I start IVF soon and need to know what should I prepare for… I’ve have my tubes tied and just rather go through the IVF route.

Hello lovely ladies! I’m hoping a few of you might be able to meet out. We have finally given up with waiting on NHS. And we are now going private! We live in the Bexley area, and we are looking for the best fertility clinics around , to help us finally give us our family! Though myself, my mum and my nan are curren...

Hey ladies so I tried the mucinex method ! Basically you just take any kind of mucinex right before sex and it suppose to help you get pregnant ! I will say it 100% worked for me. I got a positive last night 🥰

I’ve just read somewhat a horror story that some women become infertile because they had an implant. I’m waiting for a letter with the appointment date to have mine put in and now I don’t know wether I should go through with it or not. I want to be able to give my baby a sibling in the future just not yet as I’m men...

Any food I need to avoid or anything I can do to help with the outcome? Thanks I’m so nervous! 😫

Hello Does everywhere say you have to have a certain BMI to be eligible for NHS funded IVF? Iv got 5 pound to go until I can be listed and it’s so hard to get this last bit off. Also do you have to be a certain BMI for funded IVF?

Hi ladies ☺️ I’m after some advice I have been told I need to have one of my fallopian tubes removed before we can begin IVF has anyone had this done ? Be great to get some advice ect? Many thanks 😊

It's been 1 year since we started TTC..1 MMC and 1 chemical at 7 weeks. It has taken us 2-3 months for each although now still waiitng for the BFP. Should we continue trying or IVF? Any thoughts? Am above 35 years old. Thanks!

Has anyone had their IUI cycle cancelled because of having too many dominant follicles? Were you given the choice whether to proceed or not?

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to give some clarity to my situation. I saw a private fertility consultant this week, I had 2 losses last year. I mentioned Progesterone and he seemed pretty blasé about it “it’s expensive but you can try it if you want?” He sent over a prescription with the fee of £1850! Befor...

Hello, I have been TTC for 3 years with a low AMH level at 1.14pmol/L (now probably lower). I am turning 40 this year. We have no other issues apart my age and low amh. In November, we started fertility treatments - one unsuccessful IVF cycle , then four unsuccessful IUIs. I feel that the current clinic does not rea...

I’m doing my first round of IVF but already feel anxious about future plans. I want 2 kids but don’t want to have them immediately back to back as I’ll need time. I have this round covered by heath care but i want to have as many eggs or embryos in the freezer now rather than go through this process again in 2-3 yea...

I had LLETZ done yesterday to remove abnormal cells from my cervix…I’m just wondering if anybody else has had this done and what their pregnancy was like, as my doctor told me that it can cause preterm labour if I was to have another one in the future (not planning anytime soon!) Also what were your side effects after?

Hoping to hear from people who have transferred two embryos. Did it help you fall pregnant? What Grade were your embryos? How many transfers had you had first? How common is it for both to fail? This will be my 7th and final cycle Thank you x

So I have the injections for 6 weeks, I've done them every day and this morning I was so rushed I totally forgot to do it, I'm 6 weeks on Tuesday so not long left to do them, will I be OK I am a worrier 🤣

Hi all! I have had my fertility referral sent to the Exeter clinic by my GP and been told I will hear from them “in due course”. Has anyone been through this process and know how long I should expect to wait and what the next steps will be? Thanks!

Alright yall. Those of you that have/had IUD’s how bad was getting it inserted? According to my L&D nurses I have a super strong pain tolerance, it’s just my anxiety that trips me up. I got the foley balloon and I didnt think that hurt at all so I’m wondering if I’d do okay with the IUD but idk if thats comparable. ...

So this cycle will be our 1st medicated IUI cycle. I started my cycle yesterday after taking Provera. And will be starting Letrozole tomorrow. Are there any ladies in the same boat or similar?

I just had baby number 2 six weeks ago. Went to my six week check up today and spoke to my doctor about birth control options. I am very seriously considering the IUD, but have two sisters who have had completely different experiences with them. One sister said it was about the same amount of pain as when you have ...
