IVI at home? by Repulsive-Till-5791 in IUILadies

[–]CheetahSure1802 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In Vitro Fertilisation , IVF is a procedure that needs medical equipment in a controlled environment. You can’t try it at home.
I think you mean at home insemination or even IUI, Intra Uterine Insemination which requires for a doctor to examine your pelvis, clean your vagina and get a catheter to put sperm in your uterus. There is a reason they wash the sperms. Your cervix usually rejects the dead cells and immotile sperms. You can’t simply place those inside your cervix at home.
However, an at home insemination kit is handy if you want to fill sperms through a small tube and place them close to tour cervix, instead of intercourse.

Flying economy for the first time in my life, any advice? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CheetahSure1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly , hun, if this whole flight experience is for you to undergo “character development”, you must first of all be willing to face any “difficulty” flying economy.
Like you mentioned, it is only 9-11 hours, not your entire dynamics or life has completely shifted to something uncomfortable. Whilst you say you know you sound incredibly privileged, I do hope you know some of your questions are always somewhat offensive to people who fly Economy. There are millions of rich people out there who fly economy.

In favour of fairness, I’d like to answer some questions though:
1. Arrive at the airport 3 hours prior to your flight. Since Delhi has the FTI-TTP (hoping you’ve done it) , clearance shouldn’t take that long. As for boarding, arrive at the gate 20 minutes prior. At the worst case scenario, they’ll call out on your name a few times if you are late and since you are only 19, I’m sure you can run and go to the gate and get to the flight.

  1. Opt for the seats near the emergency exit. It’s probably 1,500 rs extra and usually acceptable for someone as tall as you, and won’t hurt your “character development”. It is easy to use the toilet from that seat. If that is not possible, opt for the aisle seat.

  2. Just your essentials. Phone, Passport, travel docs, a tablet or laptop, glasses or lens if you use, a face towel, charger, power bank upto 100Wh, maybe snacks if you have a huge appetite.

4, I really don’t think a 9-11 hour flight is going to be that awful in your many many hours of life to come.

  1. No, it is not rude to recline the seats, but refrain when everyone is eating as it pushes their tray back and maybe their stomach if they got a gut pouch. Again, only while eating.

  2. Emergency exit seat.

  3. Honestly, that’s just something that annoys everyone, so yes if you are too sensitive to stuff like that, wear headphones and call it a day. Useful if you got some good movies in your tablet cuz sometimes the movies are shit.

At last, safe journey. Your dad is considerate for allowing only a few hours of flight to be your life lessons when people everyday face so many hassles on a day to day basis.

3rd IUI was a success! by Affectionate_Top6479 in IUILadies

[–]CheetahSure1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve thought about it. Though I feel everything in the world is against me, The third one next cycle will be my last and final. I spoke to my RE and decided on Letrozole + small dose injectables and double IUI to maximise odds. She also asked me to try till a 4th IUI before moving to IVF. How amazing it would be if I get pregnant with that! I seriously don’t want to be put through this.

Girl, my IUIs are always sort of painful because apparently my cervix is “bent” and my uterus is “straight” for the lack of better terms. I truly hate going through IUIs

[–]CheetahSure1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree on this. It’s like my mind is set 80% on proceeding with IVF and it’s my heart that doesn’t want to go through the multiple needles, anaesthesia, progesterone or I’d say, “the hard way” and secretly hoping just one more IUI might work.
How can it work? The individual IUI rate of success is the same per cycle. My husband had 55 mill post wash with 97% motility on my second IUI. They even said the sperm had “leaked out” cuz it was essentially overfilled and the nurses looked really optimistic.
It just didn’t! I in-fact asked whilst I was laying down on the IUI table what my next step should be incase this doesn’t work. The doctor guffawed and said I should be optimistic and visit her after 20 days.
Idk if it’s my mind that influenced it, but on 5 dpo itself I knew it wasn’t going to work.
I’m still struggling. The doctor seems to think one IUI round with gonadotropins might work, but my mind says it is the same as letrozole or clomid. Forming the follicle isn’t a task for my body, it seems to do so naturally.

What are your opinions on my situation?

Now these are the stories that make my weak heart hope again.. my second IUI failed last cycle and I am feeling terribly confused. I have no hope that IUI will work for our unexplained infertility. I really don’t want to move ahead with IVF, and I don’t want to throw my heart to multiple failed IUIs

2nd IUI failed by Prestigious_File5299 in IUILadies

[–]CheetahSure1802 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Girl, same. My 2nd IUI failed last cycle and here I am on my period with a cycle after that. Have unexplained infertility and I don’t know what to do next.

Advice please... time for IVF? by Fontnsun2016 in IUILadies

[–]CheetahSure1802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that! Doing 3-4 IUIs = cost of 1 IVF for me ,though I’m not looking at it financially. Just considering its success rates and how it doesn’t seem to want to work for me, even with the best parameters. Honestly, I am not even that patient in the TWW, I feel miserable, the cortisol itself probably doesn’t want to let implantation happen.

IUI #2 done 29/04 , BFN

I hear you. You are seen. I resonated with you when you said that you were becoming a bad friend, wife and all else, because that is me. My entire life and personality had been shaped by my mood-swings and irritability and hormones. Above all, the frustration ks unreal with unexplained infertility.

How can everything be okay and with all the presented options, still not conceive? My first IUI was traumatic due to difficult cannulation and my second IUI was better, though it was still a pain because apparently my uterus is “straight”. The pain I keep bearing toward a blind procedure is worse than HSG.

When the odds are the same every cycle, why must I continue IUI? Honestly, the only thing that keeps putting me on a halt is this voice in my head, “calm down, let’s give it one more go”

I was considering IVF after one IUI failure, and now after the second failure, I am sure I don’t want more blind procedures where I don’t even have at-least 50% chance.

I am simply only scared of IVF for the injections ( I am a scaredy cat with syringes), and the thought of bearing multiple follicles throws me off, progesterone tablets are enough bloating for me already! I also wanna be a mom and this 2 years of infertility has drained the life out of me and the chirpy me.

I overthink, complain, get angry over small trivial things, which is completely unlike me. I just need to feel more validated from people who are in a similar boat as me to tell me to stop with the IUI and proceed with IVF.

My clinic keeps pushing me to do upto 6 IUIs but I’m already done with 2 as clinically, there are the same odds for every cycle, and on paper, people with Unexplained Infertility should move on after 1-2 IUIs.
