Birth Control for 5-6 weeks?

I promise I am coming with a more detailed update soon, but had a quick question for anyone who has done IVF.

Is 5-6 weeks of birth control beforehand normal? I knew I would be taking birth control, but I had no idea it was going to be for that long. I have never gotten more than two follicles with Clomid and I am worried that 5-6 weeks of birth control and then Lupron is going to over-suppress me. I didn't say anything about it on the phone to the nurse because I didn't want to insinuate that she didn't know what she was talking about - but since I have moderate endo and an AMH on the lower side I am worried that is just too long.

  1. I had only 28 days of BC on both of my IVF's Maybe they work in cycles? wanting to regulate everyone to cycle at the same time?
