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!

I have 2 boys from the IVF cycles. Just gave birth to my second one in Feb this year.

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...

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...

2WW with a toddler is really not easy. It's not that you dun want to rest, but u r also obliged to take care of the older one. Don't feel bad about it. Jiayou!!

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...

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.

I need to go for an urgent surgery within these two weeks n would like to get medicine to stop lactation. do u know if we can get the medicine from GP or lactation consultant?

Thanks! Hi. Do u know when he'll be back?

Anyone knows when will Dr Tan be on leave this week? I read in another thread that he's on leaves 2/4 n 3/4. Hope he'll be back on 4/4. Need to c him urgently.

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...

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...

Hi, I gave birth vaginally to my boy at 3.94 kg at 40 weeks with the help of forceps. I've a friend who gave birth to her boy at 4.1 kg at 41-2 weeks. The birth experience was a little traumatic for me though. My second one is 3.2 kg at 35 weeks +. So my gynae also suggested inducing early...

5 more weeks to go before EDD. Expecting a boy. =)

All the best for this cycle!!!

Hi, Jill. Hope all is well for u and baby. I think private gynae who aren't familiar with IVF pregnancy tend to be more cautious when handling IVF cases. I had spotting when I was tested positive for my first pregnancy n requested to see dr Tan. Was also referred to O&G cos he wasn't at his...

I checked my bill for my last delivery in Feb 2016. The delivery charge was $1350. I'm not sure if that's the doctor's fee.

I think it's part of the delivery package. https://www.kkh.com.sg/services/women/maternityservices/Pages/Home.aspx When dr Tan helped to deliver my firstborn, I paid for the delivery package before I gave birth and I only had to top up a bit after delivery as there were some complications...

Dr Tan sees patients at clinic L (TPS) on Tuesdays afternoon. My appointments for my first pregnancy at TPS used to be only on Tuesday afternoons. For his pregnant patients beyond week 14, I think he'll try to arrange for appointments at TPS. I only had to go back to clinic D for my week 39...
