From my initial phone call to seek help to my first embryo transfer it was 13 months. We'd already been trying for close too 18 months naturally at this point. Here's a breakdown of my journey.
March 2021 phoned docs to seek help, they did phone/video calls to get some info from me and got me in for blood work to check i was ovulating, then did referral to fertility clinic.
August 2021 had hycosy to check tubes (all clear). Husband had sperm analysis (all good there too)
We were classed as unexplained Infertility so had to wait for 2 year mark before they would add us to wait list for ivf, which would be October. This may have changed now or be different for other areas. I'm Aberdeen.
October 2021 added to wait list, was told 4-5 month wait time.
December 2021 call to say we were at top of list.
January 2022 had video appointment with nurses and did online consent forms.
March 2022 started on norethisterone to time the start of my next cycle.
April 2022 went in on cycle day1 (4th april) for baseline scan, started injections, had a few scans, then did trigger on 13th April, egg collection 15th, and embryo transfer on 20th.
Thankfully worked 1st time and my daughter is now 22 months old. We are starting progress again next month to try for a sibling.
