My egg vs. Donor?
We’ve been offered a 2nd cycle of
ICSI
on the NHS at no cost. As many of you know, during our 1st cycle there were communication difficulties in the lab resulting in IVF being conducted instead of
ICSI
. We are delighted that we have been given another chance.

ICSI - what happens for the man?!
Hi, Thanks to lovely people on the forum I started reading 'Get a Life' and they keep talking about the importance of the man feeling comfortable giving a sample. My OH has low count and as freezing kills up to 50% of the swimmers will he be able to use a frozen sample or will he have to give a fresh

Too scared to test!!!
Hi all, I’m on attempt no.2 at
ICSI
at Guys Hospital in London. This round has been a complete rollercoaster of emotions and happened so quickly! My OTD is Friday 22nd June and I’m too scared to do the test in case it is negative! It’s stopping me sleeping I just can’t stop worrying!

It's been a while...💖 Back on the rollercoaster! 🎢Any FET advice for returning to IVF please 🍀🤞 x
Our 1st cycle in 2015 was unsuccessful so we tried
ICSI
on our 2nd cycle in 2016 and were so lucky to get a BFP. Our beautiful daughter was born in early 2017 and is now 16 months old.

Donor Eggs?? 🍳
Hi All I’ve had 2 rounds of
icsi
with no success and have my follow up appointment on Thursday. I’m 42 and although my AMH was ok for my age I have geriatric eggs (their words, not mine🤦♀️). I have to be realistic that it may not work with my eggs and time and money are running out.

Anybody used the Yorkshire Fertility clinic?
We're going to have
ICSI
and was wondering if anyone had used the same clinic and had any feedback/tips/advice please?

Follow up after 3rd failed cycle
Just had our follow up apt after another failed
icsi
cycle. I’m not sure how to feel after it though. It turns out that egg quality was very good (just not many of them this time).

OH nearly 6 months smoke free 😁
Our next appointment is end of July where (fingers crossed) we get our referral for a NHS funded
ICSI
cycle. Hubby will be 6 months smoke free by then 🤗. I'm feeling so much stronger and positive having followed lots of your journeys on here. It's been a huge help 😘

No fertilisation
They did IVF instead of
ICSI
. The lab people have tried to fob me off but have agreed to investigate and call me tomorrow. I’ve already emailed my consultant who has confirmed that they should have done
ICSI
. Has this happened to any one else? What happened?

Decision time: #2 with my eggs
It feels like we have been thrown a lifeline with a 2nd go on the NHS and it feels right to try again with my eggs with
ICSI
. Our nurses appointment to kick start the next IVF cycle is 30th of July so a little while away yet.

Experiences of intralipid infusions as part of IVF
We’re just starting (hopefully lucky) round 3 of
ICSI
and this time i’m having Intralipid infusions after some recent tests showed I have auto-immune markers & high levels of some natural killer cells.

Feel completely deflated before even starting
Had our first appointment 2 months ago and have another appointment next week where we will talk about dates to start - we will be having
ICSI
. I feel completely deflated and we have not even started. 4 close friends have been through this, none of which were successful after a number of tries.

Update on IVF & ICSI mix up
Indeed, an error has been made &
ICSI
should have been done on Monday and not IVF. I will write a letter and provide the necessary evidence. Will let you know the outcome once I know but I will be pushing for a 2nd cycle on the NHS. The egg and sperm were ‘fabulous’ according to my consultant.

What to tell work?
We are eagerly awaiting the moment when we reach the top of that waiting list so we can try our first shot at IUI (we have agreed two IUI cycles and then we will go to IVF/
ICSI
. My question today is what do I say to my boss.
