Hi sisters, for those who have tested progesterone in NUH? Do you still remember the unit? Whether is it nmol/L or ng/ml? Thanks!!!!
Hi Ladies, i'm tested bfp 2 days ago for my 1st Fet with one blastocyst transferred. Hcg reading was 2599.
Started bleeding lightly 3 days prior to BT and it continued till the day after BT.
Yesterday walk in to KKH & Dr THH ordered a jab. Bleeding ceased at night but this morning had spotting in light red.
The nurse had told me to go O&G if bleeding continues.
May I know what O&G will do and is there any suggestions from ladies with similar experience? Thanks in advance.
O&G did does Support Jab for me thou. They ultrasound make sure all is gd and support jab but they told me min 7 days apart between jab.Hi Ladies, i'm tested bfp 2 days ago for my 1st Fet with one blastocyst transferred. Hcg reading was 2599.

I did mine at NUH... total bill about $4500, i claimed $4000+ via my company insurance... rest deducted thru medishield, actually it depends on how the dr writes the diagnosis, dr must not write anything related to infertility.. we wun get to claim anything from insurance if infertility is written
Im seeing DrChew and i requested him to try not to write infertility in the report and so he helps to diagnose as pelvic inflammatory disease... so i was able to make a $4000+ claim under my company policy, with a deduction of $500+ from my medisheld..hence didnt need any hard cash.. you can try to seek Prof for helpWhich dr were u under at NUH for this laparoscopy? I'm under Prof Wong and I'm thinking since I am seeing him now for IVF and if he want me to remove my tubes, will he write the diagnosis such that it's related to infertility?
Leave it all to the professionals and god and faith. I went thru medicated fet with lining 5.8mm only. Wanted to cancel the cycle but was my only left 2 embbies of day.3.so proceeded with transfer with open mind and cdnt careless feeling with no diet restrictions.Turned out bfp suprisingly. Take care gdluck.
Day 3 embbies.Ur frozen embryos is how many days ??

Just went for egg retrieval yesterday. Managed to retrieve 16 eggs from 17 follies... now waiting for embryologist to call to know the quality and how many fertilised.
Day 3 embbies.
Yes.U did in kkh
Hello again ladies, does anyone know what the embryo grading system is like at NUH?
And also how and when does CHR cancel a fresh transfer?? I asked if they could check my e2 levels before transfer and they say they don't do it
hey monkies! how's it?I got a faint line!!!
But... I'm still not convinced. The 2nd line didn't come up immediately. I saw one line, and just left it there and went for breakfast. After that when I came back, I saw the faint line...
Thanks for letting me know. That's why I thought I read before that someone's grade was very good. I guess excellent must be the best followed by very good etcDid you ask your Dr for his/her opinion if you should proceed? For me I opted not to have a fresh transfer based on advice from the nurses and my Dr.
This is from their website but not sure if they have more because that time the embryologist told me I have one excellent and one good.
Egg quality is graded on a good-fair-poor scale
- Good
- Clear cytoplasm/normal shape
- Single distinct polar body
- Clear/thin zona pellucida
- Fair
- Slightly grainy cytoplasm/misshapen
- Fragmented/abnormal polar body
- Slightly pigmented/amorphous zona
- Cytoplasmic bodies
- PV debris
- Poor
- Dark/grainy cytoplasm/misshapen
- >1 polar body structure
- Pigmented/thickened zona
- Vacuoles
- PV debris

i want to ask about 1st appointment with Prof Wong.
anyone decided to book appointment right on their menses date CD1 and then manage to do the blood work on CD2 and CD3 ?
Hi dear, nope not me. But mine was one week before my period was due. And I told Prof and he said ok do it on cd2, then do HSG after period over. After that it's the consult to review test results and plan next cause of action.i want to ask about 1st appointment with Prof Wong.

Hi veraine, thanks. You've helped me a lot actually thank you so much! HugsPost-retrieval consultation is usually around a week later. Prof would check for distention of the abdomen then, and also make sure we're not down with OHSS.
From what I understand, they won't cancel the transfer unless the embryos didn't make it. Your last e2 and follicle count would have been the determining factors on whether the transfer will take place.
Hi veraine, thanks. You've helped me a lot actually thank you so much! Hugs
The thing is the embryo transfer is done either day2 or Day 3 or Day 5 after retrieval, so if consult with Prof is a week after seems a little too late to gauge if I'll be ok to go for transfer. Now my transfer is confirmed for Wednesday. I really want to do blood test to check e2 because from what I understand ohss onset can happen anytime from 2 days to one week of retrieval
Welcome!
I can only say prof is a very cautious person. If there's a significant risk, he would recommend you to freeze all. And on top of freezing, he would prescribe some medicine to prevent OHSS also. That was what he did for me.
But of cos low risk doesn't mean no risk.
Very bad bloating is not equivalent to OHSS also. For one of my cycles, my waistline increased by almost 5 inches and I was in constant pain, but no weight gain so the nurses said it shouldn't be OHSS.
And don't worry too much.. otherwise you'll be so tired from worrying when u get ur BFP
can u share more about your pain?
i would like to understand more too.
is it menses cramp that kind of pain?
whats the pain level? previously i had menses cramp till i was rolling on the bed. is it that level ?
hi ladies,
Any tips for ivf preparation? My Doctor just inform us that we will start our ivf journey either on my october or November Cycle.. My hsg test shown my tubes are open.. my hormones blood test was good too as well as my egg preserves. Doctor said my eggs are growing.. hubs sperm quality is good.. they didn’t put me on any fertility drugs or supplements... the doctor only gave us a green light to go for ivf.. currently waiting for the ivf centre to give me a call and arrange the dates... any ivf mummies would like to give some tips? Do share with me.
Hi ladies, been 1 week post day 5 FET but I'm not going to test.
Just wondering if anyone experienced a lot of crinone discharge but still bfp?
We take in so much hormonal support a day (progynova, duphaston, crinone).. these few days the crinone discharge quite a lot so wondering the body's likelihood to reject the overloaded progesterone but still bfp?
Hi ladies.. anyone did GC procedure before? Is it painful??
Jus went review w Dr tan HH today.. he suggested that i do GC procedure to check inside the womb becos i alway have spotting before mense
Yes... is a scope to look at the womb & check the lining.. is it painful??i heard from dr Tan is not under GA..Is that a scope to look at the womb? If yes, then I had it done. It was done under GA.
Yes... is a scope to look at the womb & check the lining.. is it painful??i heard from dr Tan is not under GA..

Thanks ladies..My procedure was called hysteroscopy. It was done under GA and also by Dr Tan HH. The procedure is to look inside the womb and make sure all is fine. There were cramps when I woke up from GA. I did it about 2-3 months before my 3rd fresh cycle. Dr Tan reviewed the results during my next appt with him (can't remember exactly when though). My result was fine; no abnormality found. Dr Tan said he also did an endo scratch during the procedure.
If yours doesn't require GA, then probably it's not quite the same. Dr Tan said this is one of the last few things that he could offer me, given that I had gone through other tests/procedures (including endo scratch) in preparation for previous cycles. Maybe he did a more invasive check that's why my procedure was under GA.
I also did hysterscopy but without GA under Dr thh to see any fibriod. Is on day 10/11Thanks ladies..
This procedure is done on which day from first day menses?
Depends on individu. Some dun wish to wait due to fear long waiting Q.some waited due to wanting to tiow the body.so basicaly up to individu.
