I registered for this forum purely to answer your question. I can't tell you what your decision should be, only that I had my 1st IVF cycle at this clinic and was very unimpressed. They don't monitor with blood tests; they didn't even scan me until my 9th day of injections; they don't individualise treatment on a day by day basis. They put me in hospital with severe OHSS and I later miscarried. This was entirely preventable. Then, they wrote and told us that their embryo freezer machine had been malfunctioning and our frozen embryos were therefore dead and unusable. I'd go to one of the best London clinics, such as they ARGC or UCH; it's worth the trouble and the travel. If I'd known what I do now, I wouldn't bother to walk through BACC's doors. And, if you're over 38, their success rates are terrible (about 4% if you do the maths from the last HFEA guide). Best of luck to you. Lori

Thanks for replying Lori and sorry to hear you had such a crappy time at BACC. My boss went there and thought they were pretty good but I am only in the referral stage for there at the mo so will go for first appointment and see what I think. I have had IVF before but not in UK, hence the reason I wanted to gather info. Hope you are getting somewhere with your treament now. Regards Lisa (Loonpants)
