This was VERY GOOD!! Thank you for putting this video out there. Our first cycle of IVF we ended up with the 1 egg we had to do a fresh transfer and then we had 1 that we froze to use at a later date. I wish what I know now then, because I would NEVER do a fresh transfer not being able to genetically test in time. So we ended up going through pregnancy 3 months before losing the baby and the office neglected to let us know that the frozen embryo was abnormal....I could have bypassed this miscarriage all in all if i froze both eggs to find out they were abnormal. Again you are being thrown so much information at you and in the very beginning I never knew if I was coming or going. So to all the woman out there deciding to do fresh or frozen, definitely go with FROZEN :) I will save you the turmoil. It was very very very rough for me to go through this miscarriage when ultimately it didnt need to happen the way it did. I wish my doctor was more thorough and explained the differences between them more clearly. So thank you Dr. Lora to putting this very put together video for the rest of us :) :) I thank you very much.
@@AmandaR08thank you ❤ I keep coming up with abnormal eggs. I recently went through our 3rd retrieval and got 1 normal. Now we will do another egg retrieval(s) to try to bank more if possible. Trying to stay positive and hopeful throughout this whole thing! ❤
@@hoguemygoshitsheddathank you for explaining this. It gives me more prospectives. I was just told I have one tube and it was totally blocked so my only hope now is IVF. Still looking for money but I am educating myself as much as I can.
Had my first meeting with my new clinic on the 25th of September, was pregnant 6 weeks later. I've had a few rounds prior to going to a new clinic. But everything was super quick
We had a perfect baby boy 🥰 injected for 9 days and had 2 embryos make it to day 5, one being our little boy, worth it all. We had a few rounds of icsi but we moved to another clinic and first round worked
First round took 4 months. Second round (3 years later) took 8 months. The longest period is getting the referrals, waiting list for specialist, doing all the tests, waiting for results, scans, getting your protocol, nurse education. And a hundred and one consent forms!
Today I was done hycosy on CD 6 with 5 eggs in each ovary. I also got an appointment for a fertility consultation for IVF/ Icsi. I really hope that this type of treatment will work for us ❤
So helpful~ thank you so much for the information! I don’t know if my clinic just doesn’t want to overwhelm me so they don’t tell me most of the things. But for someone who’s total control freak, I rather know everything and be as prepared as I possibly could which made me feel a lot better to know where things at and have the most reasonable expectations. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 I’m gonna do my egg retrieval the first time next week…
My IVF process took me one year to complete, and ended up with a missed miscarriage. One year for one round doesn’t encourage me to go for second round.
Im so sorry! I feel your pain. All of this is so unfair to us knowing we are the ones that want to be mom's so bad and we have to spend so much time and not to mention money just to end up being saddened by news like that. I am sending you hugs because I am in the same boat.
I just had my first egg retrieval yesterday and there was no eggs at all, We have followed everything that nurses instructed us. Don’t know what could have gone wrong. Had another blood test after retrieval.hopefully we get answer this coming Wednesday. The logistic and emotional roller coaster of doing IVF.
Some experts say it may be that the trigger injection did not trigger ovulation hence the reason why all follicles were empty at the time of retrieval. 😢 if you had already ovulated, the follicles themselves and progesterone levels would show that. So your doctor should not be guessing that, unfortunately 😢 hugs to you
@@drlorashahine Hello Doctor . Is it possible to have a video consultation with you? I live in a small town in Wyoming and have found you to be the best help so far with information.
very informative video, my dr did not gave me any pre-medication before stimulation, because he said i had good amount of eggs, in the end managed to get 12 mature egg, did Zymot for sperm, but only 3 embryos managed to biopsy for PGTM testing, we were expecting more egg, but oh well...now praying hard, we have some good result.
I'm so grateful to live in Europe when "checking insurance cover" is not part of this process because insurance is not needed for IVF treatment. However understanding the time line is super helpful 😊
I live in Europe but there are waiting lists and I’m not gonna wait so people who can afford it in my country do it in private clinics it makes a big difference. In countries like Germany and other more developed countries hospitals look better and they probably are better 😅
Well Romania doesnt cover IVF, it totally out of your own pocket and UK has 1-3 years waiting time IF you qualify for it. If not, private is the way to go
Thank you Lord he lead me here me and my husband is trying to have a baby and our doctor suggest us for ivf.since my age and my eggs is on a boarderline❤❤❤thank you for the information dr.lora❤❤❤❤
@Lefty1x Hi 👋🏽 it went well. We are currently 9 weeks pregnant. 🙌🏽It was our first cycle . My advice is for you both is to stay positive and hope for the best. The medications can be tiresome at times, but it's for a greater purpose. ✨️ wishing you both the best.
Very informative video! 1st time doing IVF egg retrieval done 3 weeks ago! They have frozen the embryo! Waiting to transfer in couple of months- praying to get success! Very difficult process continuously feeling unwell! They have retrieved 13 eggs, 3 of them were fertilised. Do I have a hope Dr Lora?
i got my tubes tied by cauterization when i was 20/21 i had 2 healthy pregnancies …im 32 been with my husband 9 years and we would love to have a baby but nowadays no one is doing tubal reversal especially cauterized would doing IVF route work for me i need some hope 😇🙏🤞🏼
I got my tubes tied when I was 24, back in 2009. My husband and I decided to do ivf back in 2022. We have a healthy baby boy. So yes, it is possible to become pregnant again via IVF
It depends on many factors but sometimes doctors recommend treatment with laparoscopy or with medication like Lupron to quiet inflammation before embryo transfer - not always❤️
Dear Doctor Lora: I am about to start a second IVF cycle. I have consulted a fertility endocrinologist that told me not to take a second round of ovary stimulation based on my hormonal levels, PCOS and age FSH 8.01mUI/ml LH 17.3mUI/ml AMH 14.9ng/ml 36 year old. She says I could get over stimulated on the process and it could even be dangerous for me. On the other hand the doctor at the fertility clinic tells me this is totally nonsense and I am young and healthy enough for a second round with my own eggs. We are very much confused!!! What do you think? Thanks a lot :) Greetings from Mexico City (Willing to pay for consultation when necessary)
My first appointment with my clinic was October. I had a small tumor in my pituitary gland that caused my prolactin to be elevated and then month later my Thyroid had issues. Plus 2 months wait for my insurance authorization. I’m finally starting next month this! Took 7 months.
Hello there, I have the same problem , tumor in the pituitary gland 😔 I’m doing treatment cos the prolactina and tsh went crazy , how is your process going ?
Just wanted to say your videos are so well done and you are so articulate and informative thank you for putting videos out to the.public!! We are on our first round of ivf.We have male infetility. My husband had his daughter through IVF 15 years ago and I have a son and my amh levels are 2.29 which is great however my problem is I'm already 38 and we were told we should get pregnant on the first round . Do you think it is wise to transfer 2 embryos at my age for success?!?

