I use a 1 inch needle but I'm 100 lbs so it goes into my muscle. Progesterone can change daily so even though your number was high then, doesn't mean it will stay high. . .but they probably will b/c you had an egg retrieval so your body is making progesterone. .
have someone give you the shot so ...

HI there

I just wanted to say that I also lost twins at 20 weeks b/c of incompetent cervix. I also do IVF to get pregnant so it was even more devastating. . . I just wanted to ask you if you were diagnosed with IC?? I got a TAC (trans abdominal cerclage) instead of a TVC and I am so happy that I ...

thank you so much for all of the information. I was pregnant at the same time as you b/c I have a 6 month old girl, who I conceived through IVF. I am considering doing the clinical trial in NJ b/c I've already paid well over $20,000 out of pocket during the last 4 years of trying. My health ...

thanks so much for getting back to me. . . can you tell me about the IVF hospital and the city. Does the city seem safe?? did you ever stay over night? do you know if there are hotels near by. Is it located right off of the turnpike or is it hard to find? did you get stuck in traffic often ...

does anyone live in or near Hasbrouck Heights NJ?? there is an IVF Clinical trial there and I'm thinking about traveling for it. . .I'd like to get some info on the city, hospital, etc. Please contact me if you have some info.
thanks so much

can I take provera 10mg 2 x a day for 5 days instead of 1 x a day for 10 days to induce a period??

I just got a positive pg test last Monday. I was 10 days past 5 dt and my beta was 280 and my progesterone was 180. I was taking 1cc of PIO but my dr said that I could stop b/c my body is producing enough progesterone on its own. I am scared to stop b/c I've had past miscarriages and an early loss ...

ghost- thanks for your opinion. could you elaborate as to why you would choose RSC; I'm just curious. that's the way I was leaning anyways.

ghost- which clinic should I go with?
Boston IVF or REproductive Science Center??

thanks carrie

thanks for replying. How do I get their stats on the sarts website?

I've been a patient of Boston IVF but I'm thinking about switching. . . any opinions? which one has better stats?

thanks carrie

after having 4 failed FET's after a successful fresh transfer, I just found out they were frozen on day 6. I'm disappointed b/c from what I've read if it takes embryos 6 days to reach blast instead of 5, then they aren't very good. Is this true? I am so mad that I did 4 transfers and spent $10,000 ...

I've been in your exact same situation. I also lost my twins at 20 weeks b/c of IC. I've since had a Trans Abdominal Cerclage (permanent stitch) The first cycle after my loss I transferred one Frozen embryo. It didn't work. Then I transfered 2, 1 stuck, but I miscarried at 8 weeks. then I ...
