Lower fertilization rate - managing the wait
As our issue is severe Male Factor, my husband was also having sperm retrieval at the the same time for
icsi
, so it's been a bit of an ordeal. For safety, due to risk of OHSS, they are going for a freeze all cycle. Call from the embryologist this morning felt a bit disappointing.

FET with prolapse?
I did an
ICSI
cycle with a fresh transfer in December which was unsuccessful. I’ve had recurring UTI’s since late Nov and am trying to get on top of them. I feel really uncomfortable in the pelvic area, not really pain as such, but need to wee ALL the time and I’m super fed up.

FET experience and expectations
. 🤞🏻 I’m 37, we were trying for two years and had two early miscarriages 😢 so went on to see what’s going on and turned out that hubby has bad morphology (so we did
ICSI
) but by doctor that was not reason for miscarriage (that is actually reason for not achieving more pregnancies in two years of trying

Did you self-isolate before stimulation?
Hi all, I'm due to start my first
icsi
cycle around 20th December and clinic wrote to me with a suggestion to 'work from home' in the lead up to avoid Covid exposure. I work in NHS and patient facing, which makes isolation quite hard.

Experiences with ICSI and severe low sperm count
I was just wondering if anyone else has had
ICSI
with a similar count and managed to get eggs fertilised? Just trying to mentally prepare ourselves for this aspect of our journey. Thanks so much

5AA embryo IVF transfer failed
Just finished my first IVF
ICSI
NHS round. 14 eggs retrived, 11 mature, 9 fertilised, 2 x 5 day embryos. 5AA was used for fresh transfer (was told this is the best grade so was very hopeful) 5AB embryo was frozen.

Suspected Hydrosalphinx found before egg collection
We are having
ICSI
due to poor semen & had all the tests (hycosy, all the scans you name it). Yesterday I had my last scan before egg collection and the nurse thinks I may have Hydrosalphinx. There was no mention of this on my scan Wed, I have no symptoms and I’m just devastated.

Failed first cycle- debrief.
ICSI
will be used this time in order to select the highest quality sperm possible. They also suggested for me me to try extra progesterone in addition to the pessaries which might help but isn’t funded, it would cost £180.

Has anyone done IVF and been told their eggs are destroyed?
Apparently my eggs are falling apart and they can't even fertilise them with
ICSI
in the lab. I'm 35 and told this shouldn't happen at my age but no doctor can tell me why it's happened.

Has anyone tried PGT-A over 40 and has it worked?
My partner and I have had one NHS funded
ICSI
cycle which resulted in 10 eggs; 6 fertilised but only one could be used. Our implantation failed 13 days post implantation. I have to say, I was pretty naïve going into the whole process.

Sperm DNA fragmentation -
We were due an EC in January and the clinic just want us to try MACS
ICSI
which we haven’t done before. But I’m reluctant to make more embryos if there’s something we can do to improve the sperm, even if it means waiting a few more months! I'd love to hear your thoughts on this please.

Suggestions on questions for next steps 🙏🏻
We have to have
ICSI
as my partners sperm is slightly on the low side in count and morphology. Are there any other avenues to be explored? I have asked about immune stuff but my clinic seem quite dismissive. But I’m thinking I would want to pursue this avenue a bit more.

First transfer…now for the 2WW
We had 11 eggs mature enough for
ICSI
, so I suppose I hoped to have more embryos to freeze.

Is there any hope?
So I became pregnant with my rainbow twins (3rd pregnancy, 2nd IVF/
ICSI
attempt). Unfortunately I went into premature labour at 21weeks and lost them both. My husband and I are completely broken. I just don’t know what to do. I’m 33 with PCOS and I just can’t have a baby. Is there any hope?

*Sensitive* Little One Has Arrived
Hi all, Our little girl has finally arrived after 2 years of infertility, 2
ICSI
rounds of egg collections and one transfer, ostensibly to treat severe male factor but actually, as it turned out, as a work around to my inability to produce many eggs too.

First cycle timing with delayed ovulation
Feeling a little stressed about logistics of first
icsi
cycle and needing some good vibes I'm entering the final couple of weeks prior to starting my first ivf cycle and starting to feel a bit anxious because my usual ovulation timing is delayed.

Clinics specialising in low egg reserve/AMH- please DM me!
With
ICSI

Bad News: Zero Fertilisation
We got a call yesterday to say none had fertilised so there's nothing to transfer.This is our 5th
ICSI
(3rd at this clinic since 2020) and even low our fertilisation rates haven't been high, we've never had none. I feel in shock and completely numb.

FET cancelled due to thin lining and delayed bleed
Following
ICSI
we couldn’t transfer due to thin lining. However we were lucky to get some embryos to freeze. We tried our first medicated FET (started 6mg Progynova, increased to 8mg day 13) unfortunately it was cancelled due to lining still not thickening.
