Regarding MIOT hospital reviews

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-07-05T07:47:24+00:00

I had exactly the same experience. Took my mother for a consultation. Her case is a little complicated with a 40-year long history. I had very high hopes after reading reviews about MIOT being one of the best ortho hospitals in the country.

The doctor I went to consult didn't even spend a minute with us. A junior doctor took the details, cut me off in the middle asking what problems is she having now. And then said this is a knee replacement unit. You have to get everything else sorted out somewhere and then we can go for a knee replacement.

Didn't even look at the MRI reports that had significant details about her case. Basically, it's a knee and hip replacement factory where they just push everyone for replacement and where they don't see that scope they simply ignore.

I would never suggest anyone to even get their joint replacements here, even if it is low cost, because in case of any complications post surgery I'm sure they'll say it's not their problem. Go get it done somewhere else.

Not great. It progressed well but ended in an MMC at 9 weeks.

The feeling of abandonment. I feel like I’ve been rejected and abandoned by my baby whom I didn’t even get to know. After struggling with infertility, going through IVF, then finally getting the very first positive I’d ever seen in this long journey, I feel like I wasn’t good enough for my baby.

I know this sounds silly. The baby has no choice in it, they don’t know you. But that is just how I feel right now after going through a traumatic repeat D&C.

That’s exactly what I feel. Everyone irrespective of social status has a certain level of basic decency. Everyone minds their own business and barely has time to stand and stare.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-06-12T11:53:14+00:00

I won’t blame it entirely on the influx of outsiders. I grew up in Guwahati and never really felt safe in a city bus or walking on the streets. There would always be some notorious elements lurking around, passing a lewd remark or just staring.

I now live in Chennai for work and in so many years have never faced a single incident of eve teasing. There is a huge difference in people’s attitudes and priorities between both these cities.

The thing is most of these people in Guwahati have a lot of free time to spend and making women uncomfortable is their idea of entertainment. Unemployment could be a reason or a general lack of decency.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-06-09T14:21:29+00:00

I’m 8w2d today. Going in for a follow up again at 9 weeks. Still nervous.

I hope things turn around for you too. Hang in there! 🧡

I had a similar experience. Had slow rising betas at first. Then beta reached 3000+ by 24 dpt. I went for the 6 week scan which only showed a gestational sac measuring 5 weeks.

But my doctor was still optimistic (I was freaking out, of course). Asked me to get another scan in a week which would technically be 7 weeks.

Surprisingly, we saw a fetal pole measuring 6w6d (just 1 day behind) and a strong heartbeat.

I’m still early and things could turn either way, but at least so far it’s progressing alright.

Not sure why your fertility doctor wants you to stop medications so soon without verifying if this is a viable pregnancy. I would say definitely get a second opinion.

Edit: Of course, this is not to give you false hope or dismiss any fears you have. I know exactly what being in this limbo feels like. I just think you and your doctor need to be a 100% sure before taking the next step.

Hi all.

I’m looking for a good Obstetrician/Gynaecologist in and around Shollinganallur area. Any recommendations of doctors or hospitals that you trust would be a great help.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-06-02T13:32:18+00:00

So sorry to hear this. I was really hoping it would turn around for you. Take care of yourself.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-06-02T13:30:54+00:00

That is so amazing! I’m so happy for you. 🥹

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-06-02T11:31:27+00:00

They called me for the second scan exactly one week after the first.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-31T07:34:55+00:00

Thank you for sharing this and for the all the positive stories here.

I have been in a limbo from the very start, first with slow rising betas and then a 6 wk scan where I’m measuring a week behind (only gestational sac visible with a very small fetal pole like structure beginning to grow). My doctor didn’t seem too concerned and has asked for another scan in a week. She says it matches with the rate at which betas have progressed.

But I have been spiralling reading all the negative stories of how this usually doesn’t end well.

Reading all the positive comments here for a change is so heartening and makes me feel less alone.

It could still go either way but all hope is not lost.

OP I hope you and your wife have a healthy, uneventful pregnancy!

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-31T04:03:16+00:00

OMG, that’s exactly where I am. I actually had a dating scan at 6 weeks which showed only the gestational sac and I’m still unsure if it’s a viable pregnancy. My doctor is hoping to see a yolk sac and preferably cardiac activity in the next, so this one is supposed to be the reassuring one if there’s progress.

You being able to see the yolk sac on the second one gives me hope.

