My husband and I have gone to the clinic today and we are so devastated our first IVF failed 😭 I was looking for videos that says there’s a way for egg quality to be better but then i felt discouraged hearing what Dr Morris has said there’s no cure to make the quality of the eggs better. Hearing this adds to the pain I’m feeling right now, but I will never give up and keep my Faith to the Lord . One day I’ll have my own baby too
It's really v gud to have a positive attitude .....
There are millions of women facing the same problem but miracles do happen......have faith in God (Allah)
and pray .......
Best of luck my dear may you get pregnant and have a beautiful healthy baby
My husband and I will be starting soon. I’ll be praying for you. 🙏🏽
I will pray for you
Hugs.God will see you thru
My cousin has been trying to conceived for so many years. During her early marriage life, she had bad lucks causing her to loose 2 undeveloped embryos. Later on, she and her husband have been "babyless" since idk maybe almost 10 years. She's still young, still in her early 30's now. Last few months she was expecting a baby but the embryos didn't stick. Many times now... The embryos failed to turn into baby. However, my cousin is still strong and believes that she will have baby. Pray for her and her future children.
Praying 🙏🏼
Praying
Never ever give up is my advice to her , blessings to her
You don't give up, but sometimes the money does. It's a very expensive process
I am 33yrs and we have done the egg retrieval so far 4 eggs where great, unfortunately it’s been a journey!! Good luck to everyone trying to have a baby!!
How is your journey going ? I'm on my 4th round. Soon..I have 2 losses in 7 months..silent losses. One was in April 2022.its hard
Wishing you all the best Amber!
What happened ma
It’s crazy how that works! I have two coworkers that went through this. One didn’t have success :( but the second one just had success on their first try! I more than likely will need it too. This give s me hope
Going through this brought me be back to earth, being a doctor myself all my adult life I thought science has all the answers, but this process taught me we don’t know much, we don’t work like a car, we are not machines…
Life is a miracle
Had my FET 4 days ago! Hoping for a positive test soon!
Best wishes to all who are trying ❤️
Best of luck! I'm having mine in mid feb. How did you find tge transfer processM
How was your beta result?
How did urs go? Did you end up being pregnant ? I just had my FET 3 days ago
@@Epiyaiyo how was it? U pregnant now? Am gonna have mine next month
Any updates?
Dear fighting mom to be. If a mom can give birth to a baby with someone else's transplanted uterus, you can get pregnant with yours or get one that works. Dont give up on your dreams!
We’ll said 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you for your honesty when you said that you cannot improve your egg quality and that it's a waste of money. I learned the hard way, but I'm glad you're being honest in your video so other women don't learn the hard way like I did. Lots of heartache and wasted money trying to improve my egg quality with no results. I respect doctors when they're honest.
Your videos are so informative, and I love that you include scientific reports!
Love the straightforwardness of this doctor. Says what works and doesn't. Does use platitudes or sugar coat it.
Had my FET 3 days ago. Baby dust to all who are trying. :)
What a wonderful explanation doctor, now everything is understood. I thank you very much for your efforts in this video supported by pictures
Extremely expensive and stressful procedure but brings so much happiness when successful.
Right!! For women who are lucky enough to live in Illinois, the law requires that insurance pay for it
IVF is not the bed of roses. Noone ever told this. Here's some of my background. I'm 38, ttc for 3 yrs. Faced 2 chemical pregnancies. Was put on Clomid 50 but ended with another chemical. IUI #1 & 2 & 3 Purgon 150 & Clomid 100 BFN x3. IVF #1 - transferred 2 low grade morulas on day 5 - BFN. Donor egg cycle overseas. IVF#1 - transferred 1 grade 4AA embryo - BFN. IVF#2 - transferred 2 blasts. Got BFP on 6dp5dt!! 7wk 3d ultrasound - 1 heartbeat! IVF changed our lives and brought the happiness we've never experienced before..
Infertility TV really wow!! Wish I lived there when I did mine
@@InfertilityTV what kind of insurance? Can you buy your own private insurance then it will be paying for it ? Thanks, Mimmi
@@InfertilityTV they're so lucky. I just had a failed ivf 😭💔 but cannot really afford another round right now and I'm 40 😭😭
Thank you so much. We have got very crucial information about IVF procedure.. miracle of humanlife..
