Hi all I am on my 9th attempt (if you include abandoned attempts which my clinic does) and am hoping for some encouragement. I have heard of so few women who carry on after a few negatives that i feel like I'm on my own here. I'm downregging for a medicated FET at the moment and just wanted some enc...

Hi

my clinic makes us do a HPT two weeks after ET for both fresh and frozen. I have always been very good and not been tempted to test early but i know it's hard.

good luck!

Hi everyone many thanks for your replies and suggestions. I did an HPT last week in case a supersperm had managed to leap the divide between the cut tubes in my dh but of course it was -ive. I called my clinic this morning and they said that they won't let me take anything to bring on my period as w...

Hi everyone haven't posted for ages. We are waiting to have another attempt with our 2 frosties and I'm waiting for my period to arrive so we can get going but I'm on day 60!! any tips for bringing on a period (normally the last thing we want, I know). So far I've tried Agnus Casta (Chasteberry), ho...

Hi really hope this is your turn, sounds like you've been waiting a long time like so many of us on here. i'm preparing for my 9th attempt. Having lost 10 frosties we were taking to blasto stage last time, I am having a natural cycle as the chances of the last 2 frosties surviving are slim and i can...

Hi i'm sure that different clinics have different rules but i had to wait for 2 months after mine. It depends what you have done. I had some surgery for a few things they found while they were having a look. If they don't find anything wrong with you, you may be able to try quicker. good luck! Natal...

Hi

I've never heard of this but am bumping this back up to the top in case anyone has any info - I'm on the look out for any more tests or new ideas that might work for me!

Hi all thanks so much for your replies, they are helping me sort things out in my head. I don't think I'm ready to give up yet unless the consultant tells me i'm wasting my time but I'm not really sure what to do next. I've stopped crying anyway which is something but i'm sure it'll start again soon...

Hi All Not posted for a while but find myself turning back to you all again as you are always a help. My 8th attempt was just abandoned as we were taking 10 thawed embies to blastocyst stage and none of them made it. (6 weeks of drugs for nothing and yet more heartache). We've only got 2 frosties le...

many thanks for your replies ladies, i feel a bit better informed now and of course i will ask my clinic at my baseline scan exactly what i'll be doing.

good luck to everyone!

Hi we are preparing for our 8th attempt and have decided to let 5 of our frozen embryos be thawed and left for 5 days to go to blastocyst stage before embryo transfer. when i've had FET in the past, ET day has always been day 18. For blastocyst transfer, will they keep me on the oestrogen and do the...

Hi many thanks for your reply. i had an NKC biopsy which actually took tissue from my uterus. this was more accurate than a blood test and the results came back as normal so we ruled that out but thanks for suggesting something anyway, i appreciate it! i'm seeing the consultant in a couple of weeks ...

Hi my dh had Surgical Sperm Retrieval. The sperm cannot swim anywhere, it just "twitches". this means that you have to have ICSI where they inject the sperm right into the egg instead of IVF where they put the sperm and egg in the same petri dish and let the sperm swim to and penetrate the egg. Plea...

Hi what country are you in? are you in the UK? Did your dh have the ope where they try and suction it through an incision or did he have the biopsy where they cut out small sections? My dh had SSR at Liverpool Women's Hospital in the UK and his consultant has a 100% success rate - he has never not g...

Some of you might know me as i have been on this forum for some time now. sorry if this is a bit rambling. I have to have ivf becuase my dh had a vasectomy during his first marriage. i've had 3 fresh icsi attempts and 4 FETs. after getting my latest negative yesterday and finding out that a good fri...
