Sadly, I've just found out that my 1st IVF cycle has failed! I chose to not have endo surgery before my 1st cycle however, all my embryos were very low quality & wondering whether endo had an affect on quality. 15 eggs were collected, 7 fertilised and only 1 was strong enough for transfer on day 5. I am now not su...

12 days post IUI, anyone the same ?

I’m after a bit of advice/opinion… a few years ago we underwent two rounds of ICSI (failed fresh transfer followed by successful FET).

Anyone have any recommendations for an injector? I’m thinking about filler but there’s a sea of injectors and need some guidance. If you can share the website or social media with me that would be great! TIA!

What do you all think about insemination kits? Have you used one? If so, which one and was it successful?

Somehow our daughter knows or something and becomes so much mo...

Hey guys! There’s hype online about DHEA supplementation for people with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Online it states dosage 25-75mg. I’ve been on 25mg and I’ve had my bloods done and my DHEA is above normal range. Is this the idea? Online is doesn’t say if it’s given only to people with low levels, it suggest...

Hey everyone 👋 So I have had high protein in my urine since 9 weeks and was being monitored and now at 25 weeks the consultant has decided to give me dalteparin injections which I have to administer daily. I am also unsure as to how this could affect my birth plan going forward as it was only a nurse I saw to…

We had our first with the help of IUI, we had some NHS support and it was all paid for before Covid. I am interested what the prices are these days? How much should we save up to be able to afford to have a second child?

Screenshots below!!! So not getting into too much detail as it’s not necessarily so little bit of backstory in much detail as I can as this will be anonymous I was going through ivf without a partner and was successful (I’m 16w3d) And now in a committed relationship And his SIL spoke to a close person of his and...

Hi. Any advice for low AMH and ivf? We currently doing all the test with the nhs fertility clinic here in London.

Hi all just about to embark on a frozen embryo transfer by the natural method. My clinic said they will wait till I’ve found ovulation using the OPK strips AND THEN DO TRANSFER A WEEK LATER. Does this sound right 🥴
