Hello please I'll like to ask a question, during embryo transfers is it usually ultrasound guided? Or the embryologist just inserts the embryos without it. Because my during my last transfer they did it without an ultrasound and I'm concerned that its not supposed to be so.
Every hospital is different.Some do especially in cases where a mock transfer has shown your opening is “difficult “ and some don’t so do not be concerned.

Thanks for the reply. For mine they asked me to empty my bladder before the transfer was done.
MummyNeto:
it wasn’t used during mine. All you need is a full bladder.

Is having a full bladder compulsory because I was asked to pee before the transfer was done. Because my first transfer was not successful.

I was asked to have a full bladder, I drank water until it was overfull so much that the Dr had to attach catheter to remove some of the urine .

Let’s not assume that you peed and that’s what made your first transfer unsuccessful,I had half a dozen all with full bladders and they were unsuccessful.
I advice anyone going into a treatment to discuss everything before hand with the doctor so you have all the answers you need plus time to research a second opinion.
This would reduce your anxiety and asking so many questions after the procedure about what would have been.
Good luck Mum in waiting.

Atimes, I feel the way some pple respond to post here is not okay. some of us here don't know any medical terms, even when the doctor explain, we still need to ask to get other pple options and advice, especially those that had it, what their experiences were.

I am not afraid of my doctor I pay. we ask questions to get pple experiences to also help us to ask more questions when we have appointment with doctors.

Yes my own doctor said something about reducing it, but the way he said it ( is try to reduce your carbohydrate) to me I taught that is normal thing like reduce your fatty food.

I have to still send this result to another doc to still check and she pointed it out, she just chatted me and explained that it need to be less. and it affects fertility, I was concerned, so I posted to get pple options which I am glad I did. At least I can confirm from my doctor on the medication to use to reduce it

I posted this post in diff fertility group and to my greatest surprise see comments, no body responded to me the way u did , pple shared their experiences and I even got advices. with all these comments and advices it will make me to ask my doctor more questions when next I have appointment.

pls all of us are here to seek knowledge and get pple experiences . we should endeavour to help one another, no matter how the person send the post. Thank you.

Help a curious mind, 8eggs retrieve only 2 made it to day 5, What can be done?

How is going going mama, from my testimony i had only 2 that made it also to day5, and i got pregnant and have the most handsome almost 1 year old now, so please have faith and relax your mind, your testimony is around the corner.

Please never stop using any drug without your dr's consent, prednisolone is very essential and i was on it for up to about 9weeks or so (if i remember correctly), even after you confirm bfp, so please i know the drugs are too much but it is just for a while max by 13 weeks or 14weeks you would stop taking the drugs, continuing only your prenatal drugs , you've got this mama

I ended up not taking it during my cycle, but when it was being considered, 3 sessions was recommended 2 before egg transfer and 1 after, i didn't bother to check any pharmacy as i the hospital was to administer it.

Did your clinic give you the option to buy outside and take it to the clinic to administer it?

I would say ask any big pharmacy around you for cost and if they administer it also.

Am the one that introduce the prenisolone not the doctor,this hospital I never get to meet the owner. Am just looking up to God
Am just concerned maybe there is another drug that contains same active item to prenisolone that is among the ones given.the young doctor there is always irritate at any questions, to see him too is war we all work with the nurses.
My regards to our handsome boy. Can wait to have someone like him beside me.this life is too lonely with children
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Peachesarewhite: 10:15pm On Feb 23, 2023
Whata the name of the hospital? Why should he be irritated? Its your money and have the right to ask ANY questions. I think you should request to see the main doctor. As much as its God that makes a procedure a success, We also want to cross all T's, and dot all the I's.
Nobody wants to waste his/her money. Its a lot of money...haba

Some hospitals don't add prenisolone to their routine and I know mamas that added on their own too, so you are not the first, but just follow the appropriate prescription and dosage for it and you know you don't stop it abruptly, you must gradually wean yourself off it.

You can ask the nurses if it is a part of your medication given to you. Don't mind all those Dr when it not that they are doing you a favour or it free of charge, I mean you are paying for their service and that's why they are still in business

All the best sis
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Timitoyo: 5:02pm On Feb 24, 2023
When I was to change hospital after 2 trials , one thing I made sure of is easy access to the Dr, if I can't reach him on phone or WhatsApp to ask questions then it's a no no for me since I don't stay in the same state as the hospital so can't walk in. This was the determinant when I chose A over B in Abuja . I can't pay and not have my questions answered appropriately, sufficiently and on time .

Is mostly 3 sessions, 2 to be given before transfer, remaining to be administered when you must have tested positive. Also note that it comes in percentage and milligrams. so when buying buy 20% in 100mill undiluted please. Your doc will advice you better. You can pm me, I will link you you up with a pharmacist that sells.
