Dear cutecutetown,

After taking 10 days of BCP (birth control pills), u/s show no more cyst, but only 3 follicles on the left & 1 follicle on the right. My Dr even find difficulties in "finding" my right ovary coz no "dark follicles" in the ovary...

My Dr said 4 follicles count is not worthy to start ivf in this cycle. Maybe a few days later when M come the u/s may show a few more. (10 days ago day 3, I got 8 follicles). Dr said my ovaries are over-suppressed by the BCP. :(

M come today (The 4th day after stopping BCP). Do you think I should take a rest for this cycle? I guess even I can get a few more follicles, the sizes are not even and more injections may be needed compared to last time. Please advise.

* I am now a bit regret taking BCP...perhaps I should take a cycle rest is more effective!

Thanks in advance!

Dear 幸福大少奶,

Good, I would have suggested you to pick option 2 as well. Usually the cysts would disappear, sometimes also depending on how many you have.

If u/s again in 10 days and M comes 5 d ...

Dear cutecutetown,

Hi, this is dingsmama again. I just wanted to update you and ask you some questions. I thought I had biochemical pregnancy again since I bled a lot of Jul 12, and doctors cannot locate the sac even on Jul 16 ( 6 weeks & 2 days). When I started to up and about, I received call from my doctor saying that my hcg level is still rising from 2700 on Jul 16 to 3500 on Jul 19, and he's suspecting me to have ectopic.

I will have another blood test and ultra sound again this Thursday, Jul 22. By then I shall be 7 weeks. If my doctor still cannot see anything from u/s, and my hcg is still rising, I might need an operation.

cutecutetown, may I know the following:
1) With the above said, I'm likely to have ectopic, right?
) Is it possible that no sac can be seen on 6 wks 2 days from u/s, but the baby catch up afterwards?

Thanks much for your help in advance. All I can do now is pray.

How long have you have the brown discharge? And what's the volume like? I had spotting when I first found out I was pregnant too, and it lasted for 2 days and stopped, with the volume li ...

Hello Leesnoopy,

Different people have different ways to handle stress. After going through your 1st ivf, you somewhat know what to do and how to prepare things, which hopefully relieves some of the stress.

I am not sure if Chinese medicine can help egg quality; how many eggs did you have from your recent ivf? To give you a bit of comfort, some women at your age can't even go through an ivf because they don't produce enough eggs. Some do have a few eggs but no embryo for transfer because either none fertilized or none develop to embryo. The ovaran reserves in women diminish over time, no one can deny it. But to look on the bright side, since you still have eggs to proceed to ivf, be glad and don't be stressed.

It looks like your first priority should be to learn to deal with your stress level. May I ask, where does your stress come from? (Fertility is a constant one for most jm's here.) Other than fertility issue, from work perhaps? How's your energy level like? Do you have any hobby or things that you like to do?

While you are 'preparing' for your next ivf, reward yourself or even spoil yourself a little. Although your 1st ivf failed, you did try your best by doing a whole month work (e.g. getting injections on time, doing exactly what your doctor told you). Give yourself a little reward so that emotionally your mind can be refreshed while your body is recovering.

Feel good and be confident.

Dear 幸福大少奶,

No need to regret, I still think you have done the right thing taking the BCP. If you had rested without the BCP, your next cycle/next egg cohort might still start asynchronized (with various pace), meaning very much like last time --> of various sizes and possibly with cyst(s). I am hoping that if you rest for one cycle to dilute out the suppression effect, the follicles will grow with similar pace. However, the number of initial follicles will still be unknown; the key is to have them grow at the same pace.

As always stated, I am no expert when it comes to clinical/medical calls. My opinion is the above, and if your doctor suggests something else, I believe you should listen to his/her advice.

Dear dingsmama,

1) Yes, it's very likely to be an ectopic pregnancy.
2) Not possible, the u/s will always show something inside your uterus if you are already 6+ weeks.

