''Singapore does not allow the use of PGD to choose a baby’s gender. It is allowed for the screening of genetic diseases only when a doctor determines that there are medical reasons to do so, said a Health Ministry (MOH) spokesman.

For example, PGD can be done for patients who are at high risk of diseases such as Alpha thalassemia, haemophilia A, Fragile X syndrome, spinal muscular atrophy, myotonic dystrophy and Huntington’s Disease, according to Dr Yu Su Ling, director of the Centre for Assisted Reproduction at the Singapore General Hospital (SGH).''

So it seems like you hv to undergo more tests and find out if either you or your hb hv any underlaying diseases or not 1st then get referral to do the test. Else they don't usually do it in singapore.. and i think this procedure is ex too..dunno covered by medisave not also..you might hv to ask your ivf doc for more info

Oh i think I was referring to PGD pre implantation genetic diagnostic testing. Like Doing Chromosomal Testing On The Embryos Before Transferring?

mbe u shld c another ivf dr. There shld have way to help u n we shld find dr that we comfortable w...

yes hv booked NUH..but might consider pte too also my hb said yesterday to me

 

[Lambi]

yup it is normal for dh to feel sad but dh usually will try to keep strong for us.
as for bath my mum said ok to bathe w warm water as usually.
we need to mini confinement n eat confinement food as well.
but if possible do went for test b4 ttc. Like my case aft 2 mc I told dh we need to do all the available test hope can find out root cause den only from there I knew that my antibody was in the high side for pregnancy for normal life I'm fine therefore once tested positive I will have to take streiods n call clinic to arrange for ivig. Hopefully everything will ne under control as the 2 mc almost killed me.

I hope you'll be 3rd time lucky the next time...as now you know yours is need ivig..can claim medisave not did you ask?

 

[Lambi]

sok koon..i just scrolled and read abt your previous question on chromosome testing/karotyping? I did too here when we have so many chemical pregnancies and early mc ..i personally feel it is just to make you rest your mind..cos i understand after mc we keep thinking..is it this..is it that? Maybe this maybe that..so i think if you don't mind the costs..(yes it is very ex) can try the test with a pte fertility doc, cos faster results..

Hi chrisl, my gynea is not recommending us to do the chromosomes test yet but he insisted I take the x-ray and blood test first to check. If there is any other underlying problems, then perhaps he will recommend. I am having a bit if mixed feelings about doing chromosomes tests also.

Yah, I guess my hubby will follow what the gynea suggests. So perhaps we will go with the flow now. Waiting for next menses in July, then can take x-ray and blood test and see how. Can't help but to feel worried these few weeks and also can't stop thinking about the worst scenario that can happen (e.g. cannot conceive anymore). Also told my hubby not to go for x-ray or blood test with me in July. Very scared to send bad news to him again and see his disappointed look. Sorry ladies, feeling really lost, don't know how to think positive these few weeks.

I understand that. When waiting for hub chromosomes test I also v worried but nv ask hub how is his feeling in order not to spoil his mood.
btw if both ok can just go for the test cos till end gyane will still order for it if still couldn't find out anything.
Don worry just hope for the best.

Thats exactly what I was told at kkhivf when I asked if I need to go through such tests. And these tests are to be done way before the ivf starts.

My uncle is seriously planning to do ivf/PGD in bkk. Failed twice in kkivf and he will also picks the gender there.

Hello Jann n hazel...sorry to hear abt ur losses hugs hugs ! How's are u girls doing with the pills?
I did the pills too...i was given 4 pills to insert vaginally every 12 hours...i inserted the first at night n went to sleep, around 4am, bad cramps n big lumps came out...i tot i dont have to insert more pills...tried calling the clinic next day, but line was busy...when i managed to get them, was told that i need to continue inserting regardless....

