So I’ve not been on here for a few weeks as my first round of IVF failed, well it was a chemical pregnancy. I couldn’t stop crying for about a week and I’ve been so sad ever since, I’m guessing it’s common to feel like this after a failed round, so much goes into the IVF and we just want it to work so much it’s just deviating when it doesn’t work. Almost felt like I lost my baby and lost a piece of me that yearns so much to be a mum, it’s like that woman, the mother in me is slowly fading away and the failed ivf was another step further away not closer.
Had my follow appointment on Monday and the doctors thinks the issue maybe sperm DNA fragmentation and my partner as to have this tests done to look at this and if it is this I think they will look towards sperm washing and ICSI, as apparently taking the sperm out of the fluids reduces DNA fragmentation 🤷🏽♀️
Just curious has anyone else had a similar experience with male factors and had success with treatment?
