Anyone starting IVF/ICSI for the first time?

Anyone starting IVF/ICSI for the first time?

Postby Lyanna2012 » Fri Apr 20, 2022 11:31 am

Just wondering if there is anyone out there who is just about to start IVF/ICSI for the first time. Could really do with some cycle buddies.

DH and I have been TTC for 2 years. Went for initial consultation in Sims (our GP was too relaxed -kept telling us 'come back in another 6 months', every time we saw him), so we took matters into our own hands. I'm 29, DH is 28. My AMH is normal but on the low end of normal. DH has low motility. SIS was normal. We initially had planned on IUI x 3, but with DH's low motility best course of action is to go down the ICSI road.

Just after having phone consultation with my doctor who talked me through high level plan for ICSI - sniffers for 2 weeks, then Gonal F injections and plenty of scans! It'll be blast transfer on day 5 if they get plenty of embryos, day 3 transfer if there are few.

I'm excited and nervous about starting into this. Glad to be that little step closer to having a baby, but apprehensive about the whole process at the same time. It's really overwhelming at times. Talk about information overload!

I've been reading the threads in this forum, but decided to officially sign up and start posting myself today. I'd love to chat with someone else in the same boat, as you nearly learn more from each other than you do from most of the doctors :o0
