Delestrogen for Fertility Hormonal Support

Delestrogen, a form of estradiol valerate, is integral in fertility treatments, particularly during the embryo transfer phase of the IVF cycle, to prepare the endometrial lining for implantation.

This medication, administered via intramuscular (IM) injections, is typically used in conjunction with daily Progesterone in Oil (PIO) injections. Delestrogen is usually administered every three days, continuing until the 10th to 12th week of pregnancy, depending on the individual prescribed fertility treatment plan.

Delestrogen Administration and Monitoring:

Delestrogen is typically administered in the weeks leading up to an embryo transfer and may continue into the early stages of pregnancy as prescribed by a fertility specialist. Administered through deep intramuscular injections typically in the buttocks, CNS nurses trained through the first official CNS Home Fertility Nurse Training Program™ in the United States, administer Delestrogen with expert precision. CNS Storks employ the correct techniques to inject the medication safely, avoiding critical structures such as blood vessels and the sciatic nerve. This ensures not only the efficacy of the medication but also maximizes client comfort, particularly when Delestrogen and PIO injections coincide on the same day.

Delestrogen Common Side Effects:

Common side effects associated with Delestrogen injections include:

  • Pain or irritation at the injection site

  • Breast tenderness

  • Nausea and bloating

  • Mood swings

Delestrogen Fun Fact: Delestrogen is not only pivotal in fertility treatments but is also widely used to manage symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes and osteoporosis in menopausal women, showcasing its versatility in hormone therapy.

At Childress Nursing Services (CNS), our specialized home fertility nurses ensure that Delestrogen is administered accurately, adhering strictly to the prescribed schedule to optimize the uterine environment for embryo implantation. From your first CNS nurse visit, using CNS' Embryo Whisperer embryo transfer cycle workbook (industry’s 1st home fertility nurse treatment tracker workbook), our clients are taught and instructed on how to both prevent and manage side effects of more long-term injections, such as Delestrogen.
