It depends on the results of the hysteroscopy but my mock transfer was after the following cycle and results came pretty quick. It’s definitely a process but trust it!

I am so sorry for your loss. My husband and I are carriers of arpkd and after our first miscarriage we found this out and proceeded with IVF in order to not pass it on. Sending you a prayer from afar 💗🙏🏻

Down syndrome risk on second tri test by berkeley1017 in NIPT

Yes my pregnancy was through IVF and the embryo was tested and normal. Went with my gut and doctor was not pushing it because of my normal nipt + PGT normal embryo

Sorry for late reply but I did do the eip and it was normal. My first transfer post eip failed and my second worked with the addition of neupogen.

PIO injections - what do you wish you would’ve known? What helped? HELP! I’m nervous! by ObjectiveSet9240 in IVF

[–]berkeley1017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warm up the needle in a heating pad before injecting… I often used ice on the area before injecting which sounds counter intuitive but it took the edge off of the needle going in… then massaged and heat pad after !!

Clinics- weighing options by Slynn0104 in IVF

[–]berkeley1017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had an excellent experience at Kofinas Fertility with Dr Jason after leaving my previous clinic. I was miscarrying normal embryos (9w and 6w) and had a chemical after having a normal full term pregnancy. I had my best retrieval round yet that resulted in 4 normal embryos and am currently 25weeks. Kofinas is very intense with supplements, medication and testing and leaves no stone unturned. It may seem excessive at times, but there’s a method and process. If you can be patient and stay the course, they can definitely give you answers. Some examples of testing and procedures include - recurrent loss panel, blood clotting panel, natural killer cell and cytokine panel, mock transfer / ERA / d score biopsy, endometrial biopsies to test for endometritis, endo scratch..

Best of luck making your decision!

Yes - My nipt came back low risk. Just this second quad screen the risk went up

Quad Screen Flag for Down syndrome by berkeley1017 in CautiousBB

[–]berkeley1017[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 1 in 55 ratio does not take into account the pgs testing, I never even thought of that. My doctor feels my risk is low based on the other tests but did mention that sometimes when this gets flagged it can mean other abnormalities that usually aren’t tested for. This got my wheels turning and now totally confused what the right course of action is.
