Appointment with IVF Nurses - ICSI- Should I carry on working in the two week wait?
Hi all, me and my husband have been trying for a baby for 4 years. Next week on the 5th of March is our appointment with the IVF nurses where we will start our injections. Now I work as secondary school teacher and by then (embryo transfer) schools will most probably be open, I have to go up and down

Artificial Oocyte Activation.
As far as my research goes its basically a 'Calcium Bath' that my egg is dipped in once injected using
ICSI
. This method can assist whether it is my egg, or hubby's sperm that is struggling to activate. I really didn't want to use
ICSI
again, but willing to try anything! X

Familiar anxiety - on cusp of 3rd cycle
I'm switching to
ICSI
this round, even though our fertilisation rates are normal, we're looking for any option to up the odds that my smaller number of eggs will produce embryos. Back to the short protocol with the addition of Letrozole from Day 2 (similar to Clomid as I understand).

Bilateral varicocele surgery - Does it improve IVF ICSI results?
Hi, we have had 2 failed cycles of IVF +
ICSI
and seems like the quality of our embryos need to be improved.

“Package” cost of ivf - unfair for people who are returning patients!
I had my most recent two cycles with the same clinic who do an ivf package cost or an
ICSI
package cost which includes all bloods and initial screenings etc.

So so sad
Our first round of
ICSI
failed today, after 3 years of trying naturally. I am so so sad, even knowing the odds were less than 50% I just thought it would work for us and we would finally have our Christmas baby.

COMPLETE failure to fertilise with ICSI
Has anybody had any experience with a complete failure to fertilise with
ICSI
? We had IVF last cycle which produced 3 fertilised eggs. Sadly none of those made it to blastocyst, although we did have 1 transferred (BFN) as it wasn't far behind, so we opted to try with
ICSI
this time.

Had a bit of a break
Will start my third round next cycle and doing
ICSI
this time...and I'm also considering egg donation if things go the same as the first two rounds. Trying to stay positive but each day 1 of my cycle still gets to me (like today!)

Endo Scratch tomorrow, what’s it like?
But have had two failed fresh transfers (3 embryos) over 2
icsi
cycles now so they suggested a endometrial scratch before the next transfer in January. This will be my first frozen transfer and my last embryo in storage. What’s the endo scratch like? Does it hurt?

When will we ever be able to get abroad for IVF round 3? Anyone else feeling stuck
We’ve been TTC for 5 and a half years, done 2 rounds of
ICSI
, the last resulting in a miscarriage in March this year. Nothing frozen from either round to transfer. I work in the NHS and went back to work the week after the miscarriage and have barely stopped since. This year has been exhausting.

Endometrial shrinkage on day 14
Hello ladies... here i am with 5 failed
ICSI
cycles.. depressed and stressed. However made up my mind for my next cycle since I still have frozen embryos. But this time on day 14 of my cycle was a strange observation.

IVF Questions - can you help with the answers!
Hi I’m 41 and this is my first
ICSI
round. We’ve been ttc for over 3 years and had an ectopic this January so we know it can happen albeit unfortunately not as hoped. I’m in the 2ww and feel like I should have more information than I do. I use these forums to try and find the answers!

BFN :( ADVICE PLEASE
This is our first round of IVF/
ICSI
and we put all our hope and faith into this, we didn't even consider it would be negative (not in a naive way, we just remained very positive). Absolutely heartbroken. How long will you have to wait to start round two?

ICSI success stories - 8dpt?
I’ve just turned 30 and turned to IVF
ICSI
due to male factor sub-fertility. This is our first cycle. I’ve been so anxious, but really trying to keep myself calm and relaxed. I’m on progesterone and barely have any symptoms of any sorts.