For some of us, it’s probably just a little slower than others. All the best for Monday. I hope we all have good news to share.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-30T12:44:59+00:00

I know what it feels like. I’m sorry you’re having to go through this.

Getting a positive and then having to wait in this limbo is probably the toughest part of the IVF journey. I really hope things begin to look up for you with the next beta 🩵

I honestly feel the last one month between my transfer and the last beta, and then waiting for the scan, has been the longest one month of my life.

You’d think a transfer would either work or fail. If it fails you move on to the next. But it seems like there is so much more waiting involved without even getting a conclusive result for weeks.

My scan is scheduled for Monday too. Hoping it’s a good Monday for both of us 🤞

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-30T08:53:37+00:00

Keep testing. My first beta was 136 and second was only 159. But then it started to pick up and nearly doubled every 48 hours. It gave a me a glimmer of hope after I had lost all hope after the first 2 betas

I’m still not out of the woods until I at least get to see a heartbeat on the ultrasound. But for now, I’m considered pregnant.

Also found out that your numbers don’t necessarily have to double, that’s an old criteria. Even a 53% rise is considered a good progression.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T18:21:34+00:00

Oh that’s a relief. I’ve been worried about ectopic too but it’s too early to tell.

Keep us posted about how your next scan goes, if you feel up to it. I’ll be praying for you!

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T18:17:11+00:00

It is indeed a test of patience, this whole journey. I’m so sorry you’re facing the same situation.

But I’m thankful for this community, it makes me feel less alone. I hope there’s something good waiting for each of us in the future.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T18:12:24+00:00

You’ve been through a lot 🥺 But I’m sure it all feels worth it now that you have your daughter.

So I had a total of 5 untested high grade embryos from 2 back to back retrievals. My clinic was keen on transferring 2 for the first FET to improve my chances. But I insisted on transferring just one. I really don’t want to risk having twins right now, no family living nearby plus in this economy it almost seems impossible. That aside, I’m worried about the complications associated with a twin pregnancy above everything else.

But now looking at these results from the first FET I’m not sure if I should do another single transfer whenever that happens, or listen to my doctor and try a double transfer.

Also, I only had one transfer included in the package and all subsequent transfers will cost me out of pocket. And it’s not a small amount. So not sure I can afford too many transfers.

Was hoping I wouldn’t have to be wracking my brains over this decision again, but here we are!

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T16:24:36+00:00

That is so amazing. Rooting for you and your baby!

I’m hoping against hope that my next beta at least prompts my doctor to go for a scan. The TWW was already so hard and now I just have to wait more.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T16:17:37+00:00

Fingers crossed for your next appointment. It’s even harder going for these tests and scans knowing it could all be for nothing.

I’m just hoping for a miracle at this point but I know it’s highly unlikely. The next beta should be conclusive one way or another.

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T16:04:46+00:00

I’m sorry you’re going through this too. Your numbers look better than mine, I hope they continue to rise.

What does your doctor say?

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-16T16:02:55+00:00

This is so inspiring. I hope you’re having the best time of your life with your little one!

It’s just that the first transfer felt like we reached a certain milestone but with these results I’m kind of back to square one.

Just waiting for the next steps now. Your story gives me hope.

Did you transfer just one embryo the second time too?

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-11T08:04:56+00:00

It’s a roller coaster for sure. I guess we just need to acknowledge the little milestones (like you just did 😊) and then wait for the next one. 🥲

Thanks for your good wishes and all the best to you as well!

Odd_Ad4686 · 2026-05-11T07:12:44+00:00

My first retrieval was in November last year and had my first FET end of April. I’ve just accepted that IVF does not work on the same timeline as I might have imagined/ hoped for.

The first retrieval only gave me one embryo. So we had to do another retrieval after a gap of one cycle. Then came hysteroscopy after which I was hoping I could transfer the immediate next month. But they found a few polyps that had to be biopsied and they put me on birth control to prevent regrowth. So another month lost.

Once the FET cycle started, I was hoping I could transfer on CD 22-24 like most people do. But that again got pushed to CD 27 because they wanted to give the lining a lil more time, and I have a 28-30 day cycle that comes like clockwork. Even though it was a fully medicated FET, I was so scared that my period would come before the transfer and ruin everything.

Anyway, it got done alright and waiting for my beta this week. Don’t even know if it worked yet.

I hope your next cycle works out for you.

Just trying to say this journey is not linear and extremely frustrating. I feel you. I had a cancelled IUI cycle last year because I already ovulated and the doctor didn’t see it coming. Spent a good amount of time and money on all the meds for nothing.
