@Pinkiebb and @Ginny_minnie, actually you need a thermometer that measures to the tenths place (ie: xx.x) a digital thermometer is ideal. A standard (mercury) thermometer that reads only to the whole number will not enable you to capture the changes in BBT due to hormonal changes leading to...

Happened to drop by Pasir Panjang Wholesale market so went to take a look thinking of stocking up on some dried food stuff like white fungus, red dates etc from one of the stalls that I buy from. This stall at blk 16. Chanced upon 500g packed Brazil nuts looking very fresh and was shocked when...

Dear sister, I'm feeling your disappointment & feel sad for you. Still the right thing to do now is to follow your clinic's advice, call hotline let them know the situation then follow their advice on support and BT. Re. further treatment cycles, You can give it more thought but whatever your...

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement. All the best to you too! :)

Dearie, you really don't know what it is yet so don't lose hope. Must stay calm, don't put your body and mind under more stress. If not improving, can call clinic hotline for advice. Rest more & no strenuous activities. Stay positive k. Just do your very best. Rooting for you & your beanie.

Dearie, I would think should also let doctor know as maybe the progesterone meds for post transfer support need to be adjusted for your case. Anyway good to let doctor know so he can advise. All the best. Jia you k.

Hi sis, actually if you have not yet bought the supplements, you can check out online store iherb -http://sg.iherb.com/search?kw=ubiquinol#p=1 Much cheaper than GNC, Blackmore or buying at local pharmacies. They have reputable brands like Healthy Origins, Doctor's Best, Jarrow's Formula, Life...

No need to obsess too much as it causes stress and that's not good for you & your embies. Drink more water, at least 2L daily. Take it easy, eat well & have good rest. Talk to your embies everyday! Jia you :)

Constant headache can be sign of excess heat. Did u add longan in your red date drink? Should exclude longan and perhaps stop this drink at the moment. Drink more water, can be luke warm and don't hv to be hot. If feeling heaty, body would be warm, palms & feet also feel more warm, wear house...

My doc told me it's not so much of the level of temp. Everyone is different so bbt may not be similarly high. What you need to see is a clear shift in bbt between pre- and post ovulation and the higher temp post ovulation must maintain higher for at least 12 days if not usually 14 - 15 days...

For natural FET, only start estrogen & progesterone support meds after transfer till BT. For medicated FET, CD2 start estrogen pills till CD14 first scan. If lining ok, start progesterone insert and transfer. Post transfer continue estrogen & progesterone meds for support till BT. This is the...

Fibroids and polyps are actually different. Good reads - 1) http://www.dfwfertility.com/how-polyps-and-fibroids-affect-infertility/ 2) http://www.ivf-infertility.com/infertility/causes/uterine.php

In NC-FET, no estrogen medication is taken starting from CD2 or 3 so your body's natural hormones work to build the lining and grow the follicle, then LH surge to mature the eggs for ovulation. Transfer is then timed post ovulation to coincide with optimal window of implantation. If natural...

Thanks so much dear. Yes, that reminds me of another fave quote which I missed out! "God (or the higher power out there) answers in three ways: He says yes & gives you what you want; He says no & gives you something better; or, He says wait & gives you the best." Just do my best then go with...

It is natural to worry and fear but it must not stop us from having faith and hoping for the best. Still must take good care, rest well so body in best condition to receive your blasties. Just do your best and no regrets! Jia you!

I have just confirmed today that I will abandon my natural FET this cycle. Follicle was 15.7mm & lining 8.6mm on CD10 last week. Today is CD18 and OPK still -ve, feeling not right so called clinic. Good thing is managed to see doc today. Follicle is only at 16.1mm so doc confirm this is a lousy...

Don't be scared dearie. There is nothing much more you can do now other than try to stay calm as stressing yourself definitely won't help. What will be will be. Just do your best and hope for the best.

I'm on natural FET and no meds at this stage while testing OPK. Don't worry about it. Meds are prescribed based on individual condition and everyone will be different. At this stage the focus is to build your lining and ensure timely ovulation so these meds will help. Just trust the doc and if...

Dear sister, thank you so much your encouragement! I hope you stay strong and continue to build positive energy for the next try. As they say it's the courage to continue that counts. Persevere and jia you!

Someone also previously asked for a ballpark figure of how much it costs (all inclusive plus meds, consultation, scans, blood tests during ivf, procedures) to have a round of ICSI with Dr Loh at TFC. It's average SGD15k more or less dependent on stim protocol, amount of medication and number of...
