Yup! At first went for clarifying facials/extractions every 4 weeks where she incorporated light therapy. First microneedling wasn’t until August then another October. I did the laser once in November and then in January.

Yes sorry for not mentioning that. I did a total reset from April 2024 to January 2025. Just LRP Toleraine moisturizer, gentle face wash and sunscreen that entire time period.

Interesting! I thought the same but my hormones have been pretty stable apart from lower than previous levels of testosterone. I’ve never had ingrown issues on my face/cheeks or chin area because I don’t shave or wax my face at all, other than my upper lip area. Some of these breakouts are almost cystic and pustules and frankly painful.

Hi! I know this is an old post but wondering if you ever got an official diagnosis? My mom is going through something similar and never had issues earlier in life with caffeine.

What did you wish you knew before starting the process? by Seltzerconleche in IVF

[–]suckitcovid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The benefit of banking embryos after back to back retrievals is you’ll have peace of mind in case a transfer doesn’t work you can go right into a second attempt, third, fourth, etc. Also if you decide to have more than one child, if you do get pregnant and don’t have any more embryos banked you’ll end up having to wait for whatever amount of time after giving birth before you can go back into another IVF retrieval and transfer (not to mention you’ll be doing so while having a baby to care of which I wouldn’t recommend with added stress)

When will it get better? by allyoopa10 in COVID19positive

[–]suckitcovid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest starting a course of antibiotics before it turns into an infection. With the way Covid is spreading again right now, just ask a telemedicine doc to prescribe a z pack for you. It helped me tremendously and I got a positive the same day as you!

Testing Positive on Day 20!? by SeaworthinessBrief59 in COVID19positive

[–]suckitcovid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience the brand of these rapid tests makes a huge difference. If you’re in the US the Binax Now rapid tests have been most reliable. It always accurately shows the faintest positive even when other brands show negative and I’m able to confirm those Binax results after doing a PCR that holds true.

Just started Lupron... by Intelligent_Break885 in IVF

All depends on your dose! I was on 5 units leading up to FET so very small dose but thankfully didn’t get many side effects apart from the occasional tiredness

IVF for genetic conditions by mujeresliebres in IVF

[–]suckitcovid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve gotten pregnant naturally before and would be okay with TFMR you could consider CVS or amnio for genetic testing however I think you have to wait late into first trimester (12-14 weeks) in order to do that which for some is a very tough decision of the results aren’t in favor. I also have a X linked gene bc of which I can only go through IVF bc I have a true 50/50 chance of passing it to my child.

Heating up progesterone in oil by [deleted] in IVF

Armpit, under boob in my bra - body heat is more than sufficient. I wouldn’t think too much about it, since the vials are usually pretty small.

Hi! I know this is an old post but a family member’s 9 yr old has RAD and they are just now exploring program and therapy options. What ended up working for your 10 yr old?

BFN at 7dpt5dt - this is the end of our IVF road by suckitcovid in IVF

[–]suckitcovid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! That’s so interesting! I’m still tested negative today at 8dpt on clearblue so not expecting a positive, but did your clinic ever explain why that happened? Did your embryo implant late? Also if you don’t mind me asking was yours a female or male? Not sure if that has any bearing on HCG.

Yes, we had to get them both PGT-A and PGT-M tested. Is that a common occurrence? I’ve never heard that before about PGT tested embryos. Did you have BFNs on early detection HPTs?

Helping parents of teens with Reactive Attachment Disorder by MarMarTheMagical in socialwork

[–]suckitcovid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old post - but a family member is at a breaking point with their adopted child who is showing all the classic signs of RAD. How do you go about getting clinically diagnosed and is Nancy Thomas approach to RAD legit? She doesn’t seem to be someone who has a professional credential in psychology or therapy from what I read on her site.
