Anyone done testosterone priming?

I am wondering if anyone else has done testosterone priming before an ivf cycle and whether you got better egg quality etc?

Also I am beginning to get tired of people. My lovely SIL wrote me a message on Mother’s Day saying she’s thinking of me and my DH. Tbh hadn’t paid much thought to Mother’s Day as was on holiday but as soon as I read the message I was in complete tears. Where do people get off thinking they know our pain when really they don’t? BTW my SIL managed to get preggas both times as a kind off one try… so forgive me for not being so charitable. Rant over.

So please if you done testosterone priming please let me know.

Huge hugs to you all warriors!

Think maybe you should ask your clinic/Doctor to explain fully to you what this treatment is and how it works + how it will benefit your IVF treatment Take care

Hi, i was put on this too . It didn’t really make much difference for me sorry -but psychologically I think it did !! It helped me to think there was something else to help if that makes sense ? It was really not expensive so I gave it a go !!

My age was a huge factor for my bfNs so maybe the testogel could only work so hard. It’s worth a shot though if your doctor is suggesting it … good luck 💕