Just had my first ıvf transfer. Wish me luck 🙌🏾🙌🏾 ps ı had 8 eggs and only one was good for transfer. So i truelly believe even with ivf it can be a difficult progress
Update. We have a positive.. hopefully a full healthy pregnancy is awaiting us and i wish all the best to everyone who wants a baby.. sending baby dust your way
I will be praying for you.
@@michellewright3286 thank you Michelle. All prayers are welcome. ❤️🙌🙌
How is your pregnancy going so far?)
I just had a transfer last week, impatiently waiting for my positive test🙏
How did it go
You can't change what is already been made, but you maybe able to affect Something that is about to be made..
I understand that science is science. With that being said, children are expensive. Women are waiting until they are older because of various reasons. I had my daughter at 35 turning 36 and I plan on having another child within the next year or two. At this point I will be 39 turning 40. If IVF is the route any woman has to go then take that route and don’t feel bad about it. There are still woman in their 40s who are having healthy children without IVF and there are women in their 20s who need IVF.

As I'm an Embryologist I really Appreciate the way you explained,

Science is changing and improving every year, don't worry girls!
'We are more than a reproductive system dammit!'' - I definitely love this! I've always felt deffective because of my fertility issues. And long strugglings. And that I've been so miserable I couldn't give a baby to dh. I felt like I've failed every other thing the nature meant for me. This is so nice to see those hips of positive posts on here. This needs to be said aloud once more! We've been through 2 de ivf cycles abroad resulting in a little bean inside me..Had been waiting for this for ages!
True
Science is improving,but no use for all.
Good video
I'm gonna make sure I eat a healthy diet 3 month before my ivf
I'm on my 2nd round of ivf and I'm now doing icsi. I've got 4 fertilised and now on my 5 day wait for transfer. I'm so nervous and been scanning the Internet for help x
Explains well easy to understand
Cheers! Great content and well structured videos! Keep up the good work! :)
Thanks!
I love these videos. I love the way he explains everything about IVF. What I don't like at all is the name they have chosen for the channel. Why "Infertility TV"? It would be better "Fertility TV". Anyway, the videos are great; the information is straightforward but also without anaesthesia.
Infertility is the reason why IVF is done right?
this is the most thorough explanation Ive seen. My own doctor didnt break this down at all.
same
It is not your fault if your embryo doesn’t stick! (I was offended by the title lmao). Yes there is science with it but if you put in a good embryo you can’t do anything to make it be a success. Don’t give up. I never believed it would happen for me. I still think I am getting punked but am 12 weeks along now. I’m not an expert but just thought it is worth saying it’s not your fault.
Hey, just wondering i know that the older then woman the less chromosomes can be present hence why they have a higher risk of abnormalities does this also apply to woman who are young but have a low egg count?
This is so interesting, thank you so much sir, God bless you.
I'm thankful I did my PGS testing. I had 9 embryos make it to blastocysts. 5 were healthy and the other 4 had a ton of abnormalities. I even know the sex of my 5 embryos 🖤 and FET is better than fresh transfers. Talk to your doctor about FET. My doctor is now treating my endometriosis before we transfer. It's been a long process, but I'm so thankful they're doing everything they can to make it work.
Everything? Have you subscribed to InfertilityTV?
How are you doing now? I have endometriosis too! So wondering if iVf worked for you.
Hi Emily what treatment on you to treat endometriosis
Did you transfer yet? Was it a successful pregnancy?
Same here i have endometriosis on my right ovary,but it’s been removed(endometriosis) last 2019,its been a year now. May i know if what is the procedure you’ve been doing now to treat your endo? Please it would be a great help. Thank you and God bless
Great video, thank you for the info! ❤
Sr u have explained so well ....tq so much ...god bless you Dr.and may God bless ur hands . because a Dr is second to God .and u are the reason for many lives to be built and United and joy on their faces
Thank you for the video. It helps a lot
I had my first egg retrieval today & we have 32 eggs! 😭
I’m so nervous for my call tomorrow on how many are fertilized. 😫🙏🏻
How many fertilized?
