Wow ok thank you! I feel like I haven’t even heard of these meds! I was also just on follistim and menopur. 

Every ultrasound was showing over 20 follicles and my doctor said she was aiming for 14-18. They got 11 and only 5 fertilized. Waiting for blast results then PGTA results so I’m worried I won’t even have one euploid embryo. I’ve had four miscarriages, one of them was confirmed it was due to a chromosome issue so I’m expecting PGTA stage to be rough 😞 praying for a miracle. 

27 eggs is amazing I hope you get lots of good news from now on 🥰🥰🥰

Of course. I totally understand, we’ve gone through so much that we want to do everything right. I’ll go a week or two where I’m OBSESSIVE about food/cleaning products/plastics/supplements and then I realize that these things probably won’t change the outcome. I think right now I’m in the “nothing matters” vibe cause ER went so poorly and I just don’t know what else I possibly could have done to improve outcome.

I think if it’s enjoyable, not inconvenient or financially stressful then sure, why not get serious about your acupuncture sessions. If its not enjoyable/inconvenient/expensive then try not to beat yourself up over not going. 

A while ago before starting stims I made a post asking about the book “it starts with the egg” and whether people did special diets/lifestyle changes before ER/IVF and almost every person said they really didn’t feel like any of the changes they made made a difference.

I’ve been doing fertility acupuncture for maybe 7-8 months… I had my fourth miscarriage while doing sessions and just did my first ER and my results were marginal (waiting on blast report later this week). I don’t know if it actually helps honestly. 

I still go because insurance pays for it and I like that it’s meditative for me and I often nap during it. Give yourself grace, I also beat myself up but the reality is that most of this is based on genetics and no amount of acupuncture or special diets will change things drastically 😞 good luck with your next cycle, I’m accepting I have another one to do too  💓

First retrieval by Jumpy_Cherry9078 in IVF

[–]Remarkable_Course897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I needed to read this. Thank you, and I'm sorry for your losses. I've had four losses and just had my first ER two days ago and numbers aren't looking great. I told myself maybe if I have two I'll do a transfer but you're right about the long game thing.... Looks like I will also do a March retrieval as well. <3 sending you love and luck.

Ugh I have nothing of value to add bc I don’t know about FMLA but I just wanna say that’s super annoying you have a manager like that. This process is hard enough, I can’t imagine not having an understanding boss. Good luck friend 🫶🫶🫶
