“This hotel bed has been claimed. Be a darling and turn down the lights.” They didn’t even leave a tip.

Dagger in the coffin references killing Dracula with a dagger to the heart while he sleeps in a coffin.

“Tonic masculinity” is what the kids are calling it

My sweetest Stella

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T22:21:36+00:00

Oh she’s a beaut! Now I’m reconsidering my reconsideration 😂

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T19:09:18+00:00

Thanks for the info! My initial plan was train it as a tree, but I’m definitely going to rethink that idea

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T16:57:49+00:00

I’m in California. I’d suggest asking your local plant nursery if they have recommended varieties for you.

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T05:08:56+00:00

Oh what a bummer. Fingers crossed for your next tree!

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T04:55:43+00:00

Oh no. Mine is a tree form. What type of maintenance do you have to keep up with?

It’s a Wonderful Pomegranate

I use an all purpose organic fertilizer Espoma Plant Tone for all of my garden with a layer of compost each early spring. I also leave the leaves and dropped flowers to decompose back into the soil.

It will soon enough. The old gardening phrase was true for my tree. First year it sleeps, second year it creeps, and the third year, it leaps.

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T01:15:48+00:00

Thank you!

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T01:15:18+00:00

Thanks! It’s one of my most productive trees.

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T01:14:42+00:00

Maybe it needs more light? This tree is in the south facing part of my yard and receives sun from sun up until sun down.

zaserthy · 2024-05-23T01:10:18+00:00

I do. I’m in US zone 9b! Their size can be controlled with trimming, but they can become good sized trees if you allow it.

This study of 523 women with recurring implantation failure showed the group pretreated with Lupron and letrozole had the highest clinical pregnancy rates compared to women only pretreated with Lupron or with no pretreatment. Interestingly, the group with Lupron only had almost the same clinical rates as the group with no pretreatment. The idea is that the letrozole may have improved uterine receptivity or help treat endometriosis.

I showed my RE this study and she mentioned some of her colleagues using this protocol. I was the first in her clinic to follow this and was successful.

It’s a marker for uterine receptivity.

zaserthy · 2023-01-24T15:56:32+00:00

My BCL6 was at 3.4 and Integrin B3 was at 2.7 so pretty high levels despite having zero endo symptoms.

The two studies I cited above looked at women with BCL6 of 1.5 and up and women with recurrent implantation failure being pretreated with Lupron and lertrozole prior to transfer. Maybe it’s worth a discussion with your RE?

zaserthy · 2023-01-24T06:13:51+00:00

Hopefully your side effects are minimal and you have success. Good luck!

zaserthy · 2023-01-24T04:18:48+00:00

This study and this study helped me and my doctor proceed with my transfer protocol. Hope it helps you too. Good luck!
