Very sadly, at 5 weeks today, I’ve had an early MC and am no longer pregnant. While very sad, early MC is so common and I’m truly grateful to have got pregnant in the first place after 4 years of trying and 2 years of fertility treatment. If I’ve got pregnant once, it can happen again!! I just wanted to say thank...
Hello all My story is that I have PCOS, we were due to start our fertility treatment in October but we have fallen on naturally. We've been trying for 5 years without any luck. It's been an emotional roll coaster. I found out I was pregnant last week it's causing me lot of anxiety about if I am going to stay pr...
“It's yours.” basically, insinuating I can do what I want with the rest of my 6000 dollar a worth of meds. I'm curious to know if anyone is familiar with the medicines that they give you. Maybe a nurse or doctor. Thanks
“that's yours” basically Insulating, I can use it on my own—cant return the damn things. The belated transfer is because the meds skyrocketed my progesterone levels, which are usually fine. I'm contemplating using a much lower dose of the Follistim on my own time and, perhaps, the Ovadril. What do you guys think? Is...
I started my stims on Monday. Today is day 4. I am not feeling any uneasiness, bloating etc so far. Definitely feels great not to have any, but is this normal? I'm starting to worry if the meds are working on my body.
Good morning ladies! I'm about halfway through my stem cycle and hoping for egg retrieval in six days. Can you please share what symptoms you had from the medication's?

Hello! I use Mira to track my LH and estrogen. Does anyone else use this? I am on round 1 of 5 mg letrozole, today is cd 16. I got scanned Monday of this week and my doctor confirmed I had one 14mm follicle growing, and told me to have lots of sex over the next couple days. I saw my estrogen rising and expected a L...
Hello, My husband and I have not been fortunate with our IVF cycles. We have had 3 failed ones and in only one cycle did we have one mature embryo that didn't implant. I feel a bit frustrated with my current clinic because I feel they are not on top of things and not really individualising my treatment. I would li...
