    Thank you! It’s so hard knowing so many try once and boom pregnant. It’s also tough knowing we are relying on science that means brutal shots and lots of testing. Not enough support out there for those who are infertile, and it’s commonly misunderstood. Each month that goes by I have to wait, and then I come across another road block. Waited forever for a laparoscopic procedure and now I probably have to get a second one. An entire year of fertility medicines, ultrasounds and blood draws, different vitamins, charting and ovulation tests, money wasted on pregnancy tests. Many people at work know that my next steps are IVF as I am unable to conceive naturally but then ask me constantly when I’m sick or tired if maybe I’m pregnant. It can sting, because it’s not that simple for some of us. Best of luck to all of those TTC out there or moving forward with IVF.

    As someone currently going through fertility treatments (not at the IVF stage yet, my doctor wanted to see how I responded to IUI first), I find your videos very helpful! My doctor was really good at explaining everything, but it's SUCH a tidal wave of information that it's hard to process it all at the appointments, so having your videos to go back and rewatch helps refresh my memory on all the info I've been getting!

      RUN. Run from IUI and go to IVF. I so wish I had listened to all of the women before me and gone straight to IVF. You only have a 5-10% chance of getting pregnant with IUI. Run towards IVF, friend and BEST OF LUCK!

      @elizabethrincon1908 4 года назад

      @@theater2go Thank you! The thing is, my province covers IUI (except for prescriptions and donor material, which we'd need for IVF, anyways), but only covers one round of IVF, so it's definitely a tricky equation to find a balance to! We know IVF success rates are higher, but it's going to cost us significantly more money... whereas IUI is a lot cheaper, even if the success rates aren't as high. Right now we're leaning towards doing 3 rounds of IUI and then moving on to IVF (we're currently waitlisted for IVF anyways).

    my goodness i wish i watched this before my first round of failed IVF, my doctor saw us for 5 min each sesh and prescribed gonal and rushed us into egg retrieval, my husband has low sperm count and doc basically told him it´s fine to have up to 5 cigs a day, and never asked him to quit drinking his sugar beverages and eating processed meat prior to the process. we ended up having 5 blastocysts that stopped developing at day 4 + 5. i am going to clinic shop for a bit, taking my time, interviewing different doctors and prepare myself for the next round. thanks natalie this is so helpful!

      did you go for the second cycle yet? If still prepping, I recommend looking up Andrew Hubermann's episode on fertility and all supplements. Lots interestingly enough were covered by our fertility doc, and to the huge dislike of my partner the doc told him to quit smoking (not going to happen sadly as his first daughter with ex-partner through IVF was conceived with 5 cigs a day, but probably explained almost point of miscarriage at 4.5m!)

    • @hannieyang

      yah i did - with another clinic that better understood our needs, umm this time my husband quit smoking 3 months before egg retrieval and started taking supplements, we ended up having 2 blasts, transferred 1, did not stick, i underwent a hysteroscopy and found that i had a Y shaped uterus on top of a very endometriosis covered linings.. corrected those, and going into my second FET next month. Best luck to you! @@catherin77

    I had my first IVF appt yesterday. As crazy as it seems I was very excited and I'm very excited now. We waited a long time to get in to see our doctor and we know that we are unable to conceive naturally so we were very happy to see our fertility doctor. I think changing your mindset to see the positives in everything changes both the body and mind.

    • @MrsBees
      @MrsBees 3 года назад +1

      @@deepamanakkadavath8498 I don't know what you're asking so I answer it the best I can. The appointments are easy. every time I had a vaginal ultrasound which is painless. The shots suck. I was on several different injectable medications for 2 weeks. each med is used for a different reason and have their own side effects. mainly injection site irritation, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. The actual egg retrieval was much more painful than I expected. I thought I would be good to go the next day but I got a very common syndrome called ovarian hyperstimulation which caused an ovarian cyst and that cyst ruptured. after the egg retrieval it took me about 7-10 days to feel good again. Unfortunately we got 15 eggs but only 2 successfully grew after IVF so we are doing another round in november. I am not looking forward to it at all but I will do whatever I need to to become a mother. 3 weeks of uncomfortableness will be worth it in the end.
      If you are planning on doing IVF, talk to your work ahead of time. plan on feeling ill for about 2 weeks and then recover from surgery the next week. Maybe it wont be as bad for you as it was for me but I'd plan for the worse and hope for the best.
      hope that answered your question.

I may have some inflammation Too since I do drink and eat. I hope my transfer will be successful as I didn’t know it plays a major role. 😮

    I get leg cramps when on estrogen pills for FET (this is my 3rd FET, last 2 miscarried) told this to my doctor multiple times. He keeps saying it would be because of dehydration. Also I have a history of PCOS and endometriosis, it would have been beneficial if I was prescribed COQ10 and other supplements before the retrieval rather than telling "it must have been a poor quality embryo" every time I miscarry. Its frustrating how most of the doctors do trial and error, and give the same protocol to all the patients.

      Hello Mariam, I have PCOS . I had went through IVF cycle twice. First cycle I had 11 eggs retrieved, and three embryos made it to the five day blastocyst. All three embryos were tested and were abnormal. I decided to do a second round of IVF. Before my second cycle, I had fibroid surgery. While I was recovering from my surgery, I changed my diet. Incorporating fruits, vegetables and reducing my sugar intake. Eggs, smoothies and avocados were my best friend. I was prescribed metformin to help with the insulin resistance (PCOS). Also, I started taking Ovasitol and CoQ10. One month post surgery, I had my second retrieval. The doctor retrieved 30 eggs, and 11 embryos made it to day 5 blastocyst. Due to my age, I had all 11 embryos genetically tested. Six embryos came back normal. Because you have been diagnosed with PCOS, I highly recommend going on a strict diet. Also, as Dr Crawford mentioned, be careful what you put on and your body. I switched to skin care products that didn’t contain harmful chemicals. Wishing you success with your next cycle.

    • @tebmedtourism
      @tebmedtourism 7 месяцев назад

      Generally speaking, women over the age of 43 are not advised to undergo IVF with their own eggs due to the increased risk of chromosomal abnormalities in older eggs. These abnormalities can lead to miscarriage, birth defects, or developmental problems. However, this doesn't mean that IVF is off the table for older women or those facing other challenges.
      For women who still wish to use their own eggs, there are specialized clinics that offer IVF with donor eggs. Donor eggs come from younger women who have undergone a rigorous screening process to ensure the quality and health of their eggs. Using donor eggs can significantly improve the chances of a successful pregnancy for older women.
      Another option for women who are unable to carry a pregnancy themselves is surrogacy. Surrogacy involves a woman (the surrogate) carrying and giving birth to a baby for another couple (the intended parents). The intended parents can provide their own eggs and sperm to be fertilized and implanted in the surrogate's uterus, or they can use donor eggs, sperm, or embryos.
      IVF and surrogacy can offer hope for families who face challenges in their journey to parenthood. If you're considering these options, it's important to consult with experienced reproductive specialists to discuss your individual circumstances and explore the best path for you.

And where was the talk about the male factors, all this info is great but not everyone knows they have other issues, what about sperm dna fragmentation, high histamine levels, silent endo, auto immune issues, blood clotting factors on the Fathers side. Latent infections, alpha dq matches, sometimes you just need to be in it to find out these issues, and Karyo type what if one of you carries a balanced translocation. I love this video, but there are 2 sides to IVF, male factor is a big part of fertility issues as well.
