Restarting ivf process, 43yrs in July, looking for any suggestions, help, tips etc. for someone my age.
I had three failed rounds of solo ivf July to November last year, but then my whole world seemed to crash down around me and I had to take a break. I knew taking a six month break at my age was not an ideal thing, but I just couldn't cope. Now I am starting my solo ivf journey again, on a very tight

Supplements or vitamins for egg quality
Does anyone have any supplements or vitamins etc that you could recommend before doing an egg collection? I have done two egg collection already, 7 and 9 eggs collected, 7 got to five days and 3 made it through pga testing. Three transfers and one successful 🙌 However I am now out of eggs and at 41

Flare? Or has biologic stopped working?
I am on COSENTYX and MTX and had been doing ok. The consultant said I needed to start Alendronic acid as my bone density borderline. Within a few weeks my arthritis symptoms started to flare. I had a depo injection, but little or no effect. I have been taking celecoxib which wasn't doing enough so now

Journey of pain, cyst and Endometriosis
My story is rather a sad one. All my life, I've been experiencing one tummy issue to the other. In adolescence, i do have painful period but thats it. Though i sometimes do have some dull pain at the pelvic region when i sit on a floor for some time. Fast forward to adulthood exactly in 2020, i had

Are my follicles growing too slowly?
Hi 👋🏻 We’re at the beginning of our first ever IVF cycle. I had my first monitoring scan this morning, cycle day 6, day 5 of 150IU Bemfola. The Dr said she could see plenty of follicles and was happy with the numbers but the growth was a little slower than she’d like. She kept reading out the numbers

Total fertilisation failure ICSI
We are absolutely devastated to find out today that we have had total fertilisation failure with our 5 eggs and ICSI. How is this possible? I am finding it difficult to come to terms with. Our first round we got 7 eggs and 100% fertilisation. They upped my stims this round from 225 ovaleap to 300

natural ivf cycle experience
Hi our 6th attempt at ivf (medicated cycle 225units of Gonal F) was not successful as the eggs were abnormal. Other than ‘no eggs’ I think we have had every eventuality that does not involve a positive test. The clinic have now advised either natural IVF, mild IVF where medication would be started

High FSH & LH but normal oestrogen - aged 37 still having periods
Has any one else had a high FSH and LH blood result? Oestrogen normal. I’m 37 years old, I have very severe stage 4 Endo and adeno with a lot of bowel involvement, multiple surgeries and excisions but disease continues to return within months. Disease causes infertility so I’ve never had children.

Trying to understand what happened to my embryos.
Me again… sorry but I can’t think of much else. Calcium inophore was used ( my last round 2/3 fertilised but didn’t progress - there was a 4 cell and one 8 cell morula but other factors meant I wasn’t down for a fresh transfer) Round 2 - All 4 eggs were mature, one disintegrated on injection. .

Egg quantity at 39
Hi guys Just had my first scan during stims. My last round we got 11 follicles and 7 eggs, which I thought was kind of good for my age 39, AMH 16.8. (its male factor infertility) This time round they've ramped up my stims and when I asked how many more eggs they're hoping for this round, his words

Just thought I'd post a wee update here to give hope to others in similar situations.After 4 years of solo fertility treatment including 4 IUI's, low AMH, 5 egg collections, 5 transfers and 2 miscarriages I finally have my miracles. This was the result of my final round of IVF with my own eggs. I

UK experiences using DE
hi everyone, I’ve had a couple of months off following my miscarriage in Dec but now ready to explore my next steps. I let the clinic I was with know and they’ve offered a follow up consultation at no cost as it’s technically covered in my last round. I have low AMH and we’ve already invested about

Has anyone here been told to move to donor / adopt and proceeded with own eggs and been successful?
Has anyone here been told to move to donor and proceeded with own eggs and been successful? Nhs Consultant said that we need to look at donor eggs or adopt. He will not give us another round based on the response of the last round. Amh 1.8 and fsh 11 Two failed rounds. I don’t think I can get my head

Short protocol response question
Hello, wondering if anyone has any advice. We’re doing our last fresh cycle and have changed clinics and protocol (from long to short). I started stims (ovaleap) on Wednesday evening so have taken 5 doses so far and had my first scan this morning to see how I’m responding. There was only one follicle

QUICK TAPER; CRP RISING STEADILY; FLARING
As suspected, the very quick taper rheumy thought up (2.5 mg per week til I get to 10, then reducing 1 mg per month), has caused a flare and I'm in pre-PMR pain - almost). Currently at 12 mg but should be down to 9 by now, if I was to go with her guidelines. GP refuses to let me up the pred saying "it's
