This was so helpful and informative! We have had one successful IUI and are trying for a second child via IVF. because our 1st doctor was swamped, we switched doctors and our IVF failed. Only after watching this video did I realize how little our second doctor (who oversaw our failed IVF) explained each step to us. We would get blood tests constantly but never have a breakdown of the doctor saying "we're looking for A, B, and C with this test, and here's where you should fall within parameters." Never, before or after blood tests. He would simply say " ok, we're close but not yet" or "next week we'll extract". I'm rambling but I just wish all doctors could explain in layman's terms and have the grace and patience to do so, I feel I would've had to opportunity to decide to wait, and try when the test results were more favorable.
@fertilityspace so my afc on my initial ultrasound was only 6. Just had my cd3 bloodwork done. My fsh was 20 and my amh is still pending. I'm 29 and my doctor is leaning toward DOR and we're going right to IVF- which we are fine with I'm just worried my body won't respond well and I won't get any eggs😭
@@kniccole thanks for the update! Women who are younger than 35 tend to have great egg quality, so a few eggs might be all you need! Hope you see plenty of follicles as you progress through the cycle! 🤞💕
Hello Dr, thank you for your informative video. My question is, if I test on day 4 of my menstrual cycle, is that not acceptable to get FSH and the other hormones results? Thank you
Do those fertility at home testing kits work like the fsh strips ? For the last couple of months I have been wanting to get day 3 testing done but my period keeps arriving on a Thursday and labs in my area are closed on day 3 Sundays I'm 40 years old ttc for over 10 months
Hello I’m 45 years old I have six kids oldest is 26 youngest is 11 years old. I tested my fsh and it’s 5.64 can I still get pregnant naturally with normal periods? I had a miscarriage 5 months ago I was 11 weeks pregnant. I didn’t want anymore babies but after the miscarriage I want another baby. Does my fsh sound good I tested 6 days before my period?
Very informated video. Thanks. Mam I have 8eggs (size20-22 mm). They are not fertilized yet coz my husband is in Manhattan right now. What r the chances of a live birth, When they will be fertilized ? Please help. I'm 36.
Great question! These are all usually done on Day 3 for convenience. FSH and LH need to be tested on Day 2 or 3 of your period. You can read more about fertility testing here: fertilityspace.io/blog/fertility-testing-for-women-how-infertility-is-diagnosed
@@Pabloinandout great question! You can actually test AMH at any time in your menstrual cycle! You don’t have to wait for a specific day to test AMH because it doesn’t fluctuate throughout the cycle like some of the other hormones do.
I have an irregular period since I started I'm now 36 and my fsh level is 23.8 and my lh level is 5.7. I was told I have pcos will I be able to have children