How did it go?
I just had my inf . Found your vedio today . Greetings from Germany. Hope to meet my baby soon
Best of luck. I hope you hold your baby very soon
Iam going for it tomorrow , praying that all goes well
I want to know why ivf failed even after a successful embryo transplant in the system
hi dear doctor my question is if you want to do ivf should you use estrogen alone or progesterone together? for better implantation.
Greetings
Loved the information and presentation. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am turning 30 this year and am doing ivf because me and hubby are both beta thalassemia carriers. We did our ivf round a year ago and got 2 transferrable embryos. One is a thalassemia carrier but better embryo grade the other was thalassemia free but had a 5CB grading. I just did my FET 3 days ago and waiting for results. Anybody has tips on ways to help embryo to implant?
I had my eggs collected this morning and lucky I have 7 eggs and 6 embryos at the moment. Hopefully all of them will survive I will wanted to have a twin.
This morning collection and umyou alreasy have 6 embryos????😅😅😂 doesn't develope that quickly!!!
She means that 6 fertilized.
Very helpful info.. Thank u Doc.
Always welcome
Many RE's, including mine, are having their older patients take 75mg of DHEA a day to improve egg quality. Are you saying this is a waste of time & money?
Yep! That is exactly what I am saying czcams.com/video/2UsBjnhHnj8/video.html
when talking to our doctor, my husband and i noticed that it's the embryologist who's the most important then the doctor.
Really you need both. And nurses. And ultrasound techs. And somebody to draw blood. And someone to answer the phones. Well you get the idea....
Infertility TV , aside from the obvious necessity, yes those staff are needed. But I’m talking about when researching for a real good IVF clinic, all they say is research the good doctor. But sadly, we can’t compare the success rate of an embryologist & the way their lab handle the process of making the embryo.
Doesn’t it take ~3 months for an egg to finish maturing prior to ovulation? So wouldn’t it be possible to influence the quality as it completes development? Can you explain meiosis?
Unfortunately, no, its not possible
Dr. endometrium lining thin so before fet tips lining growth
Very informative.Thank you for this video
Glad it was helpful!
This is depressing! Think I shouldn’t have watched it.
Agree!! Omg
Absolutely
Love this video
Does Iron deficiency (ie if the mother's Hemoglobin test is 9) does that affect implantation negatively???
Low iron isn't good at all that was my problem and cycle stopped take vitamins w iron every day and the low iron will be ok
I am cnslt a Dctr.Dr tell bld checkup.tsh normal.amh level7.8.onece again I VF treetmnt.before ivf clip the tube.has tubel FAC tr.is this success sir.pls reply sir
Informative and discouraging, I wish I had more information when I was younger, now at 38 I'm struggling since I didn't know either that I have a very tight cervix that makes it more difficult but God is in control
You will still make it dont worry 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I had IVF when I was 28 and it failed... I had IVF when I was 38 and it worked..
Main thing is, "don't lose the hope"
i had ivf at 39 got one healthy baby
Key God is in control. Dont give up
Btw having a tight cervix doesn’t make your ivf more complicated
What's about if the dr stim you to much for ivf?i did ivf 3 times an it never stick i did it age 35?
This means that when they are about to transfer the embryo, they have an idea whether it is likely to stick or not? There were fragments of cells on the picture of both our embryos and both transfers ended up being unsuccessful. Last embryo transfer next week 🙏
Is PGS testing necessary for embryo adoption?
Going to be doing this and a nervous wreck it will not work ! What a stressful procedure.
how did it go?
THANKS FOR TEACHING US
What do you suggest if we are not allowed to do genetic testing of embryos in my country (Singapore)?
Really? i'm from malaysia n i didn't know in singapore,PGS are not allowed..couple days ago i did my ivf n my embryos will go for PGS testing bcoz in my 1st ivf,i failed 3 times FET. so,this time my new dctor asked for pgs testing to further study about the quality of my embryos..its so nerve wracking waiting for the update..
