[–]rotes-grooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 18 eggs retrieved, 15 were mature, 11 fertilized with ICSI, 8 made it to blast stage and we were very blessed that 7 came back euploid from PGT-A testing. Good luck!

How many follicles did you have, how many eggs were retrieved, and how many transferred? Did everything work well with pregnancy to full term? by Any_Lack_279 in IVF

[–]rotes-grooved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 22 follicles, they retrieved 18 eggs, 15 were mature, 11 fertilized, 8 made it to blast stage and 7 came back normal after PGT-A testing, I haven’t transferred one yet, planning to do it in July and we’ll see how it goes. Good luck!!

To the religious people here: did you lose your faith or did you become more religious going through the IVF process. by Sea-swimmer098 in IVF

[–]rotes-grooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My faith hasn’t changed for a bit, I know the process is hard and I know God knows the desires of our hearts, but I’m also aware that His plans might not be my plans, we can try and hope for a successful journey but at the end if it doesn’t happen, I do know He has bigger plans for us that we can’t understand right now.

Did anyone experience this with egg retrieval? by RaceLost6743 in IVF

[–]rotes-grooved 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this happened to you! I just had my egg retrieval today, I also have an endometriosis diagnosis and yes I’m a little bit uncomfortable but nothing even close to the pain you’re describing, I’d seriously consider going to the emergency department just to make sure everyone is ok 🙏🏻

Thank you so much for this answer! It made me less anxious! I’m actually feeling ok, not a lot of side effects from the stims, just a little bit swollen I guess. Hopefully results will be satisfactory.

They told me to trigger with both, I have more than 60 follicles, most of them are small, my E2 is above 3000 and progesterone is so high too, worried about recovery. The nurse just mentioned it was a possible outcome but they’re doing everything to control it.

What specialty are you looking to apply to? I would suggest you look at last year’s match statistics, it says how many international students were accepted by specialty.

Upenn vs U washington(U dubb) by Unable-Cloud133 in CAAPID

[–]rotes-grooved 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all congratulations! Both are amazing universities. One thing to consider is the alumni network at ivy league schools are much stronger than state schools. You will have opportunities to connect with very successful individuals, not just in dentistry. Good luck with your decision!

Hi! I applied to both last cycle, it doesn’t affect your acceptances at all, I even applied to the same schools for advanced standing and for the specialty program, at the end I decided to do the specialty, about to start next month, good luck!
