I had ohss but mine started after transfer I.e late ohss, even though I had a successful cycle it was an unpleasant experience I don’t wish on anyone.

I like that you Dr is considering moving the transfer forward, that will give your body enough time to heal and rest. Ohss is usually aggravated with hcg so chances are that it will get worse if you decide to go ahead with transfer and then get a bfp.

Are your embryos day5 blastocysts?
Though a frozen egg transfer cycle involves additional cost but it is advisable cos even with ohss you will still spend to treat it if you decide to go ahead with ET and the stress on you body and health is not worth it

All the best sis

I think anytime between 4weeks - 6weeks after surgery to let your site heal first before it is administered so it doesn’t interfere with the healing process, you can also include gentle massage Of surgery site after 6weeks nothing too intense ooo pls

I had myomectomy too 6 months before my Ivf cycle, I was considering taking serrapeptase too but ended not taking it and only did gentle self massages occasionally like 1-2months before my ivf cycle.

I wish you all the best sis

I don't have experience with ohss. I just want to congratulate you on your good fertilization report. Having 12 embryos is awesome. I hope they all make it to day 5 blastocysts.
I heard coconut water/juice (not the milk, pls) is very good for ohss.

Best of luck sis.

Thanks so much for your response. Yes they are 5 day blastocyst. Which is tomorrow. Doc said he will run a scan first, which will determine if we will go ahead or not.

Could you request freezing of the embryos you wont use? 12 is a lot to just waste and it would be less easy to get high grade eggs as one ages.

But I think it would still be much cheaper than a fresh cycle should one need to recycle in the future.

Were you on any supplements before the procedure?

Yes you are right.
Yes they placed me on vit E, folic acid, cyclogest, vasosprin, lupron injection, 2 weeks before my new cycle. Personally I've been on vit E, vit D, omega oil, few months before

Thanks mama. Those ones you took personally few months before the procedure must have contributed immensely. But I must confess that such a fantastic outcome from just these three supplements is mind blowing. Congratulations once again and best wishes in your transfer. It almost seem as if once you make it to the transfer stage with primecare, your bfp is already loading. You're good to go already dear. Baby dust on you.

I was surprised too, because our challenge was male factor, so i didn't really put in lots of effort in taking supplements. My hubby was my main focus

No reason in particular, I was just tired of taking too many drugs and by the time I was ready mentally it was too close to when I started prepping for my ivf cycle plus my Dr did sonohystergram and everything looked good so I was cautious not to do anything to jeopardise the ivf procedure

I didn't use castor oil and for the life of me I can't really remember what I used, I think it was coconut oil cos it was not an intense massage, I was just very gentle on my body all through most importantly I prayyyeeeedddd and made confessions over my body, every drug and every thing else I did

Hello mama,I am here with my second cycle update,sadly it didnt go well as planned,yesterday was supposed to be my retrieval day but I woke up to the news that it wasnt done cos my follicles has turned into cyst,so doctor couldn't retrieve because of the fear of harvesting just one or two which may not be of good quality.To tell you I felt devastated yesterday was an understatement,my first cycle in july,I got 7 good eggs,so this time around I decided to be on q10,vit E and C,folic acid just to improve the quality of my eggs since the first didn't implant.
It's so sad that this cycle had to end this way.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by MummyNeto(f): 11:01am On Nov 17, 2021
Thats very fair, during my cycle 37 were collected and 24 fertilized, we wanted to freeze and they quoted 430k for 6 months :', we had to discard them, how I wish I got a fair price like yours. It pains me anytime I remember it. I just thank God we got twins from the cycle, I don't know what I would I have done if not for God's mercy.(

Hmmmm, my story with medisson, she said I had cyst and that the quality won't be good, that my only option is donor egg. I showed her my amh result that I'm an excessive responder she no gree o,how my right ovary is twisted and can't be accessed, that it's up above my uterus, I went back to omini, he said it's a follicular cyst and that the right ovary was behind my uterus, which can be accessed too, we went ahead to have a successful cycle. Please try and use another hospital in your next cycle. Sorry for your experience.
