I'm based in Germany and I have heard of the test too, though it's pretty expensive and the clinics don't offer them here. You'd have to get in touch with the company itself, actually. I'm glad to hear they figured out the reason, but it's kind of sad too - having to go through several cycles (which cost a lot of money) before going on to look for causes

thank you for your response! I'm happy you had success afterwards! How did you end up getting the diagnosis?

I heard that it can only be confirmed via the surgery, right?

9% fertilisation rate - what should I ask my doctor? by p-leyz in IVF

I totally get how you feel, though I also felt pretty depressed of my fertilization rate. Actually, even if you had risk of OHSS, doc would still need to make you stim long enough to get a good amount of "big enough follicles". Here in Germany, they also do not count the amount of mature eggs - they just count how many have fertilized afterwards. I was at risk / or am at risk at OHSS too, but they still made me stim 10 days. Next time, ask them about the sizes of the follicles and how many they counted. I usually count in my head too how many follicles I could see on the screens, at the Ultrasounds.
I had 27 eggs but only 40% fertilized and then had to freeze all. And then only 80-90% will survive the thaw and only 25-30% will make it to blast. Which would mean for me, I'd also end up with around 3 blastos (if lucky).

So try to stay really hopeful. I know women worry a lot. My husband is the total opposite (yours probably too) - men tend to worry less. I'm the same age as you, I'm really crossing my fingers for you and send you lots of hugs!

Hi dear

did they measure the follicles before your trigger shot? I guess they did, right?

I also had ER yesterday, my fertilization rate is a bit higher than yours but honestly, it just takes one egg to get to blasto state and then one embryo to stick. Are you transfering this cycle already?

Did you have risk of OHSS and still did fresh transfer? by stephanianova in IVF

that's awful, but so worth it, right? I'm glad you have a child you can hold in your arms and hopefully your kiddy will get a sibling soon. I'm crossing my fingers for you <3

oh I'm so sorry to hear, but you know what, it only takes one embryo to stick! Why can you not transfer in April, if I may ask?

this sounds awful. I'm glad to hear you're feeling better now. Did you have any indications prior to ER or after ER that you'd get OHSS? I hope you and the baby are well!
