I went to have my copper iud removed today. they couldnt find the strings and have referred me for a scan (could take 3-4 months) they said they scan you and locate it and then remove. anyone else had this? im worried now :(

I’m trying to remain positive that I won’t need it but I’m also very realistic and would like to be prepared. Is there a way of finding out how much IVF will cost where you are. I don’t qualify for it for free through the NHS x

Hi everyone, I am 11 DPO today and got a faint positive. Been trying from last 2.5 years..!! I have got my first faint positive..

Booked in to start our IVF ‘admin’ month in August with the plan to start a short protocol in September. My periods are very regular and it’s looking that I would start stims 4 days before my sisters wedding. Im hoping for some experiences on what symptoms people felt around day 5 and any advice how I can make the s...

My husband has retrograde ejaculation. He took some medicine to help produce more cum. We decided to try the at home insemination kits. He produced like a quarter of teaspoon of cum into the cup. I was able to draw it into the syringe and insert it. Has anyone tried the at home kits? Do you think that was enough cum?

Did anyone get more eggs and/or embryos on their 2nd or 3rd IVF cycle? I got very few embryos on my first cycle and about to start my second. I don’t know if the first time was the best I’m going to get.

My husband and I want another girl so we timed sex 3 days before ovulation. Probably a myth but i read female sperm live longer than male. Has anyone had success with just one attempt at baby or did I just blow this cycle?

I just got the call from my geneticist today and he said they found that my future boy has a 50/50 chance at being diagnosed with Klinefelter. I think I am still in a bit of shock but also just relieved that nothing more serious was wrong so far. We can’t confirm until December, but I just wanted to reach out for s...

Hi everyone, We're ttc baby number 2 after going through IVF for our first. Before that I had a mmc at 12 weeks (not IVF). We started trying again in May 2023 and I've had 2 chemical pregnancies. Has anyone been through anything similar and they have any success stories? Can anyone share if they did anything differ...

My partner and I have been trying for 3 years with two failed ivfs.... We get married next week, and then we were going to start the adoption process. I'm a few days late, just wanted to take a test just to stop me overthinking... Within seconds it's there!!! What the hell?! Is it real???

What’s the difference between the two types? My first baby was conceived through IVF and we really want to go for another try but the donor we picked now only has IUI sperm. Really don’t want to pick a different donor. Any way we can use IUI sperm for IVF procedure? I’m new to this! Help!

So i have a consult to start IVF the 17th this month (after 3 failed IUI’s). And i got a few questions… First off i wanna say, I’m not a fan of needles. Let alone inject myself. (Did a few time during IUI but took me a long time to get the needle in) And i know once i start IVF I’m gonna have to do injectables. So...
