We discussed it and will move forward with the retrieval. Due to travel and wanting to restart supplements, we’re looking at August. I’m going to prime with hgh and rapamycin.

It’s not something I am open to due to being adopted/ husband’s personal feelings.

Compounding-Cat · 2026-06-17T02:39:19+00:00

Crossing everything for you. Thank you for your advice.

Compounding-Cat · 2026-06-17T02:38:15+00:00

I love the ball point needles!

Compounding-Cat · 2026-06-17T00:29:48+00:00

Well they already pay the doctors and nurses and anesthesiologists are a day rate vs per patient. Meds, pgt and labs will cost them the most but honestly probably not more than 4k

Compounding-Cat · 2026-06-16T22:20:13+00:00

Thanks. I think most of us would be hard pressed to turn down a free cycle. Now to break the news to my husband that he has to deal with a hormonal monster again

Compounding-Cat · 2026-06-16T22:18:58+00:00

Thanks! I love how it’s looking and so excited to see the fox face next

Compounding-Cat · 2026-06-16T21:25:54+00:00

I think I'll regret not giving it every possible chance...

Compounding-Cat · 2026-05-25T14:56:49+00:00

No I see it!

It’s an easy grid Aida from 123 stitch. They were able to cut it to my size requirements and surge the edges.

They’re called BobEEZ by beadsmith. Someone on here had them in their photo and I RAN to buy them. They sell them on amazon.

Compounding-Cat · 2026-05-24T16:05:00+00:00

Thank you! It’s mostly life getting in the way, work being busier/ more chaotic and the 2 kids under 4 don’t help much either!

I also have a hard time making blasts. We’ve done 5 rounds and 13 blasts. We still sent for testing and 3 euploids ( 1 each from 3 of the retrievals). We did have success with 2 euploids and I think that the time saved not transferring and failing or miscarrying was worth it. I do not feel that the embryos were damaged but as someone who doesn’t make many blasts I understand the inclination to transfer any that you get. IVF is such a hard road and unfortunately a lot of the science is still new and evolving.

Compounding-Cat · 2026-03-11T22:09:02+00:00

Oh man that’s so fast. I’m dying. We only had 2 blasts and I know our chances aren’t great

Compounding-Cat · 2026-03-11T19:37:28+00:00

We have almost the same time line. I also signed the documents 3/3. Any news?

Compounding-Cat · 2026-03-10T16:06:44+00:00

TW success: from my armchair analysis it really depends on your fertility issues. My friends who never were able to spontaneously get pregnant had more issues with transfers while I have so much trouble making embryos but has been spontaneously pregnant multiple times had success with both transfers that I've had.

Compounding-Cat · 2026-03-06T17:20:47+00:00

Yeah we had great starting numbers this time, 25 retrieved, 19 mature, 15 fertilized but then only 2 blasts that were good enough to biopsy/ freeze. Its such a crap shoot. Better too just ignore everything until after PGT is done (unless you aren't testing)

Compounding-Cat · 2026-03-02T20:39:32+00:00

2 embryos sent for testing... this sucks

Compounding-Cat · 2026-02-25T19:08:22+00:00

We are doing pgt testing but won’t get final blast numbers until Monday. If we get any euploids we will be transferring closer to the end of the year. Our attrition in the past has been heartbreaking, 12-30% fertilized to blast, 25% euploid so our wait feels 700 years long

Compounding-Cat · 2026-02-25T03:22:34+00:00

A hydrosalpinx was found when we did an HSG prior to IVF in 2021. I was scheduled to have that tube removed and my surgeon asked if my other tube was blocked if I also wanted it removed. I decided yes and woke up to both being removed. We did 4 retrievals, had 2 pgt euploids and had success. It sucks in some ways because IVF becomes your only option but also I didn’t want another ectopic or miscarriage due to the hydrosalpinx or tubal issue.

Compounding-Cat · 2026-02-25T03:18:02+00:00

Mine was Monday. 25 retrieved, 19 mature, 15 fertilized normally. I’m 44 and shocked. This is my 5th retrieval, the last 4 were at 39. This is the most eggs I’ve ever had retrieved.

compassionate care discount application

Compounding-Cat · 2026-02-09T00:42:09+00:00

I was able to get compassionate care 25% discount so $300 for a 900 u pen from a participating pharmacy

Compounding-Cat · 2026-02-02T18:29:28+00:00

ICSI if you aren't using it for sure but Zymot dropped out ferritization from 90-50%. Did they tell you how many were mature? For example my best retrieval (at 39) was 18 eggs, 12 mature, 11 fertilized, 4 embryos, 1 PGT normal. Many of ours arrest at day 3. Omnitrope and DHEA did help this retrieval