I had 4 IUIS and 2 IVF cycles, cant get even 1 healthy embryo...first cycle 12 eggs, 4 fertilized normal, 1 blastocyst on day 7 with an extra cromossom ,and seconf IVF 13 eggs,4 fertilized normal, no blastocyst....any recommendations?
Loved this information, thank dr.
Great information
3 miscarriages and trying ivf for the first time! Fingers crossed and praying 🙏
Egg extraction happens tmrw!!!!
How’s it go?!
how was it?
Results???
How was your journey?
Any luck??🤞🏾🤞🏾
Sir my sister is doing ivf.. she did it three times.. this time she conceived but now doctor is saying range is 80.. they said they'll check next month.. is it safe?? What to do??
Baby born ?
Very informative
Thanks
You explain very well.
@Infertility TV what is the purpose of the nutrients from food in terms of the body?
I wanted to know about any further side effects like malignancy in a patient who undergo ovum stimulation repeatedly
I have undergone egg retrieval thrice but none successful
Wanted to know if I can continue treatment or not
2 times FET with excellent grade embryos, but none of them implants 😢😢
Hi sir.
Can early blastocyst implant after transfer.
And sir do embryologist incubate it further before tranfer after freezing.
is fundal septum a reason for embryos to not stick ?
my first quality classified egg was transferred as embryo after the fifth day but I miscarried. what could it be?
If inner OS is tight , Does it cause infertility? HSG test not able to take due to tight muscles. With IUI not able to reach utereus since inner OS tight .
This is so helpful thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
How can I discuss my personal report with you... Kindly let me know
I wanna watch this video all day
Do it! Let us know how many times you were able to watch it
I'm a little bit confused about the egg quality part.
You talked about yoga, diet etc, but then you showed GonalF and said stop wasting your money.
Does this mean that the treatment with GonalF or similar does not help produce more or better egg?
I'm 40, started the IVF with GonalF
Produced 4 eggs, 3 where fertilised, 2 implanted. Did my Beta Hcg testing, started with a low 30 and 48h later hade 120..
I'm on progesteron and on the exact firts day on my cicle I started spotting.
If only a my doctor or any doctor said to me in my 20-30 that I should freeze my eggs...
Gonal F may help mature multiple eggs but it does not make "better eggs"
I wish I'd been told the same thing and had the money and support to do it.
Hello, thanks for the very interesting video. Could i ask a question please? I tried icsi twice in London at 38/39, 1st was a grade 1 6-day old blastocyst that was hatching. My uterus lining was fine, no problems whatsoever. It failed. Second transfer 2 months later, was a 5-day frozen embryo, did immune suppression as well, at ARGC London, failed again. 1 year later we found a surrogate, did icsi in Armenia, fresh embryo, 3-day old, it worked, she is 26 weeks pregnant now. So the issue wasnt egg quality. I don't have any problems apart from very heavy periods. Could menorrhagia be connected to failed implantation? Many thanks.
Not unless menorrhagia is due to abnormalities like fibroids, polyps or endometritis
I had a 6ba normal embryo and I went through the ERA procedure and I didn’t even get a positive pregnancy test after my embryo transfer. Please tell me what went wrong. I also have a history of ovarian endometriosis but I had surgery for it 6 months ago to remove it. I really need help.
There are many possibilities. A doctor will need to review your entire medical history closely to make recommendations
Had 3 ivf cycles had healthy eggs and divided perfectly 3 transfer but no luck my embrio dint implant still trying
My first ivf failed because of difficult embryo transfer. I think my uterus is retroverted or tilted. Is there anything that can be done to change the shape. In so stressful n broke
Tilted uterus does not affect your ability to get pregnant as long as the doctor can do the transfer. New doctor?
Make sure your doctor does a hysteroscopy. They can see how the inside of your uterus is shaped. Mine was a U1 dysmorphic which was T shaped and I had a metroplasty done to correct it. A ultrasound is not the best way to check for this.
I love your videos
That was informative but brutal. However I would trust a specialist that is so straight forward.
