor has increased or changed your medications, and it is late at night and you are stuck without enough!

Never hesitate to call the doctor on call to ask what to do. Your fertility clinic may have an emergency kit of medications on hand that they can get to you immediately.

Be sure to ask when choosing your fertility clinic as to what their policy is on medication emergencies. There may be a specific coordinator to call, or you may just call the line for regular emergencies. Do not despair if you find yourself in this situation.

As you can see, there are many medications that you may encounter in your treatment of your infertility. The myriad terms can seem like a world of confusing jargon. Be sure to ask as many questions as you can, until you feel comfortable. Do not be concerned if your particular protocol does not match someone else's protocol as each person and cycle is different.
