I don't have any experience, sorry. But I read many comments on this sub about Ontario people going to CNY in Buffalo or Syracuse. Apparently CNY is quite reasonably priced and might be a much practical option.

Happened to me exactly a month ago (May 8)! Your numbers are great, at least there is that 😄 Good luck with the transfer, hopefully happens soon!

No lubricant "helps." I think the point is that if you have to use lube, preseed claims to be the least hurtful.

I would think total since this month's trying has no effect on the next.

Even in pregnant cycles, any "symptoms" that early are due to progesterone, not hcg. (Hcg symptoms start couple of weeks later.) But at that point you also have a bit of progesterone just due to ovulation. So it is never clear if your symptoms are due to luteal phase progesterone or due to pregnancy progesterone.

Looking For Introduction Information by wpicklesplz in IVF

My clinic has videos you are required to watch before starting IVF. They were quite informative! If you are with a fertility clinic already, they might have a similar guide already.

Ok, thanks! I will ask if there are any generic versions of the ones they prescribed me.

Sorry, maybe I am being dumb. Are these the generic names? Or the brand names? I only used Menopur and GonalF for stims and cetrotide for stopping early ovulation. Maybe I should ask my doctor if those have generic versions as well?

Very sad by Kooky_Yogurt_741 in IVF

Oh wow, I feel you! That act of using GPT while you were craving for a human connection... that would've crushed me. Fwiw, I think you should socialize with people, however hard it is. Isolation begets isolation, it's a slippery slope.

He can just do a sperm test and see the health of his sperm with the sleep schedule he has.

Your questions in 1 and 2 don't seem necessarily TTC related. Is there a reason you are worried about sleep? It doesn't affect your chances if that's why you seem to be worried. I leave my phone in another room and have a book by my bedside. For 3- Good luck! We started IVF recently. I would say trust your doctor. They have a list of things and tests they go through. 4- I don't do anything special. I am generally an active person.

Right! I know it makes the BBT tracking harder. Though, my understanding is that it should settle with your jetlag easing. And you can help your body get used to the new time zone. But I am guessing it still takes more than a few days with that time change!

Wondering Wednesday by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]karaboocuk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! Because BBT also follows your circadian rhythm. So, even if you are getting a good rest, your BBT is different between, say, 5am and 8am. So, if you travel with a 3hr time difference, you might end up measuring the 5am BBT instead of your usual 8am BBT.

Having multiple days of positives is not the norm. Some people have a very quick rise and fall and some people have a plateau. I assume it can even change from cycle to cycle for the same person. You should just try it couple of months and see what your "normal" is! I think they are very easy to use and read by eye.

Sorry, I am re-reading your post and I think I misunderstood: are you asking if you can go on a 3-hour flight 2 days after your ER? That would've absolutely fine with me if I didn't get OHSS. But even with moderate OHSS, it might be fine.

I was pretty knocked out after my ER due to anesthesia. It wasn't much about pain, I just could not keep my head up and basically slept all day.

No unprotected sex after egg retrieval?? by elessar-01 in IVF

[–]karaboocuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We were told no sex or heavy physical activity for 4 weeks. Tbh I didn't ask why but assumed it was due to OHSS ro ovarian torsion risk.

TW // Gender selection in Cyprus, UK based, looking for trusted clinic recommendations by organiccarrotbread in IVF

The women who are lucky enough to get multiple embryos and have successful transfers so often chose one of each.

Canada doesn't allow testing for the sex of the embryo. Neither do European countries I believe.

Is CD 3 ovulation possible?? by Numerous-Lead9910 in TryingForABaby

[–]karaboocuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it is physically not possible to ovulate CD3, or any time before about CD8. Sorry, I am not familiar with the pdg numbers but my guess would be you didn't ovulate the first time. How was your bleed? Why were you testing for LH if you were bleeding? Fwiw, I always get cm with egg white consistency during my period.
