Itjabi, I did my polyps op in Feb. 1 month before I started IVF.
Serene, I told Dr Loh that for thw whole IVF process, only the high dosage of puregon I cannot tahan. Too painful for me and he say no choice. If you can, try to exercise more frequently before you start your puregon injection.
WK Yoo, BT is a must when undergoing IVF. So not my choice to take or not. But I am fine with injection for BT as I don't find it painful. So far based on my existing results, the main problems I have now is 1 blocked tube & high FSH. The rest of my results seem fine as I am ovulating well with regular mense. At this stage, my mentality is I won't keep continuing with IVF if still no god news after maybe another 2-3 tries. Cos it is for me to take long leave, even for 1 week MC.
juju78, it really depends on individuals. Having baby may be my top few priorities now but not my top priority yet. Somemore I am the type who cannot tahan without a job. If have children, then quit job is fine. Time will be spent in taking care of the baby and it is worth it. But definitely a "no no" to quit job just to concentrate on IVF or baby planning. Cos I will never know when I will strike. Better to have a job to keep myself occupied
I believe you got tell your boss you are going for IVF right? I think if I were to tell my boss, he will understand too. But I am not comfortable letting my colleagues, including my boss know that I am going through IVF as there will be stress when the cycle failed. Everyone will keep asking one after another non-stop.. No point give myself unnecessary stress. Peace at work is the best *wink wink*
libby, that is very encouraging indeed
Thanks for sharing.. by the way, is it not advisable to exercise straight after a failed cycle? I suddenly feel very weak after exercising just now.. hmmm.. planning to go jogging tomorrow morning. Then prepare some chicken soup to drink.
Hazel, so far for my previous visits to Dr LC Cheng at thomson, he mentioned that my follicles grow well to good sizes for ovulation. He also mentioned that the shape of my uterus is good, lining is good also.. So I thought only problem is my blocked tube. But now that I understand on FSH, I think I don't have many follicles last time during scanning. And I also don't know if my eggs are good or not also. Think difficult to know the quality of the eggs.
