I am 39yrs old and getting married in August. My future husband and I really want children, but I had an eptopic pregnancy nearly 16yrs ago and then developed Polycystic ovary syndrome. Cursed or what? Since it is impossible for me to get pregnant in the conventional way, would embryo transfer be a viable option? My fiancee and I have discussed this and would prefer to start sooner than later…obviously, as according to one post I am over 35yrs and now considered to be ‘old’! Any information that is useful would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance

To Tigist, I’m sorry but since when are women over the age of 35 considered “old”? You should be mindful of women’s feelings when referring to them as old, it might be hard for some women just to turn 40 much less to be considered old. For the record, young women can have children with disabilities as well, although I understand that the risk is higher for women of non childbearing ages. Please keep this in mind.

I am a 25 year old female who want’s children with my long time boyfriend. At 22 years old I had a tubular pregnancy and my right fallopian tube was removed. The doctors said I must of had some infection that i did not know about. But I never had any pain and have never had any std’s until I had the surgery and after follow ups found out I have HPV. I had scar tissue on both my tubes and I had an x-ray done on the left fallopian tube. The doctors told me that it was blocked almost completely and that I would need to have IFV or adopt to have children. I have had severe menstral cramps my whole life and I used to vomit they were so bad. Now I just take over the counter medication to stop the pain and I no longer get sick. And endometriosis runs genetically in my family. So does infertility. I fear that I will never be able to afford this procedure and I really want children now. Every doctor I talk to dismisses my wishes and does not even regard the fact that I want children now. They think I am to young. I am not married and I don’t own my own home. I have a full time job but did not go to college. I am just wondering if anyone who reads this can give me some good advice and take me seriously because no one else does. It’s just the day I found out i was pregnant I had to have emergency surgery and found out I could not have children naturally ever. They took my tube and told me the other was worthless. I don’t know what to do anymore??? I love children and want to be a mom so bad. I have only been pregnant the one time and I….I just need some advice. PLEASE HELP ANYONE!!!!!

My Doctor told me, after the egg retrieval and ferilization, that i have 4 beautiful eggs that are growing very well, he even mentioned that after 3 days all of them splits into 8 cells already.
Me and my husband were planning to put 3 embryos as we really want to make sure at least one will survive. On the day of embryo transfer, our doctor advised us to put just 2 and freeze the other 2. This is because all my embryos are good and are growing well and that he is positive that i get pregnant even if we just transfer 2. He said he is not advise us to transfer 3 because there is a possibility that we get triplets since the embryos are growing well. And so we agreed to just put 2 embryos.

After 14 days from the transfer and the result is negative, the Dr said, when i get back to him, that its good he choose to put only one good embryo and one not so good because i have a better chance on my second try since i have one remaining good embryo. I was surprised because he never said that there were not so good embryos. The Doctor\’s comment after the negative test is totally different from what he explained to us on the day of the embryo transfer. Should he told us that we have only 2 good embryos and 2 not so good, we could have push through with our original plan to transfer 3 intead of 2.

When my husband called the doctor over his cellphone, he is already denying what he said about the conditions of the embryos before the transfer

After the first transfer and all that the doctor said during the procedures that is not inconsistent to what he is saying after the failure, we still don\’t know if we still going to believe him or not. It is very frustrating and disappointing.
