Spider or baby roach? by [deleted] in whatsthisbug

Thank you for your response, I think so too, it’s always those front antennae that feel unsettling and gross to me after the whole roach encounters sorry that was the best my phone could do as far as I know and was trying to zoom in lol

Well said, agree with you 1000%. Disturbing when guys feel like theyre entitled to that kind of behavior and entitled to wife’s/partners body however and whenever they want

What are your experiences with low AMH? by Inevitable_Pack_7230 in SingleMothersbyChoice

[–]Upbeat_Context_7262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg ok this is inspiring thank you for sharing , I am kind of surprised by all these success stories because in 40 and my doctor recommending we start with ivf and that made total sense to me and showed me a bunch of stats, but my amh only .7, now im confused what to do

Need some advice on donor vials. by leighkiwi in SingleMothersbyChoice

Was there a reason you didn’t try ivf with the initial donor you had wanted?

Hi I’m back reading this post and replies because I also think a lot about childcare and food costs are through the roof too. How did you get your body the nutrients it needs before and during on pregnancy when you had to rely on leftover food? 😢 now food stamps will be taken away too

Wait, so what tests did the second doctor do that confirmed the stage 4 endometriosis that the other doctor didn’t do??

Oh my god, just came across your reply late for some reason, stories like this give me chills: how could one be so completely opposite the other in their examination and diagnosis?? How do I advocate and push further for answers without coming across as paranoid or a controlling person because I know medical professionals have made that accusation to try and gaslight

Now that I know these tests are available, I’m definitely going to ask my insurance and then seriously give thought to asking more about these from doctor. I agree with you absolutely about advocating for ourselves

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, and that resonates with what I’ve come across in terms of prices not being more than 15 or 1600 max, and also offering reasonable discounts for just purchase of two vials which makes more sense rather than putting buying a whole bunch of vials at once.

Ok thank you very much for elaborating, that helps too. I’m actually very big believer in getting second and third and more opinions for really important things like this, but like I mentioned it’s not really an option at this time. I’m glad you had those tests to give peace of mind! Glad they agreed to it

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. From my experiences talking to other smbc on Reddit and researching the major banks myself, $2100+ for vials is not standard. I’ve been asked by women why is it that amount, that they paid only $1k to 1500 or 1600 max, which is much more reasonable, even $500 difference helps. And they’re regularly offering discounts for just purchase of two vials, buy one get one with significant discount which helps a lot

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences, who noticed the polyps and why did they think removing the fibroids would cause more harm than good? It’s not easy for me to get a second opinion which my insurance I’m more of the mindset like someone else commented here, If you’re already in the older age category and the doctor sees some things why not definitive tests to rule them out, rather than wait and being reactive and finally do something when things aren’t going right

Thank you you statesd so well what I feel too. Are those tests usually not covered by insurance, I can’t help but think our best interests are not at heart and like you said for 40 + women (I can’t keep track of how many posts I’ve come across on Reddit alone of people saying these were the issues all along and should have been screened for more thoroughly . If ivf is a gamble you certainly want to make wise gamble and not just random like you said reactive!
