Yes need to wait for a few months, for me took about 3 to 4 months normally doctors will advise you after your surgery review.

It also depends on the amount of drugs you have to use. Different people need different dosage of drugs so the cost for each patient is different too.
I was quoted an amount but I’m not too sure if that amount is already less 25%.
If haven’t, then the cost is really not too scary without government co-funding.

Hi hi,
just wanted to clarify that the 25 percent applies for only consults and scans. For ivf procedures, there is no discount and the rates are the same for all patients, the procedure cost is higher than that at kkh. But of cos you get good service.. Hope this helps ladies!

Any ladies had experience with both Roland and THH before?
I succeeded under Roland, I must say he’s very experienced. The down side is certain appt will fall on days where he operates in park way east which is very far for me..
Now thinking of trying for no.2 hence thinking of where to go

I will definitely go bak to dr Roland. I have tried THH b4 and i dont find him truly tat caring towards patients , mayb i dont have the 缘份 ...but i know there r couple of mummies here who sworn by him. I guess ultimately is which dr u r more comfortable with. I live in the west but i dun mind travelling to east side..though my hub can drive me. I understand tat staffs like Chanel r v friendly at Mt E Novena....

She didn’t disclose the amount ah. Only the discount part. If the cost is about $30k, less 25% is still quite a lot yah.
Anyway, someone had mentioned the 25% discount is only applicable to consultation and scans. Not including procedure cost.

Yes, I am gunning for #4, I have already ported my 2 frozen embryos to TMC, JB. Unfortunately, one managed to survive the thaw and biopsy. So praying hard that the survivor is pink.

Hahaha, at least we see some numbers & information here, which is akin to seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Not that we must know what is the number on your bill, just that some idea on the range would be good, BUT if you don't want to disclose, it's perfectly fine too.
It's just that I believe some ladies here, before deciding to visit THH, would like to aga aga know what is a ballpark figure cos the website, the brandname spells ATAS.

Wah sounds very scary hor, thaw, biopsy, freeze again.. then when u do FET need to thaw again.. the embryo has to be super strong
Pray for pink!!

Likely kkh wont do anything unless you’re pregnant.. yours is a what Day embryo? If it’s a day 5 embryo u can likely test with a preg test kit.

If i were you, I would check with a pregnancy kit to see if there are double lines...if there are, i would quickly go down to get a support jab. Support jabs are rather important, i feel.

Since your BT is this Friday, you can check on your own first and if it's BFP, you can request for earlier BT, and at the same time request for support jab. I tried before. All the best!

You will still go for your blood tests, BUT you can self-check and know the results earlier and be happy earlier mah

Hahaha, you this POAS addict!
Actually I’m very interested to know his delivery charges.. that’s the killer i feel... if he can disc 25% on that or even 50% that would be great
Hopefully anyone who has delivered under him can share the expected doc fees in private Hospitals!

Actually you should go to the one whom you are familiar and more comfortable with. If you were with Roland previously and succeeded under his care, maybe you should go back to him since he has your winning formula
Disclaimer: I am a THH fan. Hahahaha

I think the bulk of the costs would come from the procedures as in ER & ET, embryo freezing/thawing/storage.
Disc 25% is quite good already la, ultimately, he's running on his own now, has his rental, staffs' salaries to consider...

I would have to agree with u.. just the thought of having to travel to parkway east is quite tiring. But anything for the baby right
Yep yep! Scans and consultation fees at the moment for his clinic is so pocket friendly! But because of the uncertainty in the delivering charges I end up not following him... feels so heartbroken like we have broken up .. why he don’t leave like next year end *sobs*
U don’t have to break up with him mah. Why don’t U consult him but still keep your file open at Kkh. I don’t think Kkh is cheap too. The consultation charges by senior dr is the same as pte dr n Kkh charge extra on sat. I remember paying much more for consultation fees at Kkh. If the delivery cost is only different by 3k or so n u can afford it why not. Close monitoring n can chit chat longer money worth maybe.

Don’t be disheartened. Wait for the BT on Friday, if the results is really the same, rest well and come back stronger. Maybe FET will work for u. Do u have any frozen embryos?

Is really disheartening when I saw negative and cry out. What happens to my embryos where does it go last two weeks I just saw you were inside me and now u gone.
Christine,
You have every reason to feel the lost and saddness. Take time to cry but heal your heart soon and refocus on nurturing your health & emotion instead.
I also had my fresh cycles done in KKH, but only the number 4th & 5th Day 3 frozen embryos finally implanted in my uterus. It took me 1.5 years experiencing the downs of this ivf journey.
Jiayou. Persevere. Rebuild your health. Move on & love yourself. Hugs.
