Chicago Testing? Anyone

[Jollyben]

Hello, hope we are all keeping safe.

Please, has anyone done Chicago test and did it result in a positive ivf later?

Who knows how much it costs in Greece and US?

I have had miscarriages and failed 1iui and 3ivf. The last ivf was a FET and also a fresh cycle but I started having all the symptoms of my period just the same week of transfer. I feel my body is rejecting the embryo and never gave them a chance to survive. I had fever too after transfer.

Hey, I had these tests done in Greece. It didnt show anything major up apart from a slight clotting issue, heterozygous MTHFR (dont absorb folic acid very well) and that I have a slight increased risk of my body rejecting an embryo so we use intralipids and steriods now. I havent had success yet unfortunately however we have since done an ERA and discovered my implantation window is a ful 24 hours out from the normal 5 days so I need 144 hours of progesterone prior to transfer instead of the usual 120 hours to be receptive. I had my bloods done at the same time as a hysteroscopy under GA and uterine biopsies and it was some time ago (Jan 2018) but for both I paid around €1950...not sure what it would be separately though.xx

I paid €320 with locus Medicus for that one in Greece, via a postal kit. It is called the immunology panel. It showed no raised cytokines etc.

We did a number of other tests with them too that showed oxidative chemicals in my hubbys sperm that may have been damaging the embryos, caused by an E. coli infection. Once the E. coli was treated his sperm was better. They do a free telephone consultation to suggest what you could test for and was worth doing it I feel.
