No I haven't had IVF on the NHS as the waiting list is like 2/3 year so I'm kinda continuing on the gonal if that makes scene my clinic does private and NHS but if u continue the meds they can't put u on that list and it's my age I'm worried about as been trying so long my partner had told me last night ask for iui even see wot they say , maybe there is protacal and I don't think my partner wants to see wait for the IVF in 3/3 years as he's saved for one session already will nearly there we just don't no wor to do it is a bit of a pickle we just would love a wee baby that's going to be loved and I really think it's my body that's not holding you no

@Dachshund1 no I’ve never had it. I suppose the timing all depends on when you would trigger and how long they have. They might say yes they might say next cycle so they have more time to explain everything and make sure everything is ready. Does the clinic you are with having pricing on their website? Did you have ivf on the nhs at all? Or just the gonal f and trigger?xxx

My partner was even talking about going straight to ivf but I'd rather try the iui just to see my plan was for gonal f tomorrow and if can trigger , but we have kind of changed our minds and would like to ask the doctor if we could try iui just it's so short of notice , my partner said he will dipp Into the IVF money but I'm not sure how much extra it would cost either xxxxxxxx

IV used my NHS help , so I'm now paying per ttc per month but it was would it be to short of notice to ask today because my appointment is tomorrow for iui my partner told me he will pay anything for to try the iui just for a try as the gonal and trigger doesn't seem to be working xxxxxx

@Dachshund1 are you nhs or private? Private should do it if you ask them to nhs might not but either one you probably need to speak to them about it soon if it is what you want. I have been tempted as well but nhs won’t do it for me yet xxx

Alexis once your folicle reaches 10mm they should grow 2mm everyday that sounds good I'm actually over on Friday as day 2 of my bleed today and no medication to induce so scan Friday aswell and might be allowed to start my gonal f injections again , I think your folicle size sounds good another few days wot size so they let you trigger at ??? Some clinics or different I think mine is 19-20mm xxxxxxx

Ooh these next few days one will take dominance hopefully, took me two weeks on 75iu to get a good few to grow x
im going for early scan tomorrow almost too early I fear hope to be able to see something xxx

Alexis7890 · 14/02/2023 22:11

Hey ladies, had my monitoring today…got to carry on at 75 for a few more days. Lots of follicles trying to grow and around 8-10mm but nothing big yet. Going back Friday morning to see if anything has grown, not lost hope yet!xxx

Melpainter · 13/02/2023 20:44

Oooh that’s so exciting I will be keeping everything crossed for you xx will you be doing any home ovulation testing and testing the trigger shot out? I’m a poas addict I’ve been finishing off the cheap Amazon ones to make sure the line doesn’t fade 😬 so worried about something happening xxx

Alexis7890 · 12/02/2023 21:31

@Melpainter sure does!! 5 injections done so far, last cycle it took 12 but on a higher dose this time so hoping it’ll be quicker! Will see how it’s going Tuesday afternoon and hope there is a good follicle growing. Hoping to be able to trigger by Friday or next Monday xxx

Melpainter · 12/02/2023 21:19

Yay so glad your both on the move with your treatments gives you a new release of energy!

I will do but the line is super super faint I was just testing as I should be on day 3 of my new missed cycle can they tell by bloods girls ? Wot should your levels be that early or wot is the normal HCG level thanks girls for getting back so quick xxxxxxx

OP posts:
Melpainter · 12/02/2023 13:09

Hi @Dachshund1 i agree with @Alexis7890 defo do scan and they will prob rec bloods to see HCG levels let us know how you get on xxxx

Alexis7890 · 12/02/2023 12:39

Hey @Dachshund1 i personally would have the scan, if there is a positive then that’s amazing and a scan won’t be a risk at all. In the USA and lots of Europe they do internal scans at like 6 weeks pregnant as normal so can’t be a risk. You can always mention it to the nurse and see what she says? A scan is harmless to a baby hope that helps you feel better xxx