Hi hi! I had like episodes of gushes and gushes of blood for 2 days. After my last pill it kinda stopped totally. And I was quite afraid that the bleed is not complete. Cos without the pills I dont get the cramps and there's like no flow. But ytd after I went for a foot reflexology, I started have flow like mensus day 2 kind of flow and clots started coming out. Not sure if it's the foot reflex that works but I do hope the bleeding is complete. Going to see my Dr tmr to check. And hopefully hcg has.also dropped.

 

[soontobe]

Hi, can I check how long did your spotting/bleeding stop after D&C? I had my D&C 2 weeks + ago, but I'm still having spotting/bleeding and it seems to be slightly more now. A bit like menses (like the last few days type, not a lot but cannot use panty liner type, and it smells like my regular menses...sorry for the details).

My gynae was a bit surprised to know that I was still spotting when I went back for check-up 5 days after D&C, and he did told me to go back to see him if it continues too long. But I'm not sure how long is too long...

Hi, my bleeding and spotting lasted for 2 weeks after my DnC. Does it look like the bleeding is less compared to your 1st week?

When I did d&c, I had spotting on and off for 3 weeks, I was worried and called the clinic, gynae told me to go back for checkup and had slight infection, so I was given anti-biotic. Then the spotting stopped. For the natural mc, the spotting ended in 5 days.

Hi bliswifu, I aldy finished my entire dosage last Wednesday but till nw I'm still bleeding like as if I'm having my menses flow (nt really heavy though)... Is it normal to still hv bleeding 5 days after the use of meds?

 

[soontobe]

Actually I find the bleeding is slightly more than 1st week. So I was thinking is that my menses? Or could it coz I had other procedures done during D&C?

Ok, I think I will call to make appt to see my Gynae this weekend. Thanks girls...

Menses will report 4-6 weeks after d&c, depends on individual body condition.

Result shown 89 I will have to do another blood test on fri n come back to c gynae on sat afternoon.
gyane will only scan if hcg more than 2000 otherwise he cant c anything.
But if fri hcg test goes up to 300 I will start ivig 1st b4 seeing him. If less than 300 meaning it is chemical pregnancy.
Now required bed rest so that I can have more rest n hope the pain will go away.

actually last time my gynae told me when chem preg even high hcg also can mean chem preg. coz last year april it happens to me
then last dec, my hcg was only 5.8 raise to 22 then 3rd test drop to 5. so another chem preg.
This time when I got preggie, my hcg was at 70 at 10dpo then they stopped checking already.
its really hard not to worry, coz even high hcg also can be chem preg. so just monitor first. All the best

What Chemical Pregnancy Means:

The term chemical pregnancy means that the miscarriage happened at a point that a missed period and biochemical tests, such as an hCG blood test or a home pregnancy test (checking hCG in urine), were the only evidence that you were pregnant. The miscarriage happened before an ultrasound could have shown agestational sac.

When the pregnancy develops to the point that ultrasound could confirm the existence of the pregnancy, the term becomes clinical pregnancy. Thus, a chemical pregnancy would be a miscarriage before the fifth week of gestation -- or within about week after your missed menstrual period.

Symptoms:

The primary symptom of chemical pregnancy would be if you begin to have vaginal bleeding shortly after having a positive pregnancy test. Blood tests reveal low hCG levels that are decreasing rather than increasing.

Causes:

Doctors believe that chemical pregnancies happen for the same reasons as most other miscarriages –- probably because of chromosomal abnormalities in the developing baby. It is hard to know for sure what causes these early miscarriages, however, because it is nearly impossible to retrieve any samples for chromosomal testing.

This time when I got preggie, my hcg was at 70 at 10dpo then they stopped checking already.
its really hard not to worry, coz even high hcg also can be chem preg. so just monitor first. All the best

70 10dpo to them will increase?

Even ivf can aso result in chemical preg too. Cos even after we bt w high hcg we only get to do the scan 2 weeks later which is ard wk6... gynae aso dun do scan for us rite after bt result..
