That’s the only non hormonal one, but I know it makes periods heavier. How bad is it really. Also pls tell me honestly how bad the IUD placement is bc that’s my bigge...

Embryo grades

Has anyone had success with a 4BB? is it a good grade? We have a day 5 embryo graded a 4BB & day 6 graded 3AB left. Our successful transfer, resulting in our child was a 5AA and we had a miscarriage with our 4AB.

Secondary Infertility?

Has/Does anyone have secondary infertility? I know I'm extremely fortunate to have one child, but our dream of having three (optimistic!!) Seems to be on hold. We've been trying for 9 months now, tracking ovulation, tests, doing the deed every other day over my peak and we haven't caught at all. The doctors are sa...

Inhixa injections

I was prescribed inhixa injections following an elective c section and I’m now on day 10 of taking them. Before my c section I knew I was going to have to take them but every doctor and consultant said I score a VTE of 2 and would only have to take them for 10 days. 1 point for elective section and 1 point for my BM...

2 embryos or 1 for transfer

I’m currently on meds for our next FET in a couple weeks time. We have 2 embryos, 1 is a day 6. When we had our consultation I asked if we should transfer both of them but it was recommended to us just to transfer 1 but ultimately it was our decision to make. We decided to go with the recommendation from the consult...

Thinking about choosing CRGH to start in March…

We’ve decided after two years of unsuccessful ttc to start our IVF journey in March, but choosing the right clinic. I’m very apprehensive about having a bad experience, this is such a sensitive and emotional journey that it’s hard to throw so much effort and money to people who are not invested in you!
