Hello ladies! I did my 2nd FET on 29 Jan and was tested positive on 14 Feb...
Baby dust to all of you and jiayou!
Congratulations!
Can I ask the difference between fresh and frozen?
I did fresh once but failed and have frozen embroyos.
What's the procedure like since there is not ER involved? Any injections required?
Hii ladies..
Nice to see you guys.. i did all my IVF treatment in NUH and was about 26-27yo when i first did my fresh cycle..
Already did 1 fresh cycle and 2 FET cycles..
I just did my ER today and this is my 2nd fresh cycle..
For both cycles, i had my embryos all freezed due to high levels of hormones with the likelyhood of getting OHSS.. and also because they suggested to do frozen cycle due to higher success rates..
When i questioned about it, they said because when we're doing the fresh cycles, the womb lining may not meet the requirement and also our body is filled with other hormones that might not support pregnancy which might affects the success rates of the implantation..
Therefore in other words, during fresh cycles our body were already wrecked by all the medications from the injections.. thus its not at its best condition..
Best is to do ET when body is ready for higher chance..
But this would also depends on individual..
Some may agree and some may not..
Fingers crossed and hope everyone had a happy ending!!
My first born was also conceived through FET. At that time I didn't get to transfer right after my ER because I have OHSS.Congratulations!

Hi there everyone, I’m scheduled for IVF in March too ! So glad to meet so many buddies here. I just called KKH IVF as I have some spotting but they said to call them again when I have fresh blood kind of menses. Made me so worry. Because Tml they are half day (sat), Sunday close. Probably I will only get to do my scanning on Monday. Will it be too late by then ? Can anyone brief me what we gonna do on the first visit ? Just scanning ? Which day will we be injecting those meds ? TIA!
Hi everybody! I am new to this forum. Hope to gain more positive energy from this group.
I have tried IUI twice a few years ago. My cycle of IVF didn't end up well. My lining was too old for fresh cycle. Thawed two embryones but only 1 survived the thawing process. The one embryo did not make it. Currently left with 1 frozen egg. Dr Tan HH suggested me to start a new cycle to harvest more eggs.
I just did my second ER last week. Doc Tan HH noticed a 2cm fibroid growing in the uterus when he did the ET. He suggested to freeze the 3 eggs first. Need to review after the menstruation.
Not sure if anybody can share more about fibroid and pregnancy. Don't like the idea of having an operation at the uterus. It sounds invasive to me.
Hello all
I am scheduled for ivf in end mar.
Wondering how many embyro did u gals transfer in one cycle? 1? 2?
Hello everyone.
I just had ER on last Thursday. I could not proceed to do ET due to high risk of ohss. Anyone knows when would be the earliest that I could do a FET?
Hi everyone I am on my day 6 stimm now on menopur, and hopefully doing EC between mon to thurs next week! Anything to help condition the follies for EC, diet wise? First time ivf!
Wow, congrats and smooth delivery to your wife!Not to worry. How worst result IVF could help as well. My sperm test result is Oligoasthenoteratozoospermia... n we thought no chance to having baby. But thanks to IVF... my wife will delivery in coming April
Hi Minzzy, all the best to you too. Jia you!!Hi Mellyn I think will be about 1.5 to 2 months as the Dr will give you medicine to regulate/induce menses and prepare the endometrial lining(this was what the nurse told me during my ivf counselling) but I think there is another non medicated method (natural?) All the best!
Hi, for your first IVF? Which hospital u went to? Did u really bed rest for the first IVF? How old are you then? I understand ppl always say age plays a partHi, today is my 8dp5dt. Im in my 2ww now, everyday is just crawling pass but i feel so normal, always tired (but previously before menses i also will feel very tired). Im a sahm with my girl (from the previous ivf) and i have the urge to POS but im so afraid to see the result. Shd i? Omg i think the waiting is driving me nuts.

Is it pain? Wow! I’m 30 this year! Scare of the result!I did mine at kkh. I had vague memories of my first cycle tbh, i think i nv really bed rest just that i slept alot. Im 27 for my first cycle.
Ya, i think age plays a big part too.
30 is still young la. Dont worry too much. I think thr whole ivf is not pain. The painful part is the mental stress u gg to face.Is it pain? Wow! I’m 30 this year! Scare of the result!

Hi nadrasophia,Hi Mellyn! I'm letting one cycle pass and doing mine 1 month later!
Hi nadrasophia,
Is this your 1st cycle? Is it also due to ohss?
How many jabs do IVF requires daily? Is the jabs painful?
Is it a pen jab? Because I tried Gonal F pen jab, it was ok.. I can’t inject syringe myself as needle is too thick. How many times u went back for review during these two weeks of injection?My daily cocktail as follows:
Day 2 to 5 i had one jab of menopur
Day 6 to 8 one jab menopur and one jab orgalutran
Day 9 to 10 reduced conc of menopur, one jab of orgalutran
Day 11 trigger shot (two jabs)
Day 13 ER!
I think menopur was ok, i cld administer myself also. But orgalutran and the trigger.. Eheheheh i cried. But i have a low pain threshold so... U might be able to cope with it better
I see. So your doctor recommended that this way is better? Initially, I was quite disappointed that I could not do a fresh transfer.Yes first cycle! Nope actually we discussed this with the doctor earlier while planning our journey and we agreed to take a month to flush out the drugs and let my body rest before we do the FET.
I did my er three days ago. Only had 12 eggs though, much lesser than num of follies during the scans. Sigh. Super bloated last night i just had a few slices of bread for dinner. But maybe not enough, last nightbad bout off gastric. Such a roller coaster ride!

How about orgalutran? Is the needle head thick? Which hospital are you with?Some use gonad F for ivf as well. Mine was menopur (needle n syringe) but the head is small, so not as painful. But the injection get a bit stinging with higher dose.

Which doc are u with now?Thrice, before ER. All jabs were syringes though
Hello...the nurse would let u know whether you are under long or short protocol during the counselling session.Does anyone know if the ivf process (long/short protocol; timeline etc) will be advised by the KKH doc during the consultation or at the counselling session?
Which doc are u with now?

I just came across ur post. I hope that your ivf has been a success. Ur case n my case is totally the same. Not sure have u see any tcm?Hey everyone
Anyone starting IVF cycle in March 2019?
I'm a 29yo female, TTC for 1.5 years. DH is 32.
We have had 1 failed IUI in Jan 2019 and will be proceeding with IVF at KKH for this coming March cycle.
Doctor dubbed us "unexplained subfertility", but she thinks it's most likely because DH has low sperm morphology (Teratospermia).
Our IVF briefing is scheduled for late February.
Anyone on the same boat?
Anyone been through IVF and willing to share tips?
Anyone has tips on how to naturally improve our chances?
Thanks~
