ad, me dunno staying or quitting coz the letter is still with my boss. Will talk to him again when i came back from BKK
 
I'm new in this thread and have a couple of questions to ask pertaining to IVF/ICSI.

My hubby was tested with low sperm count, poor motility and poor morphology. It is a grave condition according to the gynae and he said the only option is IVF/ICSI. There might be some hope iwth IUI cos his binding test was normal.

I, on the other hand, is perfectly normal after undergoing the pelvic U/S and found to have no cysts, fibroids, or endometrium problems. I've also got no thyroid or progesterone problems. In fact, I did ovulate normally last month. Without asking me to undergo the other set of tests to be taken on Day 2 of menses (LH, etc), he concluded that it was a male factor.

Then, strangely, he prescribed me with Clomid for 3 cycles and Androil testosterone pills for my hubby to increase his sperm count with the hope that there'll be an increase in normal sperms (as with abnormal ones) to meet the increase no. of eggs inside me due to Clomid.

I read somewhere that Clomid has some side effects like causing PCOS, etc. I didn't visit a fertility specialist and my gynae is just an ordinary one. Do you think he's "wrong" to ask me to take clomid when I'm perfectly normal and ovluating normally every month?! I'm so scared to develop unwanted cysts since I've more follicles to dispense with each month now! Is it logical that with more eggs, it'll increase the chances of my hubby's already defective sperms to hatch my eggs?

Is any one of you here who is normal (i.e. your case is due to male factor), and is undergoing all these sufferings just to bear your hubby a child?!
 
Hi vexed,
morning. i've not gone thru clomid, so i really can't comment on that. However, i do understand your feeling about being perfectly normal, & yet have to go thru fertility treatments beocs of male factor.
We have a few sisters here, me included, that have gone thru IUIs, SO-IUIs, IVFs, FETs etc, in the hope to get pregnant...
My take is, if you have doubts about your current gynae, do get a 2nd opinion b4 you start any treatment. Bring all the test results to the 2nd gynae (or fertility specialist) & see what his/her comments/advice is.
Dun take all these as sufferings. It should be a mutual agreement between you & your partner to go thru all these, together.

Cheers!
 
Hi Ladies,

Jus to confirm, is the Dr Yeong that you all mentioned from KKH??

Hi Ad.

But find this RE so funny lei, really giving personal touch to all patients. I think I will laugh when he holds my hand. But if he don hold, then I will feel he short change me. Cham.

there are many who succeeded under him and maybe they are in a better position to advise you...

Ad
i changed nick coz y'day my yanzi happened to read my postings and all the bad things i said abt him he also know liao and we had a big quarrel last nite. So in the end i decided to change my nick lor, very "ma fan"....
Me most likely will be goin for the operation the week after next but after y'day quarrel im having second thots alrdy...

tnsw,
feel very strange when you call me vege, kekeke...not used to leh, kekeke
happy.gif

i think you will graduate faster than me, coz at least you have definate plans liao but for me, im still unsure...maybe have to change my temper first before attempting to get pregnant
 
vege,
definite plans but dun thk they translate to anything...hv been thru cancelled cycle as well and if continue like that, hor...my money oso dry up liao...but muz keep positive...u got youth on your side mah...
 
vege,
huh? big quarrel ah? ok not? how come you yz knows how to come in to read this thread huh?
And how come quarrel liao make you have 2nd thoughts about going thru the treatment?
 
ad,
if i go doc yeong, dun i have to sign up all the forms and go for counselling again with my yanzi and then he has to go for all those tests again, am i rite?

if you do go doc yeong, can ask him for me...then i hv to do the whole round again, correct?
 
tnsw,
if you've gone thru all the tests, & counselling, i dun think you need to go thru them anymore...cos novem also asked the same thing. She's gone thru counselling at KKH b4 & didn't want to go thru it again in TFC, so i think she spoke to Dr Y & managed to esacpe that...
 
Ad
after quarrelling with yanzi i have no mood to bear his kids anymore and that's why if i reali have problem then let it be lor...now not much mood to talk abt having kids liao

tnsw
you also feel like seeing Dr Yeong liao? good good then we can discuss abt him and laughed together, hahahaha
happy.gif
 
vege,
dun like that la....just be careful next time lor...dun say bad things about yz liao la....i'm sure you'll feel better after your BKK trip this weekend...
 
ad,
thanks, let me think about it...
will ask novem abt it....do you noe how come novem change re or izzit she was seeing him all along so it was okay?

vege,
hv to think thru, my yanzi wld jump...if were to change re again...
 
Hi Poohy,

So where is Dr Yeong practising now? Is a He or She? I tot of gg to see Dr Christopher Chong but realise he doesn't specialise in infertility?? Any one has experience of seeing him?? OR anyone got recommendations for preferred gynaes??

Dunno if I m considered requiring IVF or not although not really TTC.

Tweetie
 
tnsw
if you reali seeing Dr Yeong must make sure he holds your hands ok? kekeke...
happy.gif

i dun have any feelings when he holds my hands, onli scared that he will asked me to pray, hahaha

Ad
hope things will change for the better when i come back from BKK though i think i reali ought to change my temper first, cannot everything also take for granted.
 
tnsw,
if you think your current RE is good, then just wait lor, anyway it's just to wait for another 2 months. you can always use these 2 months to build up your body....further more, there's costs to be consider. The drugs is more pricey in pte clinics than KKH...so weigh the pros & cons & also whether you are really in a hurry to not even want to wait for another 2 months, then decide the next step lor...my 2 yuan's worth...

hi vexed,

i cannot answer your question on clomid too for male factor. however, i do know it's safe to take clomid for up to 6 cycles. to be sure, you can stop at 4 cycles if you still do not succeed. i have a friend who conceived on the 2nd month of clomid with male factor, low sperm count.

as for lccheng, i am seeing him for my ivf. i have not started yet as i have to arrange work schedule before i start.

he is very nice and patient. even when scanning, he takes time to explain to you on what you see on the monitor and i took the opportunity to ask him a lot of questions then and he explained patiently and showed me on the U/S screen while explaining. in my personal experience, he's excellent so far and i have full confidence in him.
