Hi everyone! Please, help me understand

Post by Melru »

Hi, I am new to both IVf and this forum.
Spent some hours today reading the posts and couldn't understand most of them... Is there a special language one has to learn to communicate here? What are all those abbreviations? Is there a list of them so I can look it up?
Please, help!

You can go to General Forum / Abbreviation Definitions? I just went to that thread and there are a lot of posts.

Wow go to page 3 of where I mentioned above. There is a super long list of abbreviations. This will definitely be helpful!
