    Dr Wendy Teo and Dr Ann Tan

    Dr Ann Tan is just fantastic. Extremely efficient. She is not someone who warms up easily but she knows exactly what she is doing.

    Dun give up. Every individual's hcg level is different. As long as u more than double on mon, you are on track. Is your spotting alot? And its brown? I have been spotting randomly accompanied by cramps since week 4 and have survived till now week 7. Definitely continue with the meds for now...

    Every follicle that is extracted leaves behind a vaccum which will be filled by fluid and blood. So the more follicles u extract, the more fluid and blood. Its like when u hv a surgery to remove something, that area is usually swollen and bruised. Same theory i think. I extracted more than 40...

    Yes Ohss is a nightmare. For those who are prone to ohss, other than drinking isotonic drinks, pls also take lotsa of proteins. Protein absorbs water so u will experience less bloating. I was taking 4-6 egg whites and protein shakes during the ER period.

    I had same situation. I was told to rest abt 1.5 mths and i had very serious bloating during the egg stimulation period. But i waited 3 mths instead due to travels etc. All the best for your FET!

    Hugs! I have a fren who gave birth to twins at 43 via ivf. Above 40 may not be subsidized but you can still use up to 15k from your medisave. 11k can be used in your first ivf.

    Oh my! Best of luck!! And tons and tons of baby dust! I went for one blast trsf too cos my theory is worst case is it doesnt stick. I can always try again soon. But if complication arises due to twins, might be more emotionally challenging and takes a longer time to try again.
