The Trials and Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

Sillysausage PUPO, fingers crossed

Fingers crossed for Sarah and Primmer too.

Blue - its amazing what they can do with the sperm for ICSI I am sure it will be ok. Its doesn't matter if they are poor they just cut the tails of anyway.

ETO - think positive and try and relax (I know hard)

Crappy day for me. I have still not ovulated and the clinic have suggested I abandon this natural FET and opt for a medicated one, as I may not ovulate one month to the next. OH wants to go for another natural one but I am not sure they will suggest this and I don't want to keep on wasting money on the scans to get nowhere. I feel like back to square one again, I'm so frustrated.

Havent compared Results for a long time,but when I had My IVF Nurture had higher success rates for IVF / ICSI than Care.( although CARE were leading the field with immune issues)

Thanks hun. CARE were the only ones I could find that did discounted IVF/ICSI with egg sharing in the midlands (I'm in Leicester). I'll look up Nuture now.

Thanks for your help. Is SA a sperm assessment? He had that done at Docs from ejaculation and it was zero. I can only surmise that after his allegedly "successful" reversal it sealed up, like they warned could happen. I wanted it extracted and tested first to see if it was ok to use for IVF/ICSI. I didn't want to have tests until I'd found that out. Oh well, can't have everything you want I suppose.

SA is sperm aspiration where they take the sperm straight from the testies

I'm pretty sure that Nurture still do egg share.

Although I admit I'm biased towards Nurture,I really would recommend them - they were completely honest with us re our chances & we never felt that they were offering false hope in order to extract cash from us.They also put profit back into research (part of the university) rather than give the Directors big fat bonuses.

Sorry I'm not much help re the sperm extraction.

Bluemeanie-we were told that there was a 40 week waiting list to see the urologist, then a further wait for the procedure if they decided it was appropriate on the NHS here in Glasgow, not sure what waiting lists are like elsewhere. We will be going private for the extraction as we are not entitled to any more NHS treatment, it's about £1000 here using a local anaesthetic or £2500 using a general. Hope that helps and isn't just a ramble
