Hi
I would also suggest you but 2 cycles for peace of mind. In my country we don't get an option for discounts or package deals which I think it's unfair. One cycle incuding meds & blood work is going to cost around USD 8K but would bless every single penny if God willing it will be successful ...

Hi,
My doctor strated the IVF treatment (supression) just after AF. I was day 4 or 5 in the cycle. What happened was that when the estradiol went down, I had another AF (2 AFs during the same month). So I guess every doctor has his own way how to tackle this. I suggest you discuss it with him.

Best ...

Hi Leamount,
How are you doing? Have you managed to continue sleeping properly? I can't help but waking up an hour or so earlier than I used to. My side/back would start hurting (dull pain) and have to get up of bed.

Have you got any strange(r) symptoms? Mine have someone decreased :-(..Hope this ...

Hi,
First of all good luck & sticky baby dust to all.

I have my beta test on Friday, 10 days post a 2-day transfer which I think is too early. I was wondering how long will it take for the lab to issue the result and if there is a chance that the result would be inconclusive. I am really scared but ...

Hi Leamount,
Glad you are having a good night sleep. It is very important that you have enough rest. Walking (not brisk walking) should be fine but stop as soon as you feel tired. Your body will tell you when you reached your limit and it is important that you obey immediately. Is it possible that ...

Hello,

This is my first IVF and ICSI (and hopefully the last). My transfer was on 03 Nov (2-day embryo qty 2). We have decided to just inform our families and close friends about it. It's not easy, I know and it was really stressful even due to the fact that during my treatment I was having a bad ...

Hi there,
Don't give up. Like you, I had high Prolactin level and have both tubes blocked. Prolactin is a natural contraceptive, which is normally released by the body during lactation period, so you have to control it before starting the IVF treatment. That's what my doctor did at least. I was put ...

Hi,

I would first of all check if the second IVF procedure was tackled in the same way as the firs tone or if any alterations to correct anything which might have failed during the fiirst IVF were intorduced. Then ask if ICSI was performed or not.

In my opinion to have 12 good eggs retrieved and ...

Hi,
In my country we use Arvekap but I think it's the same thing under a different brand name (but please do check). Arvekap comes with the large needle only which is used to mix the powder to the liquid. You should use a thinner needle to inject (not too thin coz the liquid is a bit tick & will not ...
