    Hi, On the day of the BT, you will have to collect a report from the embryologist. They will inform you abt the number of embryos or blastocysts that have been successfully frozen and stored. All the best for your cycle!

    IVF Mummies 2018

    Hi Angel, I had to go for IVF as my husband had to undergo chemotherapy for his medical condition. So we stored his sperms at KKH before the chemo. For my first cycle, I didn't pay much in cash after Medisave withdrawal and govt co-funding (if you are a singaporean). About $600 for the...

    IVF Mummies 2018

    Hi, For both my fresh cycles, my stimulation period was about 10 days and OPU was on the 12th day. (This depends on the growth of the follicles and the thickness of the lining.) Embryos were cultivated to blastocysts and transferred back to body 5 days later. If not, embryos will be transferred...

    Hi, I was prescribed Ganilia too for both my pregnancies. You can just take two tablets once daily. It's not a medicine so I dun think you'll need to space out the intake. As for Duphaston, usually take for the first trimester. U can check with your gynae about it. If there's spotting, may need...

    For my second cycle last year, Dr Tan and the embryologist recommended to transfer 2 day-5 blastocysts although we have discussed to only transfer one earlier on. It's dependent on the quality of the blastocysts. The quality of mine weren't that good so they decided that transferring 2 back...

    IVF with KKH (Tan HH)

    Thanks. I called the hotline. Hoping to hear from them too. Wana resume the feeding after my op but it's a major op n I'm not sure if I can cope with the continuous pump n dump n the Long recovery process. Thought dr Tan might be able to give me a more practical advice.

    Hi Zcshop, My friend did IUI under Dr Tan last year. The scans were all done in KKIVF by their sonographers and reviewed by KKIVF's doctors (similar to what we did for IVF). But the insemination process was not done by Dr Tan, (unlike IVF where he did the embryo retrieval and transfer). I did...

    March 2018 Mummies

    Hi. My gynae was also very concerned when I told him that I didn't want to induce over the CNY weekend cos we are really not mentally prepared for the baby's early arrival. In the end, after considering what happened during my first delivery, I decided to go for c-sect next week. Cos my baby is...
