I RUN A FERTILITY CCENTRE AT AMUWO-ODOFIN, LAGOS. AT KINGSWILL SPECIALIST HOSPITAL. THE SIDE EFFECTS YOU TALKED ABOUT ARE NOT SO COMMON AMONGST PATIENTS ON STIMULATION.THE RETRIEVAL IS USUALLY DONE UNDER SOME DEGREE OF ANESTHESIA, SO YOU ARE NOT EXPECTED TO FEEL PAINS. IT LASTS LESS THAN AN HOUR. THE EMBRYO TRANSFER IS DONE WITHOUT SEDATION. YOU MAY FEEL A MILD DISCOMFORT WHILE THE SPECULUM IS BEING INSERTED. THE TRANSFER ITSELF IS USUALLY PAINFREE AT MY CENTRE. THE SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAMME BEGINS FROM YOUR INITIAL CONSULTATION TO THE TRANSFER.

Hello everyone,hope we all are doing good by God's grace.
AFM, I went today for an U/S after 9days of stimulation with fostimon and my ovaries r doing pretty well.Follicles forming and the least measures 15mm. My RE says I may trigger on with pregnyl on Saturday based on my blood work on Saturday so retrieval can be on Monday.I need your prayers dear sisters.
I HAVE FAITH BECAUSE MY FATHER SAYS I SHOULD BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD
Baby dust to everyone.

Ladies I've read from many blogs that pineapple contains a substance called bromelain which helps to improve implantation. I would like to know if anyone have an idea on this and if true when can I start eating it- after retrieval or transfer and for how long as I've also read that too much of it is not good because it's acidic.God bless all

That's fab ! The eggies are doing well if the least is 15mm.
Pineapple core (that's d hard part in the middle has the highest level of bromelain. S'posed to b taken on transfer day and like 4 days after. Brazil nuts (and all nuts in general )is also supposed to be helpful

Pls, how many days did you down regulate and how many days did your stimulation take? Thanks.

@Ebube, thanks. Dr asked me to use coq10 and pregnacare but I don't like pregnacre so I bought well woman plus (with omega 3-6-9). He also talked of aspirin and m2tone but aspirin is for old people and those suffering from high blood pressure. I told him no.

Nne aspirin isn't just for high blood pressure. 75 mg aspirin (baby aspirin) helps with blood circulation ergo more blood to uterus ergo healthier lining. Me I even used viagra (insertion) for lining
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Ebube2014: 10:31am On Nov 09, 2014
@Olubankemi Please Aspirin is very important. Like Lady G said it helps with blood circulation to your reproductive system. Basically the same thing it does for old people. Its important because there will be more blood circulation to your ovaries which will mean better egg quality and quantity and also a thicker and a healthier Uterus. So please go right now and get some and start taking once a day.
Again is well woman a prenatal vitamin? Please make sure it has Folic acid and Ferrous Sulfate.

@henmaris it is well. Please make sure you get a lot of rest and pray. God will do it for u. We will keep praying for you.

@Lady G biko what is womb scratching? Is it Hysteroscopy.

@Lady G biko what is womb scratching? Is it Hysteroscopy.
Lol. Its believed to aid implantation in women with multiple failed ivfs. Its a mild mild form of curetage or simply scratching. The procedure is so mild some hospitals use soft catetar for it. The upper uterine lining is scratched to allow healthier growth. Fruitful mum did it before her ivf. Jus google endometrial scratch sha
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by VENUSS(f): 11:51am On Nov 09, 2014
@Olubankemi, please do as your doctor says. He seems to know what his doing. All you mentioned will help you with good eggs ooo and healthy uterus. Which hospital are you using? All the best dear. Lol'd at aspirin for old women, did you tell that to your doctor? Check your wellwoman pack to see if it contains; inositol, l'arginine and selenium. If it doesn't pls go for pregnacAre conception they are produce by same coy. Just ignore the side effect and look at the price ahead.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Ebube2014: 12:50pm On Nov 09, 2014

Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Fruitfulmum: 5:30pm On Nov 09, 2014
Am sure what ur doc was giving u was baby aspirin that's a low dose 75g aspirin that help to increas blood flow to the uterus. This helps with the lining of the uterus and further enhance implantation.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by beauty4ashes: 5:44pm On Nov 09, 2014

Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Ebube2014: 7:08pm On Nov 09, 2014
@beauty4ashes Amen ooohhh.

@Glo2glory Aspirin should be taken from when you start cycling till about 10weeks pregnant depending on your doctor. It will helps prevent miscarriage in some women with clotting issues so that's why they advice to take till almost end of first trimester.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Fruitfulmum: 12:46am On Nov 10, 2014
@glo when I started cycling but becos I was an ulcer patient I took it one day on and three days off but after I confirmed my bfp I stopped because I already started having ulcer pain in my stomach .it is well with u ijn God has already perfected ur miracle ijn.

And to all those cycling presently God will answer for u this yr will not come to an end without ur testimony

My dear I took decapeptyl (a form of lupron) for 3months and in the last week of the third month I started stimulation.I stimulated for 12days.Unfortunately I have bad news,my cycle has been cancelled. The retrieval could not be done because this morning I had a sudden high fever 40+.Feeling down now,why today.But I know the God I serve had a reason for everything.till January before I will begin another cycle because my clinic is closed in December.God have mercy

Hi fruitfulmum and all the mamas in the house. Please can you all help with a comprehensive list of drugs that are to be taken before IVF proper. I hope to start my cycle in February. Apart from pregnacare conception, what other drugs help to increase egg quality. I had severe OHSS my last cycle so I want to see if I can escape it this time. Thanks.

Hello fruitful mamas! It's been a while I visited here and I congratulate/celebrate with all d mum's God has visited. I want to also encourage as many people as there are in the waiting room, don't lose hope,dont give up! Do everything positively humanly possible except giving up!
If God can do it for my former boss at the age of 45yrs with fibroids and so many other issues she was diagnosed with. Why not us?
It is well even in the well...
