They r oral med to take if is medicated FET...I had 20 eggs extracted. Potential for OHSS which I did have even when no ET. So doctor froze my 4 good eggs and to do FET this month. Does everyone in KK on FET have to take the hormone pills? From the leaflet or piece of paper they passed to me at KK, seems like everyone on artificial thaw cycle has to take the hormone pills...
Tsf, jia you, jia you!!!For those who have given me advises... Thank you... My husband and I decided to try with Dr Loh...
Bubbybear, 2nd cycle was a long cycle. Embarked it after I had a laproscopy to remove ovarian cyst... That resulted in my low Amh...
As much as I wan to keep trying, but the cost portion is quite an issue...
Mesara, i heard egg whites help to relieve ohss...i actuali took 2 egg whites, chicken essence n LRD tea during my 2ww..Should I start drinking h20 from today to prevent ohss...any other food to take after ER. Be for ER took 5 egg whites chicken essence almond nuts avacado and kiwi daily. Don't know if continue. The egg whites are the biggest challenge.
Very much depends on whether you are entitled to govt grant too. no govt grant for pte hospital.
Hi, Very much will depend on the medications u require. KKH will be cheaper overall.
OK thanks will do the same.Mesara, i heard egg whites help to relieve ohss...i actuali took 2 egg whites, chicken essence n LRD tea during my 2ww..
What did yr doc say. R u seeing private doc. My follicles on d5 were not even so I went to Dr loh at tmc and he gave me extra jab to make them grow evenly and they did tho kk said I was on max dosage pergoveris. Do u want to seek second opinion before converting cycle gal. Hope for the best. Praying for u.Mesara,
Not so good news. I just went for my 1st scan and there are only 2 follicles despite being on stimulation for 4 days. My initial count was 3, now it seems the third one is not growing at all. I am already at the highest dosage, don't think there is any other super drug to make more follicles for me.. Converting to IUI now.
Ladies, anyone here with similar experience to share?
Mesara, what was the extra jab given by dr Loh ?What did yr doc say. R u seeing private doc.

Thanks girl. Really need to mentally n physically prepare to embark on this journey.
I'm only taking the progynova. Does that mean I'm on medicated FET? How do doctors decide medicated or not? I wasn't there to collect the progynova myself and hence missed out some info...They r oral med to take if is medicated FET...
If u are taking Progynova before ET then yes that's medicated FET. Progynova is for building lining.I'm only taking the progynova. Does that mean I'm on medicated FET? How do doctors decide medicated or not? I wasn't there to collect the progynova myself and hence missed out some info...

Natural FET is without any meds, just a trigger jab I think.
Maybe different hosp term it differently?Dr recommended natural fet for me cos my AF cycle is regular.
I dont have a trigger jab leh, just start progesterone support 3 days before ET.
Did anyone have consultation with Dr Khong Chit Chong at KKH?
My first fresh was done by him and i bfp-ed. Very professional and is a man of very few words. Ocassionally will crack lame jokes. Nonetheless i chge to a pte gynae aft bfp. Have you gone for your consultation with him?
Maybe different hosp term it differently?
Nuh will classify this under medicated cos natural is totally drug-free before ET, only 1 trigger jab to make u O. Medicated no trigger jab cos no need O to take place, just build lining.

IVF failures are due to many factors: egg development, fertilization, embryo development, implantation, etc.The more I read post in this support group, I cannot seemed to find support but frustration. Especially, hoping to find success in just one strike seemed very impossible. Anyone know if those has conceive before naturally with life birth, now Going on IVF, do they stand better chance? Or is just like anyone depending our luck and body?
My lst appt with him is on 11/5. There r mix reviews on him so wanna find out more.
Sorry that u are frustrated. Maybe u can share what ur frustrated about? Actually this forum is a good place for queries u may have regarding ivf... but it may not make the ivf journey easier because every one has different reaction to ivf drugs and such. Conceived naturally before may not mean ivf success as well because our bodies change as we age. End of day, u do need to be comfortable abt what ur getting into and trust your Dr's recommendation for u.The more I read post in this support group, I cannot seemed to find support but frustration.

I'm sorry u feel this way.. If u don't mind, I'd share my personal experience.The more I read post in this support group, I cannot seemed to find support but frustration.

Initially I had also had false hopes on ivf since i was able to bfp first iui, ivf will be successful at one try. But this forum helps me with so much info n be realistic. My first ivf failed, but I was able to pick up very quickly n move on learning it's a journey with trials n error.I'm sorry u feel this way.. If u don't mind, I'd share my personal experience.
I joined this forum the day after I failed my 1st ivf. Beforehand I didn't know abt this forum. I was soooo devastated that I really wanted to find people who understand what I'm going thru.
Yes the thing I 1st noticed in this forum is that ivf takes multiple tries & it's v disappointing to learn that. But I eventually felt glad to know what reality is.
I had gone into ivf with overly high false hopes & that actually crushed me. I cried during BT & the ivf nurse nicely told me, when I had decided to embark on this journey, I should be prepared for whatever outcome.
This forum taught me facts & reality. But the main thing I learnt is still perseverance. After chatting & reading abt other sisters' experience, I was very encouraged cos many who encouraged me had actually gone thru even much more.
I tidied my feelings & embarked on my 2nd frozen attempt with a more prepared & realistic mentality. I'm very lucky to bfp that round & I have the sisters in here to thank for bringing me thru my journey

I had bleeding mid cycle when taking epo... no experience with dhea. All I know is when starting new supplements:: is possible that it may affect ur cycle initially... bleeding... longer or shorter cycles... but do seek dr advice if ur bleeding is heavy or ur very concernedHello sistas, juz wondering if anyone encounter unusual bleeding on day 10th while taking dhea or any supplement? I started encountering the above after taking supplement to prepare for my 3rd cycle. Any advice or experience sharing is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Could it be implantation spotting?I had bleeding mid cycle when taking epo... no experience with dhea.

Hi hi!Hi all, self intro myself a bit. I'm turning 30 this yr and my hub is turning 31. We have been ttc for a year but no news went for check up and hub is diagnosed with low morphology. So far i'm fine. We decided to go to polyclinic for referral to Kkh. I'm kinda confuse with iui, ivf etc. Pardon me as this thread is really too long to scroll back and read. Will be glad if anyone could explain to me the difference and the charges. Thanks! Hub & me are worried abt the charges as we are getting our new bto next wk. Btw both hub & me are singaporean. I got quite upset whenever my menses come. Hub & my r/s gone a bit bad but now we are ok. Initially my hub is very against ivf as he feels that it's not natural but been taking proxeed plus from gynae also useless and just started seeing tcm at clementi. Dunno whether it helps or not or just giving ourselves a faith of hope that tcm help.
Thanks chloe. May i ask what epo is? I was wondering if the culprit is dhea or royal jelly. From net, bleeding is not shown as a side effects for dhea while for royal jelly it is.. but I had tried taking royal jelly before as a single supplment (though different brand) way before to my 2nd cycle and no issue.I had bleeding mid cycle when taking epo... no experience with dhea.

I'm 32 and hubby is 34. Same low morphology. Did IUI twice in a private clinic before gg to kk for IVF. Hubby wants the kids more than me... Tried tcm medication for half a year and expensive too! So might as well go to IVF. That was what I thought.Hi all, self intro myself a bit. I'm turning 30 this yr and my hub is turning 31.

Interestingly my first time knowing blastocyst was at this forum & I have raised it with Dr THH on Fri. He feels it's a viable option for women reaching 40 & I will be trying that. Also much easier for me to understand endo scratch, which I am going for next month.
Thanks so much ladies.