Thank you for watching. It’s using small doses of lupron to get the pituitary gland to ‘flare’ and release its own gonadotropins to help with egg recruitment
Wow..Dr Lora, I am a man and believe me when I say you did justice to the topic. My dumb question as a man who is also planing to start IVF process with my wife is, since there are so much uncertainty about the process, can an IVF patient increase their chances of getting pregnant by seeking IVF treatment from different clinics at same time?

I have been on the pill for one year and only take the active pills to avoid bleeding. We are starting ivf and I am wondering do I keep taking them until the appt? Or should I just stop now. It will be 2 months when we start our appts.
No strict medical opinion but if I were you as a patient - I’d stop now to see what my own periods are doing, get data before the visit and if you conceive - awesome. Unless of course you don’t want to get pregnant then ignore this❤️

I have a lot of content on the subject on this channel, website drlorashahine.com, TH-cam and Instagram account @drlorashahine that are great sources for you. Thank you for watching Megan
I’m afraid if they do me wrong
Using different semen is that’s possible can happen dr ??
And is it possible to do dna test while pregnant ?

It is possible, but apparently something they're cautious about
I have been on the pill for one year and only take the active pills to avoid bleeding. We are starting ivf and I am wondering do I keep taking them until the appt? Or should I just stop now. It will be 2 months when we start our appts.
No strict medical opinion but if I were you as a patient - I’d stop now to see what my own periods are doing, get data before the visit and if you conceive - awesome. Unless of course you don’t want to get pregnant then ignore this❤️