May i ask: could there be good embryo from the same donor that two already failed? Tnx🙏
6AB grade 7 day embryo, PGS tested normal, 10.0 mm lining, hormones at perfect levels, ERA done to confirm receptivity, hysteroscopy done to ensure uterine health, thyroid levels perfect, transfer went smoothly, 5 days prednisone, 1 ml PIO daily, estrodial patches. Still failed. What could have gone wrong? What did I miss or do wrong? It was my one and only embryo, my only chance. I don't have any children. I'm so devastated, I can barely breathe.
Yea OK oh wow! I’m so sorry- my story is the same as yours, only I have 14 embryos left. But that fact doesn’t lead me to get pregnant and actually carry past 8 weeks 🙁 the doctors can’t find anything wrong with me at all. Everything has been tested and every type of IVF procedure has been done- without any luck! It makes me sad too 🙁😕😟😔 (big hugs to you)
I know you're feeling we don't have enough money to do a second round she just had our first and only had two implantation only two survived the blastocyst stage and I don't know what went wrong still
It is 2:40 am in my local time sitting here on my sofa thinking I did everything thing including genetic testing 2 different protocols still no success I have 5 eggs left ! I praying that our doctors and scientists find solution for implantation and make our dream come true
That is something we all hope for
Hey just read ur post...how did u go ahead...
I have a question, what counts as a new cycle? Let's say they freeze some embryos. The one they did didn't work. The next time you try, do you have to pay 20k again to do it all over again?
I have the same question..
Where I live, it costs $2500 per embryo transfer.
My Husband and I had 7 blastocyst embryos that all looked good under the microscope. We have had 4 failed implantations now. Only 2 more embryos left. We have lost hope and $100,000. Will be transferring the final 2 in September. At the point of just wanting this to be over. We have no doubts that we won’t get to be parents.
Am praying for u sis
How did it go? Just curious did you test the embryos?
I hope you guys have had a positive outcome. ❤
Is it possible to implant for person that is indeed of it with thier sperm? In order to get money if im willing? Just a question or is it a crime to do so?
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
You need to name the channel fertility tv!
I think that name was taken when we started the channel
I agree.
would weight cause an egg not to stick as well? I'm on the obese side at looking into fertility options and I feel like no FS would even wanna consult with me until I drop about 100 pounds. granted I've seen women my size and heavier pregnant but theirs all happened naturally
I'm not sure we know the entire answer. One interesting study found that obesity altered which genes were activated in the uterine lining. This may contribute to the lower implantation rates and increased miscarriage rates seen in obese infertile patients

So interesting.
Hello where is the hospital you work located?
My first and second ivf failed, what will be the cost 😢
Can IVF prevent transfer of PCOS genes or Hirsutism to the child?
Good one thanks
Wow I wish I could afford to do ivf. So sad and stressful just thinking about how to go about it.
We're in the same boat. I will pray for you, if you pray for me :-)
How can be improved a good quality egg cell?
Hello sir I watch all your videos...I have a doubt doc says they have 3 embryos on Day 3 and 1 embryo at day 4..doc says they gonna place day 3 and day 4 embryo...am afraid and thinking of changing to day 5 embryo and transfer..what is your suggestion?
Hi,even i am in the same position.
I am 27 years old, doing ivf, next month is my embryo transfer, amh level is 4.4, we had issue with law sperm morphology but the embryos are first equality one, Will ivf succeed?
Sticky prayers for you.
My amh is 3.2. My husband sperm only 50 percent good. Low sperm. We kept on taking conception tablet and trying. I am 22 weeks pregnant. God willing,i ll deliver safely. You too keep on trying . You will be success. Keep praying.
We had low morphology too, but were successful with icsi fresh transfer. My perfect daughter is almost 2.

it's just so odd how we are all here knowing the odds. My mom had my sister at 40 all natural. My great grand-mother did it too.
My mom had me at 40 as well. So when i was in my 20s and early 30s i thought I had more than enough time to get pregnant. I started at 35, gonna be 39 in a few weeks. Still no baby. Docs tell me my eggs are like at the age of 45. So I'm taking all these supplements hoping to improve egg quality but i guess not. Seems like it is egg donor for me.
My parents figured they were done with kids, but I naturally popped up on my mom at the age of 47 and dad at 51!
