Looking for a private reproductive endocrinologist

Please can someone recommend a private endocrinologist, I can’t cope anymore and need answers.

Age- 31

I’ve been TTC for 6.5 years.

I’ve had a resection of separate uterus (2 surgeries), Mis-diagnosed with premature menopause.

AMH- 8

IVF number 1- day 3 transfer- negative (3 frozen embryos)

FET 1- thawed all 3 embryos developed to day 6 (hatching), 1 transferred (negative) grade5AB, other 2 re-frozen

Experience hot flushes 2 weeks every cycle, and both IVF + FET cycle

6 consultants I’ve seen, each has their own view.

Last consultant gynaecologist and GP don’t know why I’m having hot flushes during my cycles when on HRT, I’m at my wits end 😩

So sorry to read about your situation. I went to Dr. Morganstein recommended by my GP privately and he was very professional and helpful, in London Chelsea West Private Outpatient.

Thank you for commenting I’ll have a look. Was it expensive if you don’t mind me asking?x

Not sure, I managed to get my private insurance to pay it as endometriosis investigation or pain investigation. Not as fertility investigation of course...

Does the N H S do this?

They do but I’m back and forth with my GP, the consultant endocrinologist suggested I had turners syndrome without even seeing me as I have a womb abnormality but none of the other characteristics of the syndrome. Nearly 7 years of my life I keen to get answer ASAP which resulted in me deciding to go private, I honestly can’t wait any longer

I’m sorry I’ve no advise or input just reading your post why is it so hard?!? You must be so frustrated going back and forth. Xx

I am, the more research you do the more knowledge and with my

Nursing background it’s even more frustrating I just want to know if I’m

Wasting my time with further treatment. I’m sure we’ll get there in the end, and if it’s means saving the pennies to pay privately so be it.x

We can conceive luckily I thought we might have trouble as I’m 38 he’s 32 I’ve 2 kids he has none. We’ve miscarried currently dealing with our 3rd in a row so firstly referred for fertility but now reoccurring mc I’m at the start with clinics I feel I’m going in blind not knowing what to ask or how to get what I need from them. I feel it’ll be a waste of time. 😕

I’m so sorry to hear of your miscarriages, it’s easy for me to say but you have to persevere with chasing them, it’s a long old journey of not knowing and waiting appointments so I feel your pain, hopefully they can find the answer for you.c

in reply to KeeKee21

Yeah I feel that’ll be the case I don’t know if I have the energy I’m nearly 39 and said at the start of ttc I’ll try till I’m 40 so only 14 months 😩
