One agreed set of instructions
Stimulation and transfer preparation are individualized. The medication and monitoring plan may change as the doctor reviews ultrasound and hormone findings. Another patient’s dose or timing is therefore not a substitute for the instructions given for your cycle.
If part of care takes place locally before travel, tell both clinicians where treatment will continue. The hospital’s travel guidance emphasizes communication between the treating teams and avoiding a mixture of different medication plans.
Keep the records together
Scroll across to view all columns.
| Record | Information to keep | Purpose of sharing |
|---|---|---|
| Medication instructions | Medication name, prescribed dose, dates and injection time. | Allow the treating team to review what has been prescribed and taken. |
| Ultrasound | The complete dated monitoring report. | Review follicle development or endometrial preparation in sequence. |
| Blood tests | Collection date, result, units and laboratory ranges. | Place the hormone findings on the correct treatment timeline. |
| Trigger and retrieval | The agreed trigger time and the instructions for the retrieval appointment. | Coordinate the final maturity and procedure schedule. |
| After transfer | Prescribed support and the agreed pregnancy-test or review dates. | Continue the plan and share follow-up reports after travel. |
Who gives the injections?
The nursing team can administer injections during treatment at the hospital. Some patients may administer them themselves, or receive help from a partner, after training. Confirm the medication and administration arrangements before the cycle starts.
If your local clinician helps with monitoring or medication, ensure that the current instructions and the reports reach the INCITA team before the next treatment decision.
If a dose or injection time was missed
Contact the treating medical or nursing team promptly. Explain the medication, prescribed dose, amount actually taken and the time involved. Obtain instructions for the specific event rather than taking another patient’s advice or adjusting the dose independently.
Trigger timing is closely linked to egg retrieval. If it was missed, late or given at a different time, contact the team immediately with the exact information. This page does not prescribe a replacement dose or a general catch-up schedule.
Before travelling or going home
Confirm which monitoring is needed next, who will review it and how to send the complete report. Keep the instructions available alongside the hospital contact details.
After transfer, follow the agreed plan for medication support, pregnancy testing and any repeat tests or ultrasound. A single blood result does not replace further assessment. Read about early pregnancy follow-up and the treatment journey.
