Need Advise?

Hi this is first time, i am in any group. I am  trying to get pregnant for 7 years and  all the doctors told us, it is male fertility. So three years ago we did two round of failed iui. Then in 09/16 we did our first IVF. And i had one fertilized egg out of 4 and did transfer on day 3 but IVF failed because of implementation. We then started 2nd IVF on April 2017 but only grow one follicles and cycle got cancel, then i started 3rd cycle on may 2017 with lupron but cancel again because of small follicles. I am going to start another cycle in june 21. I am very worried, about what is going on with my body and i all my test in these 7 years were normall and never had any infertility problem but i do not know why my body is not responding to the medicine. So worried . I do not know, i should start another cycle or stop it to give my body rest. I am also taking prenatal, Coq10, DHEA and vitamin D for last several months to give my body extra boost.I am 33 years old husband is 37 year. Any advise will be helpful.

The Drs have nothing to tell you in regards to why it isn't working?

Transfer Day 😊

So my transfer is scheduled for Friday! When they called yesterday we had 3 embryos. I am praying they continue to grow because we want to put 2 in. Fingers and toes crossed!! 🙏🏻

ivf starting

Hi my husband and I have been trying since June of 2015. January 2016 af was late went in for beta and negative so set up an appt with obgyn. Discovered I had pcos so started metformin. Fast forward to April first round of Clomid did 3 more rounds total of 4 failed rounds with obgyn. Made and appt with an re to find out I had 4 large cysts so 2 months of bcp for me. Then October comes do 100 mg of Clomid with trigger. Nothing. U/s and 4 more cysts so surgery here I come. 2 months of bcp and surgery. To find out at my post op u/s there's already a cyst forming. We do 2 more rounds of Clomid and trigger with double iui and negatives all around and terrible periods. So today I started the process for ivf (suggested by my re) I had my blood work done. Wednesday I go for the test with he camera:/ and husband goes for SA and bloods. The 7th of march consalt to discuss labs and timelines and march 15 my shot training. It's all happening so fast and it's a lot to keep straight. How did you ladies keep everything straight and organized? Sorry for the long post any help/suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!!

I am so sorry for what you've gone through so far.  Infertility has a special way of kicking you in the ass.  IVF is tough but totally doable. I would suggest planning nothing during your round of IVF besides work.  The nurses and doctors really walk you through everything but I did buy "the IVF journal" online so I could track when I took what shots and to record # of embryos and such. Good luck!

Jennifer- how is your cycle progressing?? 

Scanty period before first ever IVF cycle

Ladies I'm freaking out,Can you start IVF is you have had the lighter period ever! To the point where you wear a pad and there's nothing on it? I feel cramping for 2 days now but only see blood when I wipe at the bathroom. This is not normal for me.I have pcos since my teens, and had long cycles and 6/7day periods now in the last tear I have seen them drop to 4-3 days light & now to this - zero flow???I also was diagnosed hypothyroid in 2014.. I'm so worried this will screw up IVF.. I'm scared it's something horns only sinister going on like perimenopause - I'm 33 😬Hope some out there can share some experiences it advice with me ??Thank you so very much for reading and commenting I am totally scared right now

Sorry I'm just seeing this now. I've never had a light period like that ever. I have had it skip a month twice in the last few years. My drs isn't seen concerned. Did you ever call your dr and ask? Did the period get heavier?

Neighborhood health ivf

My doctors put in my IVF authorization March 10, and it supposed to take 14 business days for them to approve it so by the 14th business day I called and they said there was missing paperwork, so I called my doctor and let them know so they put it in on April 8, and I still have no approval it's been almost 2 months, has this happened to anybody else....

Anyone still active in this group?

I had to take some time away after last years disappointing failed Ivf and having so many people around me get pregnant without issue. Now I'm trying to get back in the mindset of trying Ivf again this summer. What is everyone else up to?

In need of some left over ivf meds

I am still looking for some left over ivf meds.  My body did not respond to this cycle so they are upping my meds and adding some. My insurance does not cover anything. I am looking for Lupron all together I need 8mg, gonal -f I need 10000iu, cetritode I need 6- 0.25 mg shots, menopur 6-75mg-150 mg. I need hcg 1500iu, crinone, and prometrium.  Please anyone that can help me and have any left over they would donate it would be the greatest blessing ever. I live in sand springs Oklahoma. I would cover any shipping costs. Thanks again

Left over ivf meds

I have been waiting 10 years to be able to go through this cycle. I was told my meds would be included in what I have already paid and they are not. I have been so excited and affraid I am going to have to give up.  The meds are so expensive. I was wondering if anyone had any left over gonal f and/or cetritode left over they would like to donate

Got a question... When you say that you will be having ivf#3 does that meant you paid for 3 ivf's? $15k x 3 times?!?!?! $45k????

February/march

Preparing for transfer

Just got the results back from genetic testing. We have one perfect embryo. I am desperate for advice on how to prepare for transfer. What people did or ate, anything really!? I have had 2 unsuccessful transfers and 1 that ended in m/c. This is the first time we did PGS testing though. Thanks ladies ❤️

ICSI Second Cycle Worry

Hi, me and my husband have been trying for a baby for over 2 years, we both have medical things wrong and have had two miscarriages. My first cycle of ICSI was fine, but had a bad experince on egg retrieval and unfortunately was unsuccessful. Weve spoken to the consultant about whats going to be done differently this time round, but Im still generally feeling anxious about our second cycle. Any words of wisdom?

Goodness me we've been through a lot together. Thank you for being such a support. I'd love to hear more about what you guys are up to, and it doesn't need to be specifically about TTC, just how are you?

Hey gals, I've triggered! So Thursday morning at 7am is the pickup 😬

Goodbye 2015

You guys know way better than pretty much anyone in my life (other than my husband) how ridiculously awful 2015 has been. There's only about ten more hours of this year (here in Australia), and I will be letting my hair down, and celebrating this jerk of a year finally going away. May 2015 be the best year of all of our lives!! Thank you all for being such a support through all downs, through the up, and again through the downs. I appreciate you all more than words can say Xxx

I like in the uk and went to north Cyprus as prices were to high at home especially when you add medicine to the cost X I worked out cheaper including a hotel for 2 weeks and flights
