Create Fertility - Experiences

1000 replies

Sunflower360 · 13/05/2023 07:41

Hi 👋

I was hoping for people's experiences and thoughts on Create Fertility? I am considering them, so any thoughts would be much appreciated.

I am currently going through a short protocol with high stims with another clinic, baseline scan showed 4-5 follicles (expected that as I have low AMH/low ovarian reserves) but through my high stimulation am only showing 1, maybe 2 follicles that are growing...so cycle is not looking great.

So I wanted to consider Create as they specialise in natural modified and mild IVF, but would appreciate feedback on people's experiences as we would be going in multi cycle with my low AFC/AMH and want to ensure it's the best decision in those circumstances.

Thanks!

Thanks @Sunflower360 5 follicles so natural modified with tamoxifen. But there’s a cyst on my right side so have to wait for blood test as May not be able to go ahead this month. I’m confused - 2 rounds, a cancelled cycle and iui at Crgh with no cysts. At create a cyst on the left last cycle and a cyst on my right this cycle!

Sunflower360 · 22/09/2023 15:09

@Doxy21 I don't know a lot about cysts, did they indicate what could be causing them? 5 follicles is good though and there could be smaller ones hiding as it's so early on in the cycle

They said ‘blah blah blah cyst’ hahaha. Like I’m meant to know what the blah blah blah meant. I kinda wish hubby was there as he would have known and I can’t even convey what blah blah blah actually was to him as it was a medical word foreign to me!

Jx3303 · 22/09/2023 16:40

@Doxy21 oh I really hope your bloods come back fine and you can go ahead! Everything crossed. The Dr scanning me yesterday said my big follicle could be a cyst but they didn't call with any blood results so I'm hoping it wasn't. It's difficult when you're not quite sure what's going on during / after a scan! Xx

Doxy21 · 22/09/2023 18:23

@Jx3303 they haven’t called me so I guess I can go ahead!

@Doxy21 did they state what dose of stims you're taking?

@Sunflower360 150 every other day like last time

Sunflower360 · 23/09/2023 18:19

@Jx3303 hope your scan went OK?

My period has arrived, 8-9 days early but since my follicles were so large at first scan last time I guess that makes sense. Assume I’ll be in for a scan on Wednesday again and see whether there are signs of cysts or HOPEFULLY it’s 3rd time lucky for the start of cycle 2 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Jx3303 · 23/09/2023 18:36

@Doxy21 great that you can go ahead! When will you next be in for a scan?

@Sunflower360 it went fine thanks! The big one has gotten way bigger but I'm hoping it will now level out and some others will catch up. Same meds and back Monday AM. OH and pup down now and we're into our airbnb in the Peak District which is so lovely! Looking forward to a nice walk and a roast in a country pub tomorrow on my appointment free day!

@HopefulElle fingers crossed for your next cycle 🤞🏻 and good that you didn't have to wait too long for AF!

HopefulElle · 23/09/2023 18:41

Thanks @Jx3303 - glad your Airbnb is lovely and you’re making the most of having to travel. Hope you have a great ‘day off’ tomorrow
@Doxy21 good luck with your cycle!

Sunflower360 · 23/09/2023 18:52

@HopefulElle that's good news and hope all goes ok for the first scan! @Jx3303 that sounds like a good result, enjoy the appointment free day tomorrow!

Doxy21 · 23/09/2023 22:28

@Jx3303 sounds like a lovely day! I’m in again on Tuesday. Started tablets today so will see if I can start stims on Tuesday!

Woodcottage1 · 24/09/2023 07:18

Lovely, good luck everyone. I joined a webinar from LA. Some pointers. Basically if your run down do not do ivf or transfer. I thought that was really interesting. Mind set also important. I can put some things up on here if you like.
ive pushed forward with the second transfer not waiting a month between, it wasn’t recommended by this woman and I’ll see on my scan tomorrow how I’m doing but I’m feeling pretty good and that it’s my time so if everything is ok I’m pushing forward.

Sunflower360 · 24/09/2023 07:37

Thanks @Woodcottage1 would be good to see this tips. Echo what you say about wanting to go straight into it and wish you best with this next FET. I was advised to have 1 month break after the chemical pregnancy last month before starting my 1st nat mod cycle but I didn't want to wait, and I was so emotional, but somehow it turned out to be a good cycle. So sometimes it is good to go with your gut feeling

@Jx3303 hope all went ok today

Jx3303 · 25/09/2023 15:41

@Sunflower360 it went good thanks and just had the nurse call so we're triggering tonight for collection Wednesday. 3 injections left 👏🏻

@Woodcottage1 how did your scan go? The clinic was the busiest I think I'd ever seen it this morning!

Sunflower360 · 25/09/2023 15:42

That's good news @Jx3303 ! Hope EC goes ok

OP posts:
Woodcottage1 · 25/09/2023 17:25

What time were you in? I was 9.30? I’m hopefully having my transfer on Monday next week x

Jx3303 · 25/09/2023 17:32

We were 10.15am. That's great news that it's looking like next Wednesday 🤞🏻 is it medicated? Xx

Sunflower360 · 26/09/2023 17:56

Hope it went ok today @Doxy21

Doxy21 · 26/09/2023 18:16

Thanks @Sunflower360 - my biggest follicle was like 7mm - she said you start gonal f when it’s 10 but then I got a call and have to start gonal f now based on my bloods. Doesn’t seem like a great sign.

Sunflower360 · 26/09/2023 20:49

Hopefully the blood results indicate there could be some follicle growth due perhaps. Hope the next scan goes ok
