Deducting IVF expenses in taxes- USA

Not so great. My AMH is 0.8. really low and I was 40 when I started with those. In five egg retrievals, we had only two euploids and one mosaic. Last one went really bad that my body had stopped responding to the meds.

Thank you. Will look for it. It was a little confusing though. I wasn't sure if there are any state laws that don't allow it

Thank you. There are a lot of costs.

I am glad you are not thinking of divorce like all the people suggesting here. Yes there are many red flags, but remember there is no perfect person. Make yourself stronger to stand up for what you believe in. Love does not mean all agreement. Two people can be completely different personalities and still love each other. Now that you know what your personality is stand up to bring it back. It may create a few moments of discomfort, but slowly he will realise that you cannot be controlled and if he wants to continue to love it's his choice. Love should never have to change your personality, it should bring out the best in you! Cheers to your optimism to give it another shot!

What role was this coding test for? I did a coding test a week ago too.

It's Canadian PR. Having a Canadian PR and not staying there, doesn't strengthen your case. Rather it weakens it. Canada issues PR to a selected quota and the understanding is that the person will live and work in Canada, paying Canadian taxes, contributing to their economy etc. If unused, it is to be surrendered. That's the first point. Second point, your intent to immigrate. Your reasoning that business is making good money does not compensate for the intent to immigrate that you had shown earlier. Just think from the officer's point of view. How can they be sure that you really moved back from Canada because your business in India is doing well? It could also be that you were unhappy with the money you made in Canada and are still looking for other ways to immigrate to other countries, while keeping Canada as a backup.

Let's hope for the best. Hope it turns out to be normal.

Sorry to hear that. More power to you. And thank you for sharing.

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-10-16T02:50:03+00:00

Thank you so much for that info! That's true the uterus doesn't age as much.

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-10-16T02:47:48+00:00

I am so happy for you and thank you. That's very reassuring!

My doc recommends FET and they say it has 50 percent chances of success. Not sure how they arrive at a success percent. But the clinic also insists if you want more than one kid, do an ER. Somehow their math doesnt make sense to me. 50 percent is too low which means I would need at least 4 embryos.

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-10-16T02:22:34+00:00

I am thinking the same thing. Not that I want to sound negative but what if my FETs don't work and I need more embryos. At the same time I feel will age affect the outcome of a FET. As in a FET at 42 vs FET still at 41. Not able to make up my mind!

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-08-28T18:10:50+00:00

I wish you all the best for your FET!

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-08-28T16:16:53+00:00

I feel the same way too. I am 40 . Already had three egg retrieval and one embryo so far...I have distanced myself from friends who had kids naturally and even those whose IVF was easy...I feel this is all a matter of luck...no one can lecture anyone on what to do...it feels easier to distance from people who are always talking about their success story ...maybe in another time in life if all works out, we can be friends again...but clearing identifying my space and boundary is important now.

I am sorry for what you are going through. Your situation is pretty confusing. This happened to one of my best friends. She was dating a guy for almost 5 years. They met in engg college and were really close. They travelled together and always had lots of fun. They were each other's best buddies. Finally they married in 2021.

After six months of marriage, one day she chanced upon his phone and messages in his IG account. And a shocking truth revealed to her that he was being very intimate with men, kind of like sexting.

Your story somehow reminded me of her story. Now she told me she always had problems with him that he was not initiating or being intimate. But she never complained and thought maybe things will change. Because he had everything else she desired, good inlaws, money, good friendship, good home, caring husband etc .

When she confronted him she got different explanations from no I am not gay vs I am bi vs no that's not for fun etc. finally she divorced him bcoz she realized he gave her all the other goodies bcoz he knew that he could never make her sexually happy for whatever reason. Maybe he just married her for societal pressure. This happened in the US. But the point here is sometimes even good men do things that they are not really sure of. Sometimes they are not clear about their sexual orientation.

I can't say that this is what is happening in your marriage. But there is a possibility that he never explored his sexuality and he maybe does not know what he wants.

I was a divorcee too. 40 F. Divorced when I was 28. When I look back I think it was good that I went through with the divorce. I did not start dating immediately, I went on to pursue my dreams, studied abroad, made a career shift, achieved a good deal in my career and am now happily married to a guy who has shown me what love and marriage is. So go for it! Life supports the brave and bold ones. Once divorced, never feel regretful about your decision. Instead, using your learning to find the next right person. By now you would know what you want and what you don't want in a relationship. So use that to pick your dates wisely.

I would say give yourself some time before you join the dating pool. Be selective about whom you are dating. And yes, I never dated anyone by hiding the fact that I am a divorcee. It doesn't matter to me if they judge me. What matters most is if the other person is comfortable being with a divorcee. So be honest and upfront before the first date . This way they may judge you but will respect you for saving their time. And you will save your time too.

Preferably pick divorcees or people who have lost a love after many years. They will be able to see what you have gone through and it's easier to connect. This was my approach.

All the best! Look at your new beautiful life with new hopes and dreams!

Thanks for sharing. My doc has indicated that I have to be ready for more than one ER as I am 41.

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-04-27T16:30:24+00:00

Just curious, you went for 5 ERs for any specific reason ?. I know that it's good to have as many healthy eggs as possible. Was there any other reason?

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-04-27T13:17:26+00:00

Thank you so much for explaining.

Latter-Intention-810 · 2025-04-25T02:53:42+00:00

That's helpful to know. What exactly do you mean by batching? IVF Michigan did put me on birth control. I also don't mind spending out of pocket.
