New to the game
Wow, found this when reading up on IVF. We have rec'd out letter to come in to met with the nurse and get an idea on timescales and what happens. Both myself and the hubby have unexplained infertility, we have had 3 rounds of IUI which was unsuccessful so after a long wait of 6 months for THE letter

IUI before IVF?
I'm pcos and have been trying for 2years. Had ovaries drilled (last June) and since then had regularish cycles and I know I've been ovulating. Everything else is fine, but not fallen pregnant yet. Consultant is close to putting me on IVF waiting list. I'm 35 in March too. I fancy giving IUI a go to

Starting at last!
We finally have our start date, 11th March, they want us to try IUI first, all consent forms signed, can anyone tell me what will happen at next appointment, will anything happen or is it just another planning appointment. Was overwhelmed that we finally got here and didn't ask anything before we left

Slow letters to GPs
Why is it that consultants secretaries take so long to send letters to GPs? I know from experience that it does take a while usually about 3 weeks for the letters to be typed and forwarded to GPs but 5 weeks on and I am still waiting for my GP to get a letter from my Scleroderma specialist, to the extent

Trying to work out Plan B
I've got a final attempt at IUI around February time which just seems ages off. I've had 2 failed attempts already which is heartbreaking and so for the 3rd I thought I would give my body time to recover by waiting an extra month. But what happens after that attempt, the way I see it, I can either

Endrometrios and pregancy
Hi I am writing here because I'm frustrated and confused! I was diagnosed with endrometrios back in 2012 and had a laptropic surgery to remove 2 cysts removed each of my ovaries. Now fast forward 2015 I had a lapcroscopy last month to remove adhesions and have a dye test because I have been trying to

Ovary endometrioma and egg collection
I'm currently undergoing IVF and EC is planned for next week (eeek!). I have a 3.5cm endometrioma on my right ovary. The scans show more cyst than ovary but there are a few follicles in what little ovarian tissue there is. Does anyone know if they will still be able to collect these? I'm amazed there

2nd IUI attempt on Friday
If there is a god, he will see that I've done all I can to try and make this next attempt a successful one. I've had acupuncture, tried to walk for 20 minutes a day when I can, taken special conception vitamins, given up caffeine and alcohol and ate healthily. Friday is going to be a busy day, acupuncture

Bundle of stress!
I start my IVF cycle tomorrow after two failed IUI's and I'm so stressed out! I only get one funded cycle and I'm feeling so much pressure like this is our final hope. I responded really badly to my second IUI round and ended up being on the drugs for 45 days to get one mature follicle. I'm so worried

10 day scan... IUI Cancelled
Morning ladies. Just thought I'd share my experience yesterday. Went for my 10 day scan after my 1st try with clomid. 3x big ass follicles on the screen at the US so they won't proceed this month. They allow 2x follicles but no more. They were over 18mm too. The nurse has advised to not take clomid next

Do fertility drugs increase endometriosis pain?
The consultant basically told us to try
artificial
insemination
at home (which I don't want to do as I think it will affect our already crappy sex life due to the clinicalness of it all), the reason for this is that she says the drugs used for IUI to promote ovulation and increase fertility chances make

IVF abroad
I have not had any fertility problems confirmed but have read that
artificial
insemination
is unlikely at this age therefore IVF is the route to go. Thanks for reading.

Break up just before ivf. Where do I stand?
I am in a same sex relationship and my girlfriend is about to leave me. We have been trying to get pregnant for a while now. It is she who is receiving the treatment. After 6 unsuccessful attempts at iui the nhs are now going to fund 3 ivf attempts. I have suggested we put things on hold as I fear if
