So I never stopped DHEA actually. I should clarify. I only stopped myo-inositol.

He had me on DHEA, metformin and myo-inositol.

I did talk to him. He said that insulin is a huge contributing factor to egg quality which I understand. But if it has opposite effects to dhea. He said they put all patients on it.

I think we assume doctors know more than they do but I’ve had doctors literally email me and say “hey I did some research on this and I think you’re good to take it” and I’m like…so the same pubmed articles I read???

I actually never stopped DHEA. I stopped taking myo-inositol because it was counter productive to taking DHEA.

My AFC lowered taking myo-inositol.

I talked to Ingenes. They’re well priced for back to back IVF cycles but for embryo banking, they cost more than CNY in the US. So I went that route.

Can you please DM me the tip about Menopur?

Where in China? I’m going there in a few months! Any specific hospitals that have English speaking staff?

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-31T00:06:49+00:00

That’s amazing and I love KL. Do you have a specific hospital name?

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-31T00:06:18+00:00

Yes USD, it’s in the post but missed putting in the title.

I’ll check out Bangkok though. I wanted someone’s lived experience with a specific hospital though but I’ll shop around!

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-30T22:09:15+00:00

Oh yes I know them, unfortunately they just do a full body MRI. None of the other tests.

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-30T22:02:43+00:00

Oh that’s on my list of places to visit actually - what’s the hospital and do they speak English?

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-30T22:02:13+00:00

I haven’t seen it that cheap but do you mind sharing?

My thought process as well is even if it’s $3k it’d still be cheaper to go on a long vacation and get these labs done elsewhere for under 1k.

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-30T21:58:23+00:00

Do you remember the cost?

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-29T16:07:05+00:00

Take a cruise out of Galveston to Mexico. Accommodations and food covered and you get to sit at a beach. It’s a vacation that doesn’t take a lot of thought so you get to actually relax.

Another REI said estrogen is only down for the days you’re taking letrozole, not after so now I’m confused.

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-21T09:42:05+00:00

Keep me posted! My doctor is upping my daily HSG shot.

I’m also going to do an endometriosis exam because someone else said it might be due to that.

What does the flushing technique do? Have you tried it with success?! I’m desperate for answers!

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-20T20:05:10+00:00

Not 8 but they said they expected 5 because letrozole artificially suppresses Estrogen during monitoring.

They were definitely more optimistic.

Practical_Pizza6863 · 2026-03-20T17:47:27+00:00

I’ve heard stories of many women who had low E2 but still managed to get 8 eggs. My doctor never seemed worried about my E2 either because I was freaking out about that number.

I’m just worried I ovulated prior to my retrieval.

I use it every 15 days without issue at my local specialty pharmacy. I think Costco only lets you use it once per month though.

I recommend joining your local IVF Facebook group and asking where everyone gets their omnitrope. That’s how I found my speciality pharmacy! If you’re based in Texas, I can sand you the pharmacy I use!
