thanks for repsonse!

I recently found out that my doctor did not test all of my testosterone levels before preforming 3 IVFs on me despite my history of high free testosterone levels since I was 16 years old and treatment of this condition since then too.

So - my question is basic - do high levels of Testosterone ...

Hi Justine -
Thanks for your feedback. I was never advised this...interesting. I guess this means you did not cut dairy from your diet generally either. I was advised to cut dairy entirely (almost) and red meat and caffeine and alcohol of course. After our last IVF was not successful, I have been ...

Good luck to you - for me we had no success this time.

Tris -
Thanks for getting back to me with your advise...

Justine -
Thanks for your tips. Interesting about the milk - my accupuncturist told me to cut dairy - so I had cut dairy, red meat and caffeine forever. I've been eating drinking everything (except alcohol) since getting results.

Another woman mentioned that she too was drinking milk - odd, given ...

Cate and others -
I just got a BFN after 3rd IVF with ICSi despite my efforts to eat healthy etc. Please let me know if you have any tips or if you've done anything different when successful.

Thanks,

Tris and others,
I just got my 3rd BFN with ICSI - any thoughts - anything you did different emotionally, physically or with diet since my journey continues.

Did you get 2nd opionion? I am in DC area and like my doc a lot, but pretty discouraged given my discipline and cutting back my diet so to ...

Hey J -
Thanks for sharing with me your thoughts and experiene - best to you!

I have had IVF with ICSI 3x now

2nd - july 07 - Chemical pregnancy - had started accupuncture and revised diet, vitamins...
3rd - Sept 07 - BPN - despite even further ...

Hi Candid -
Thx - btw, what did you do to prepare for this...did you give up caffeine entirely, dairy or red meat. Just curious given my lack of success despite my efforts to be as prepared as possible.
Thank,

Mine was actually negative today. Hard to make sense of it honestly....I did so much trying to make everything right...

What is your situation again?

You are totally right though - it is not in our hands, but is in God's hands. I need to keep focused on that and trust in His plan for me/us.

Yes, I know you are right - just so sad and tough time now...Praying that some day I too will be blessed with gift of conception.

Please keep me posted on your news - praying for a miracle for you!!!

Christie,
My results were BPN - pretty disappointing to say the least.... Not sure what do or how to proceed. This was my 3rd round of IVF and it's tough to understand....I wish you the best with your test and pray that you have a BPP!
