Hi there, my OH and I are going for our first IVF consultation and wonder if there any specific questions we should consider asking please? We would welcome any suggestions! He has high sperm DNA frag and I’ve been told I’m all good but this was over a year ago. In anticipation to kick this off. Any experience of Guys and St Thomas’s would be appreciated too!! Thanks so much lovelies xx

Hi, we’re at Guys as well and will hopefully be starting our first cycle next month. They’ve been really thorough with us and my husband was referred to the andrology department for genetic testing too. Unfortunately there was nothing they can do to help so we’re going ahead with ICSI. I had read some horror stories about them never answering the phones or emails but I’ve contacted them both ways and never had a problem.

I don’t know if Diane is around but she has a really good list of questions, although I found they covered the majority of my questions without needing to ask them.

Good luck!

If you private message the nurse on here with your email address DianeArnold (click on her name to go to her profile) she has a good list of questions that you can look through. Good luck.xx
