Community Posts, Tips & Support on Fertility Treatments

Hi ladies, I had a fresh transfer after recent round of IVF and tested positive this week yay! I’ve been on lubion injections as well as pessaries for luteal support. My question is how long do I continue taking these for? My clinic mentioned up until 8 weeks as it was a fresh transfer (would be 12 if frozen), I jus...

Just wow! Finally got a gp to talk to me about fertility and I’m absolutely livid! This doctor says the first port of call is to get a full blood test then i will get sent to gynaecology but we have to do those bloods first. I asked if that hinders any fertility referral because gynaecology (health and harmonie) ...

Hey girls, Iv just had my blood test results and our first FET has failed. First of all I was thinking it was maybe something I did wrong, but Im nearly 40 and they are untested embryos so it really is a matter of chance/luck. We have 4 more embryos in the freezer so on to the next 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 Good luck to everyone…

How is my boy 2! Time is going in too fast. Feeling ready, nervous and excited to go again in the next few months. Any tips / advice would be really appreciated.xx

Hello, this is my first FET with my PGT- A tested embryo. I am 5 days post my frozen embryo transfer, I have no symptoms and I have tested negative thus far. Prior to my transfer I underwent a hysteroscopy and received normal results (no fibroids, polyps etc). My clinic requires it on all patients before FET. Also, ...

I’m literally devastated, I know that IVF isn’t a done deal and it really doesn’t matter what the egg quality is graded at that every transfer is set to chance. But I had high hopes this time as it seems so positive from my last IVF but it still doesn’t make any of this easier. I’m now starting to think what even is...

Hi all, I am 43 with low amh and just had second failed IUI. I am now thinking of moving on to IVF but I am wondering how did you weigh up whether to pay for one round at a time vs a package of 3 cycles? Obviously it is very expensive but I want to give myself the best chance at success so unsure what to do. Any adv...

I have been trying to conceive since July 2024 and had no luck but this cycle I’m sure I have done everything right and want some baby dust from my fellow mothers or mothers to be. This will be my second pregnancy and my son is 2 years old and I’m very confident this cycle i have been taking preemama supplements and...

Do you believe it’s a 50/50 chance to conceive either sex or that there’s factors to help conceive a boy or a girl

I had my son via IVF and he was born in 2023… so I’m planning on starting IVF again in hope of a second child. I’m 40 this year… when I had my son my AMH was 9.2 and now I’ve retreated and I’m 2.9 obviously this is low and has got lower through ageing. Just keen to hear if anyone has had success with a low AMH. Thanks!

Hi everyone 💓 I started my stims this week and this is my first round of IVF. I go between feeling super excited, to being worried that it may not work first time. I know that it sometimes doesn't, but I've also had reassurance that for some people it does and you have to trust the process. Has anyone else felt…

Has anyone else had their clinic request previous marriage divorce papers? My clinic wants my decree absolute from a marriage that ended 14 years ago, which I think is ridiculous! I'm unsure what that has to do with my current IVF.

My husband and I are considering taking the leap and doing IVF after nearly 2 years of TTC and three losses. I have low follicle count (only 5 follicles on both scans) and lowish AMH. We have been recommended by our clinic to go through Access Fertility. They have an unlimited cycle refundable option over two year...

Has anyone used the mira fertility machine and got success stories/think it’s worth the money? I’m really contemplating trying it but already feel like I’ve spent a fortune on stuff and is it all just the same thing? I’m considering going private this year to get more answers as NHS won’t help me with my BMI and jus...

This good for nothing ass is saying he is not ready at 44!!! I’m heartbroken 💔

Hi all 🌸 Incognito as I don’t want my work to find out 😅 I’m about to embark on my first IVF and we’re doing a fresh cycle. These are the meds we’ve been quoted. I think they use Stork pharmacy. Does anyone have advice on where I might be able to find them cheaper? Thank you 🙏🏻💖 Ps. Cycle predicted to start…

Has anyone used this clinic for IVF or a FET as a private patient? Or NHS really. Trying to get a consultation booked with them and the communication is so bad so I’m wondering this is what I can expect the whole way through then cos cus if so I’ll go elsewhere 😖

I have 2 kids right now. I am 23 (will be 24 this year) and my husband is 23 (he will be 24 in May this year). 1st-girl 2 years old 2nd- also girl 9 months old Me and my husband eventually want 4 kids. I want to wait about 2 more years or so before having any more right though. After we have 4 kids I want a hyste...

I did IUI cycle this time around but looking for friends who are close to DPO with me :) let’s keep each other updated:)

Can anyone tell me if preseed works ? I've seen mixed reviews.
