There is so much going on here, it has been hard for me to keep up!

Michele : just wanted to add that I was on 20mg of Lupron from the go this cycle, as my RE was trying to really surpress then really push my ovaries. It helped. I never did 10mg of Lupron the first time, so not sure how much worse ...

rayofsunshine- welcome to the board. Hope you find a lot of hope and wisdom here. My DH (to-be!) also has low motility due to a vasectomy reversal. We did ICSI both times and were able to get enough good embryos (2-3) to transfer. No BFP for me yet, but we are still hopeful. Good luck on your ...

beth- I am so sorry to hear about your BFN, especially after the initial tests. Do something to thank your body and mind for working so hard this time and keep up the PMA for the next cycle. Maybe I will see you again in Oct/Nov. HUGSS!!!

lw, thanks for the welcome!

I am still getting the hang of all of these acronyms, my first time posting on a board. Anyway, I said this was an FTE, but actually it was a new stim cycle, new embryos. We didn't have enough to freeze from Cycle 1 or 2, so if this one doesn't work, we'll have to start ...

Hi Everyone,

A good friend who had a successful IVF and beautiful 8 mos old son referred me to this site. I just completed my first IVF/ICSI cycle, with negative results last Thurs. We were so hopeful that it would work out, as all my hormone levels seem "normal", but my fiance has a lower sperm ...