I am so sorry that you have to go through this devastating event, but an ectopic preg. can be a real danger to the woman. It happens in natural conception as well, and it shocks me every time when I hear it from my patients and close jm's. Please look after yourself and update us your health. We all support you here.

Dear sukudo,

It depends on the quality of that single embryo after thawing. If I remember correctly, you have a few failed cycles already. Have you been going to the same doctor? If it's not an embryo quality issue, any other underlying factor(s) your doctor has or will investigate?

Yes, combining fresh and frozen-thawed embryos in one ET procedure is definitely feasible. However, whether your doctor/centre will accept this option is another matter. Definitely ask your doctor about this possibility.

我今次係第1次IVF, 之前因為E2高開始唔到, 我相信我已經FAILED, 明天會返QM見醫生, 我知道我仲有1個雪胎, But is it worth to put one embryo only? so i am consider to re-open the new treatment, and put the fresh and frozen together

另外想問通常ivf fail後, 如果想再開始, 要rest幾耐架?

Dear sukudo,

Do you know the quality of that frozen embryo? If it is of good quality, it is worth for transfer. In many centres in western countries, especially when they have good overall success rates, they do transfer with one single embryo only for most patients.

You may still bring up the fresh+frozen idea to your doctor for discussion. However, I suspect that QM policy may not allow you to do so.

There is no strict rule about the need for resting or how long you need to rest. Some people start immediately after a failed cycle, while some rest for >6 months. Follow your instinct and start when you feel you are ready. I normally recommend a month, simply because I tend to believe that the body needs to flush out any residual medicine effect and also the emotional state needs to recover; no scientific basis really.

If you are keen to start again, keep 平常心 and start. If your E2 actually is low enough to start, that will be good; if not, just treat it as if the body asks for a rest that month. Then you are in this "win-win" situation.

Take care, cutecutetown

Dear sukudo,

That's good, if you are financially ok 做多次IVF, then frozen+fresh should give you the best chance.

To think one more step ahead, if you will have more than enough from the fresh cycle this round, transfer the fresh ones only and freeze the surplus. Then, should you need yet another round of ET in the future, you will have more than 1 frozen embryo.

Dear cutecutetown,

Just another update - I am 8 weeks 1 day today and have another gyn visit. First time in our lives, we saw a larger embryo, now 1.64 cm in size and with very good heartbeat. This was an amazing moment, really! Although I know there is still chance of misxxxxxxx, we (baby and us) has made a big step further. I am still having brownish discharge (though it's getting less now), we will add oil!

DEAR CUTECTUETOWN,

本人35歲，打算生小孩，但在08年檢查時被發現右面有子宮內膜移位症 (2008年時約4cm, 2010年時約3.6cm) 及右面輸卵管閉塞的問題。但子宮內膜移位症並沒有對日常生活做成影響而左面子宮是正常的. 丈夫的精子檢查是正常.

此外, 本人於一年半前結婚. 沒有刻意計算排卵期亦沒有避孕.

以下是檢查報告結果 (於月經第二天做):

卵胞刺激素: 8.92 mIU/ml
黃身體形成荷爾蒙: 3.02 mIU/ml
雌二醇: 31.0 pg/mL

第一位醫生說怕我做手術會影響子宮的功能叫我先做 IUI 及 IVF, 然後在生小孩的時候才一併處理那個朱古力瘤。另一醫生建議先做手術去改善子宮內膜移位症才去試懷孕, 但她都說我的情況是比較尷尬, 做手術與不做手術都各有好處及壞處.

請問我應該聽哪一位醫生的話呢？如果做手術去改善右面子宮內膜移位症, 左面子宮機能是否會有影響?

Dear ABCMum,

Hm...a bit slow indeed; need to see how they grow and hope they can somewhat catch up. I am a little worried about the egg quality if they grow too slow, but let's wait for the u/s on Tue. and discuss then.

Good luck,
