Babe i miscarried twice. Both conceived naturally. One was pprom at 17weeks. My baby had a strong heart beat but couldnt breathe on her own at birth cos of undeveloped lungs. A year later, another miscarriage at 7weeks. How early should i get progesterone help?
Omg I am v sorry to hear this gal. When I had high fever ñ uti during stim stage I went to tmc and they were v prompt to handle. Also tat time had bleeding also they gave proluton. So am not sure why this time they turn away.
Hi rainbowdream this is what I take.Thanks @Vk85. Saw there are a few types of ensure milk. Can share which one u drink?![]()
U went Thomson 24 hr clinic?I went to Thomson already. Sad that the doc say better to go back kkh to consult my ivf doc... feel my trip totally wasted and paid $62 for a less than 5 mins consultation.
Tsf, don't feel depress. Opk can only detect the LH hormones that tells u the ov hormones are present but cannot tell you if you have ovulated. Ur bbt may suggest you didn't complete ov. I know you just completed a cycle? May take a while before the wonky hormones go back to normal. If you are worried, you can do blood test during CD3 and cd21 to compare hormonal levels.Dear sisters... Anyone taking DHEA and charting BBT? I have been detecting positive OPK for the past 2 cycles, but my BBT never rise after O. This was after taking DHEA.... Does anyone taking DHEA have this problem? Or am I having problem?? - feeling depressed...
Shouldn't u just give for free as blessings since u are throwing it away anyway.i have 2 boxes of prognyova to let go for price of just $10 dollars for BOTH, it's super cheap. But must deal by tomorrow last day(monday 13) as i'll be going overseas soon. Meet MRT tomorrow latest. PM if interested. Expiry date Jan 2017. I will throw if no one take. I've taken 12 tablets only and hv bfp with gb twins. so it's super good luck.
Thanks muff for the reply. This never happened before... I tried to google but dun find anything... My past fail cycles don't have this problem... Feel so lost now. It jus feels like I have no eggs left...Tsf, don't feel depress. Opk can only detect the LH hormones that tells u the ov hormones are present but cannot tell you if you have ovulated.

Ivf expensive of course want to recoop some expenses, and also sometimes some ppl dun appreciate even if foc de, not even a thank you, i've experienced so this time i rather throw awayShouldn't u just give for free as blessings since u are throwing it away anyway.
Cannot be no eggs la. But the question is more of whether did the egg ovulate out or not. Also, our bodies sometimes behave abit differently after each cycle. My cycles are also also abit wonky after my last ivf my ov is like really late and I'm also not sure if I've ovulated. U can check your Amh levels during the cd21 blood test as well. Just to be sure ... Don't stress first. And you just took dhea right? Won't be so fast for the effect I guess, if any.Thanks muff for the reply. This never happened before...

Usually my Ivf doc and tcm doc will advise to stop taking tcm herbs meds during the Ivf cycle itself. Very little is known of the potential contraindications between tcm and western meds and I personally feel it's better to minimize the burden of processing these meds together on the body, so avoid any risks. In between cycles, it is ok to take tcm meds if needed to condition your health but do let tcm doc know so that she can ensure that treatments complement your cycles.I have just started my first cycle of ICSI.. tonight will be taking my 4th gonal f jab..
Just was seek some opinion... cause I have been seeing tcm previously.. do you think it is ok to continue taking tcm meds while doing IVF? My tcm meds is more of adjusting body
Proluton is progesterone in oil and injected usually at 250ml dosage per jab to provide additional support for luteal phase and during 1st trimester. Pregnyl jab is hcg hormone usually injected as final jab after ovarian stimulation when follicles are about 18mm to trigger maturation & release of eggs at 36hrs after jab for the egg retrieval. Sometimes some doc may order pregnyl jabs as part of luteal phase support protocol after ET. It works by 'tricking' the body to think that hcg is present due to successful implantation and thereby trigger body's natural production of progesterone.Ladies can I ask what's the difference between proluton and pregnyl jabs?
Hi babe, I think the antibiotics usually administered once prior to ET is not specific for uti. If you are prone to uti, can let doc know for advice what medication or preventive measure is appropriate for next cycle if that is what you are thinking. There are probiotics sold over the counter that are specific for vaginal health (eg Optibac brand) so you may also ask doc if this is appropriate for you.I guess depend on which doc bah. I will go kkh tmr early to chk and ask.
Anybody taken antibiotics till ET before? Just thinking maybe I shd take antibiotics thru out if there's a 3rd fresh.
Hi babe, usually it is rare to have consecutive m/c at more advance stage of pregnancy. Not sure if you had previously been advised or tested fetal tissues for the cause of the m/c. If it is not due to chromosomal abnormalities of the fetus, you may want to consider consulting Dr Choolani clinic or Dr Sheila Vasoo who are reowned in SG for reproductive immunology specialty. I know dr Loh would also refer his patients who encountered repeated m/cs despite excellent embryos transferred to consult Dr Choolani clinic to get specific testing for possible immunologic issues causing elevated NK cells to attack the embryos or fetus.Babe i miscarried twice. Both conceived naturally. One was pprom at 17weeks. My baby had a strong heart beat but couldnt breathe on her own at birth cos of undeveloped lungs. A year later, another miscarriage at 7weeks.

