Thank you so much for those videos!! I have completed my first cycle of egg freezing and wish I had watched these useful videos before starting my treatment.

[@drlorashahine]

Congratulations! Thank you so much for your kind words

I just stumbled on this video. I'm 39 single but hoping to find the right guy and get married. I have started the egg freezing process waiting on my AMH level and praying that all goes well. Thank you for your videos, it has been an emotional ride so far but I'm grateful.

[@drlorashahine]

Thank you so much for watching Mena! I wish you all the best on your journey

Thanks for that information, I just realized in todays video you’re in my area. I’m having a second round of IVF for eggs retrieval next month after a failed one. This will hopefully be followed by L. myomectomy. Your videos on injections are helpful.

[@drlorashahine]

Best wishes to you!!

[@helenso93]

Thanks for the amazing videos with easy to understand information. Would highly appreciate if there are time stamps for easy referral :).

[@drlorashahine]

Thank you... I've added in time stamps as a pinned comment and within the description area :)

[@ninalili8109]

@@drlorashahine time stamps is super useful. Thank you!

I am about to complete testing before a first cycle but I am still so unclear about the process, thank you for this video! I’ve learnt when ovaries are expected return to normal size for a start:)
Does using oral birth control suppression before the stimulation optimize mature eggs retrieved in a statistically significant way? I’ve been worried about this. Given a choice to use birth control before or to skip and go to stimulation directly how should one decide? I was given both options

[@drlorashahine]

Thank you so much for watching! This is a great question. I would advise you to consult your medical provider, as I can't give medical advice to personal situations on social media. I have a lot of content on the subject on this channel, website drlorashahine.com, CZcams and Instagram account @drlorashahine that are great sources for you

Hi Dr. Shahine, I would like to know How Long is Too Long to Keep IVF Embryos Frozen in terms of successful pregnancy?

[@drlorashahine]

There is no 'shelf life' for frozen eggs. The longest an embryo was frozen, thawed, transferred and resulted in a life birth was 29 years! This happened in the UK in few years ago.
