Me and my SO have been trying consecutively for the past 10 months & no luck! I know it can take longer but I was wondering if there’s anything that helped you conceive. My cycle is roughly 28/29 days - ovuation around cycle day 15/16 Thank you

I am the only one who has got chickenpox no idea how I've had them before but I've been told I definitely have chickenpox how does that work out. I've had my child whilst having chickenpox but he has nothing. Is that normal?

Hey! For those of you who have done ivf before and then went for a second round after having success, did you have to redo the sis test or did you just have to do an ultrasound?

Hello everyone, I have been diagnosed with PCOS at an early age (14yo) so I had the time to metabolize it, however today I was told by my fertility doctor that I also have endometriosis with an endometrioma on my ovary. I can’t stop thinking that I’ll never be able to get pregnant and that my only option would be IV...

Has anyone successfully got pregnant with pcos without any help? Our first was with fertility meds but not sure if I will be able to get it prescribed by doctor again or will have to go private - private is too expensive so I just really need some hope

Hi! I have PCOS and have been TTC for 2 years. Next week I have my first fertility appointment. We’re not really looking for IVF at the moment, but would be open to IUI. What are your thoughts on IUI vs IVF? Thanks everyone! 🤗

Is there anyone going through the IUI process using a sperm donor? If so, how long did it take you before getting pregnant? I know they say it can some months before pregnant, but now I'm thinking how long should I stick with this same donor.

I start IVF soon and need to know what should I prepare for… I’ve have my tubes tied and just rather go through the IVF route.

Hello lovely ladies! I’m hoping a few of you might be able to meet out. We have finally given up with waiting on NHS. And we are now going private!

Any food I need to avoid or anything I can do to help with the outcome? Thanks I’m so nervous! 😫

Hello Does everywhere say you have to have a certain BMI to be eligible for NHS funded IVF? Iv got 5 pound to go until I can be listed and it’s so hard to get this last bit off. Also do you have to be a certain BMI for funded IVF?

Has anyone had their IUI cycle cancelled because of having too many dominant follicles? Were you given the choice whether to proceed or not?

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to give some clarity to my situation. I saw a private fertility consultant this week, I had 2 losses last year. I mentioned Progesterone and he seemed pretty blasé about it “it’s expensive but you can try it if you want?” He sent over a prescription with the fee of £1850! Befor...