Sisters in tww who went to work did u take public transport or cab. I feel threatened by the journey to work. 40 mins by cab. first thing I alight rush to loo to see if spot. Living in fear practically. I don't have mc to cover till bt. How safe is travelling by public transport in tww n after tat??
Hmm.. ok thanks for sharing! I think I will check with my doc tmr then.Usually my Ivf doc and tcm doc will advise to stop taking tcm herbs meds during the Ivf cycle itself.

Given your situation, it's kinda stressful having to commute and work. Coz you have spotting and tested positive implantation and trying all means to secure the implantation. It's diff from just having done FET & not knowing outcome yet. Can take urgent annual leave till BT? If not, can insist to kk to get doc to provide you HL till BT? Praying that all goes well for you. All the best.Sisters in tww who went to work did u take public transport or cab. I feel threatened by the journey to work. 40 mins by cab. first thing I alight rush to loo to see if spot.

They should be calling you daily for updates on the progress of your embryos after thawing till expected day of transfer. They will also inform you in case they require you to go for earlier than day 5 transfer if they feel that the embryos/morula are better off further developing in your womb than in the culture medium till blastocyst.For fet.. If Kkh defroze 6 embryos for 5 days blast, if any of the embryo cannot make it.. Will they call you?
Ummm, for KKH, unfortunately, it's not like that. They will not call daily on the embryo progress.They should be calling you daily for updates on the progress of your embryos after thawing till expected day of transfer.

no call could be good news. Are you on D2/3 or blast?Ok.. Thanks.. Cos suppose to thaw yesterday but today no call.. A bit worry..
Very hard to say, cos the embryologist determines the grade through naked eyes. so it's quite hard to say. In fact, those who survived more than one session of freezing & thawing, wouldn't you consider them strongest?I am on blast.. But I have been thinking .. If the first 2 best embryos are transfer before and my girl is from one of it.. The rest of the embryos should be not as good right? How can they survive the 5 days.. Hmmm..
Babe, sorry I thought the same process applies for kkh too. Based on towkayneo and as you said, no call since ytd means good news for your case.I am on blast.. But I have been thinking ..

All embryos stand a chance. I transferred 3 best day 2 embryos in my fresh cycle but bfn. So during the following FET we thawed 5 next best day-2 embryos to culture to blastocysts, and I got my first bfp with a singleton pregnancy. I hope my story is able to encourage you and inspire positive hope. Eventually what will be will be. Nothing more you can do now to influence the embryos but you need to stay well & maintain th
Babe, sorry I thought the same process applies for kkh too. Based on towkayneo and as you said, no call since ytd means good news for your case.
hihi, I am also on FET.. Can i check if the dr will determine if it will be a blastocyst or do we have a say? Any idea on what basis will the embryos be a blast? I understand that blast will require 5 embryos and i only have 11 frozen...
I am on blast.. But I have been thinking .. If the first 2 best embryos are transfer before and my girl is from one of it.. The rest of the embryos should be not as good right? How can they survive the 5 days.. Hmmm..
Ya, you shouldn't be expecting their call anytime soon..wait till your embryos cultivate into blastocyst then call. In the meantime, stay zen!Kkh is like a factory.. Ok.. Hope I don't receive call till Wednesday .. Hope I bfp for my 2nd one then I close shop Liao..
Ya me too cab everyday since et. I somemore bring cushion to sit on. I tell uncle drive slow no need rush. Some roads v bumpy. Last time heck care now super care. I see my friends who conceive natural can still travel to nz till 7 mths and for me a mere cab is a threat.I always get HL till a couple of days after BT. And when I knew I was pregnant I took cab everyday to work.
Hi @cindy_chang, I'm with TFC Dr Loh whom is commonly known to prefer day 2 or 3 transfers. However after having done 4 transfers with excellent looking day 2 or 3 embryos but bfn while was left with 10 frozen embryos, I spoke to the embryologist who reviewed my records and encouraged trying blastocysts. The embryologist suggested that to consider culturing to day 5 blastocysts, they would like to start with at least 5 frozen cleavage stage embryos as on average 80% survive thawing of which 40-50% on average would survive & grow to day 5. This means starting with 5 embryos, you have a better chance of getting at least 1-2 blastocysts. That aside, it is also the clinic's practice to do earlier than day 5 transfer should they feel that the development of the embryos in culture medium is not progressing ideally so at least the embryos have a chance to develop further in the womb.
So I discussed with dr Loh and found that he actually supportive as well seeing that I've good quantity of embryos as well as I am well aware of the risks of worst case scenario where none of the thawed embryos survive and there will be none for transfer. So we proceeded with taking 5 out of the 10 to culture to day 5 and managed to have 2 blastocysts for transfer while remaining 3 weren't good enough to freeze again. Maybe have a discussion with your doc. All the best!
Yes I didHi DawnBB, i'm with Dr Loh too!! I was on a fresh cycle but due to risk of OHSS, he asked me to be on FET. so now waiting for the 3rd menses cycle before seeing him again.. will discuss with him and see what he has in mind. Did you bfp with the blast?
Yes I didNow 30wks with singleton.
All the best for your FET!
