Hi Ladies, Have not been in this forum for bout 3 weeks now ... Firstly, congrats to Hui!! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Really taking a break from all this IVF, but I want to cheer all of you who are cycling and thinking of cycling. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...

hi Bodhi, Thanks for your concern ... the pain is less aparent today ... hopefully its due to the expelling of blood clots, which will subside as the AF finishes... Thanks for your advice too, i will arrange to meet doc next monday (7 days from period). Just cannot stand the fact that i...

Thanks miraclebaby for your insight & encouragement ... its so good that the Australian gov heavily subsidises IVF. Its really quite frustrating that the Singapore gov talk about lack of babies, and here we are trying so hard to have one, and the gov is not even subsidising more.... sigh...

Hi Ladies, Many thanks for your encouragement. Yes i feel lousy, disappointed ... and "goal"-less. And to top it off, its like I have "damaged" my system with a very excessive process. Today, i went to see Dr Koh Lee Hoon at Thong Chai, she suggested that i take 2-3months break to get...

Hi Ladies, sorry ... bad news ... the HCG came back and dropped from 14.5(Wed) to 6 (Fri). sigh ... and was really down yesterday, and today my period came. ????????????????????????????????????????????????? Just a query, for those who failed in IVF, when the period returns, is it little...

Hi En hui, Upon having the ER, Mt E did ask whether i needed MC, but i didn need it as it was not that painful, though, MC is recommended. Since ET is 3 days later. After ET, the doc immediately gives 14 days MC. As he expects one to rest as much as possible. rgds, gracie

Hi Bodhi, I also had a cyst on each of my ovary after i started the lucrin jab. So i had them removed, and 3 days later, the E2 hormone level dropped, so i could start with the Puregon. wonder why u hav to wait 2 cycles later ... gracie
