Hi Mrs Choo,
Your situation seems almost like mine
My tests all came back ok. Tubes no blockage, Day 3 blood test ok. Day 21 blood test (progesterone), doc said my level a bit low. Although it was inconclusive, she said possible that I may not be ovulating regularly. But every month I use ovulation test kit, sure will show
leh. Finally dia tests on my hubby, realised he has low sperm count. I tried one cycle of clomid but no success. We've been trying for 2yrs+ now. Went to TCM, Malay massage... drink blessed water, put pillow under butt after each ML session. Hahaha! But not successful also lah
I've never tried IUI. For us, we decided to just go ahead with IVF lah, cos a bit tired of waiting liao. Hope to start in May09. And since now got govt subsidies for public hospitals, it's less of a financial strain for us. Although pple always say, ivf should be the last resort and we're jumping immediately into ivf. What if it fails ... ? Well ... we'll just have to live with our decision then.
BTW, maybe you might want to change to the digital ovulation test kit. I think easier to use and see. Those "manual" ones with lines sumtimes even I also don't know whether +ve or otherwise. Confuse me more. Digital ones very straightforward. hehe...
As for which gynae/doc to see, like what the ladies here said, try to get one who has experience with infertility treatments. From KKH, I think Dr Loh (Head & Snr Consultant) and Dr Sadhana (Snr Consultant) are pretty highly regarded. Raffles... Dr Sheila Loh (she's previously from KKH). The rest of the hospitals maybe the ladies here can advice
Talk it out with your hubby and decide which course of action you both would be most comfortable with. Hope you'll be able to make an informed decision. All the best!
