Hi hopeful13, may I ask why is your 3rd cycle the last? Is it because of cofunding? Or any other reasons?
Hi sonique, yes you are right. I am using the co-funding as a way to tell myself when to stop. My husband is not young anymore (late 40s) and I am in mid 30s. Gotta stop trying at some point in time. If husband is younger, probably I will still try a few more rounds.
Another reason is, I am not sure if the jabs are giving me problem. Prior to 2nd ivf, I found out I had numerous breast lumps & doc say the jabs may or may not cause these problem. But my latest scan showed an increase in lumps and so I am now on close monitoring by my breast doc.
But ivf may not be the cause since there are numerous reason for breast lumps & the dreaded cancer. However, I will still advise all ladies to regularly self examine your breasts. And my breast doc told me dun let the lumps stop me from doing what I want. She use taking airplane as an analogy. When an airplane crashed, it does not mean that you should stop flying altogether. Life still goes on.
But for me this will be my last fresh and use up my frozen embryo. Whatever happens after that I will just accept it as it is.
