Hi all,
I'm new to this forum. Hopefully by sharing my dilemmas I get to learn something from you who have experienced something similar. I'm turning 38 soon in another month and married for 5 years and finally we decided to go for IVF.
I just came back from seeing Dr Loh, TMC and had my 3rd scanned after undergo the following procedure:
On day 2 menses:
1st scan: detected 3 follies. Given 3 days gonal f + pergo and 1 day gonal f + orga
2nd scan: from the existing 3 follies, only size increased but no new follies. Given another 2 days of gonal f + orga
3rd scan: The same 3 follies grown bigger and 1 in odd shape
Dr say my chances pretty slim especially we are doing ICSI as my hubby sperm is low motility. I'm not sure if i should continue or stop here. If continue, I will have an extraction this sat.
Meanwhile I hv 2 fibroids; 1 big almost reaching the max size and 1 small. Although both does not affect anything. And i think i have some build up scar tissues from my perforated appendix few years ago. I'm thinking maybe I should remove the fibroids and clear up the scar tissues and start a fresh IVF cycle to increase my follies quantity and quality.
Any thoughts?
