I had to take tablets, but just ground them down into powder x
The tablets I take are so tiny like what you take when on the pill, I can swallow them without water even and I’m terrible at taking tablets too! They often get caught in my throat. For the multivitamins ones, maybe try to get ones in a powder capsule so you could put it in juice… I have these ones
The rest of the meds depends on your protocol but mine is injections X 3 daily, (small) tablets x 3 orally and x 3 vaginally. Plus whatever pregnancy vitamins you choose. Hope that helps!
As above, depends on the clinic and protocol. I’ve had 2 cycles at 2 clinics both long and short and never had to take tablets. Always injections or pessaries.
Lots!
The only tablets I had was sleeping tablets for egg collection and the normal folic acid . The rest were patches, pessaries and injections.
Instead you take folic acid, the other forms our body absorb better Methil folate, Also the vitamin D if you take spray is better too. I working with medicine.
I would say it depends on the clinics protocols. I am on estrogen tablets three times per day for my embryo transfers but I do believe you can get estrogen patches but not heard of many people say they are on patches. You also need to take Folic Acid and they do recommend Vitamin D both tablets (both pretty small though). Otherwise for collection it was more injection based medications.
