A positive journey so far, awaiting transfer on Sunday!
My partner and I are having
ICSI
at the moment after trying to conceive for 3 years. We did our egg retrieval this week. They collected 22 eggs and 19 of them fertilised on day one and all are doing really well (day three update with a minimum of 6 cells each).

Third fresh failed (6th embryo) š¢
This was our 6th embryo that has failed in a row on our journey for a sibling for our little girl (she was the result of our very first fresh round
ICSI
almost 4 years ago!). Since having her I have never seen a positive pregnancy test and it's been the most heartbreaking journey.

Lifestyle changes for fertility
We've had 3 failed
icsi
so far, now embarking on private. It's more of a moan and looking for reassurance that this is normal to feel this way. We have finally got more answers and sense in one consultation then 3 years nhs. They suggested Mediterranean diet, certain supplements to help.

Change clinics after failed first attempt?
They said all eggs looked healthy quality but only 4 fertilised ( they said
ICSI
plus calcium might be tried next time, no male factor, I think they think itās my stubborn eggs)š Out of the 4 that fertilised, we got 4 day 5 embryos ( 3 became blasts).

Success stories with ICSI
Did
ICSI
too. Out of 5 mature eggs, only 2 fertilised on day 1. The embryologist will grow then until day 5 but not sure if they will survive. Itās very upsetting. Anyone has any success stories?

To get signed off, or not to get signed-off, that is today's question!
We only have enough cash for 2 more IVF with
ICSI
and PGT rounds so want to make sure I am in the best place possible physically and mentally and not kick myself later - but also do what's right for us. I [u]
cannot
[/u] lose my job, outside of a lottery win.

7 Eggs collected, 3 fertilised
Husband low in every aspect so we do
ICSI
. Assuming itāll be egg quality but wondered if anyone can add anything. Never had any further investigations done with sperm, never been offered anything. Xx

First IVF Cyle - Endo sufferer - What should I be doing to prepare?
His recent fertility results show his morphology and mobility is below the normal level ā¹ I found out on Friday that we have been approved for 1 round of private
ICSI
cycle. Delighted, honestlyā¦ it feels likes the months of hard work have been worth it for this chance.

Supplements for men for IVF
My husband has normal sperm but is slightly low on the morphology side (4% now and was slightly less in a previous test) and we are doing stardard IVF, not
ICSI
. The Dr recommended Impryl and my husband has been working to cut down alcohol.

Hysteroscopy wait times
Privately, it would cost something like Ā£2.5k, which we could afford but saving our pennies for when we start finding our
ICSI
treatment privately. Has anyone else been in this situation? How did you manage the waiting and worrying? Thank you lovelies xx

Need mental help or support about sharing the ivf procedure with parents and in laws
I'm Indian 36+ ttc since 2016 and moved to UK in 2019. 2 iui + 1ivf

FET failure. My parents torture me to the core to share all the details of my process and everytime I tell them they have no rights to ask and I'm not obliged to tell, they start up their drama of being silent.

Is this a positive?
We're going through
ICSI
and have had our fresh transfer of a 5day embryo at grade 3 / 4 AA. We are now on 11dp5dt, this is our official test day. We have these results. Cautiously optimistic as we've had two failed cycles. What do you guys think?

Should I be worried that my clinic is moving to egg retrieval too fast?
So I am currently on
ICSI
stims. I am showing as 5 decent sized follicles with a few pluses. Because I am doing PGT-A testing my lining is unimportant. However, I am a bit concerned that my clinic is moving too fast to do a retrieval because I have 4 good sized eggs.

Hi all, sorry if my post goes on forever. Iāve been contemplating for a while about posting but I havenāt know what to say. Iām 35 and husband 41 and after tests in Aug, it was realised weād need IVF. Iām really fortunate to have a work benefit through private healthcare and will be using that. Following

Adenomyosis
We proceeded with
ICSI
because of the male factor infertility element. Anyway... having failed on my first transfer I am now in that zone of "what if anything can we do differently moving forward?" I'm guessing being an epic fertility researcher is my way of coping!

Embryo grading
The 4 higher graded ones are through
ICSI
and the 2 lower graded ones (4CB) are conventional. My gut is to try to transfer the highest rated embryo, but y husband feels strongly about trying to use a conventional embryo, which are the lower graded ones.

Dealing with grief friends' pregnancy announcements
I'm on a little break having more tests after three negative transfers and one chemical over the last 6 months from our first
icsi
round. It's taken me a few weeks to surface from quite a dark place.
