@au_chic: wahh sana sinabi ng mga nurse na i should take ibuprofen or mefenamic before endo scratch, tuloy napa aruy ako sa sakit hehe

Hi sis! Hindi rin ata alam ng mga nurse ito or hindi sya common practice sa kato. This is just what I advise a patient prior to a potentially painful procedure.

Kelan ulit embryo transfer mo? Baka next week ang next ko

[mamacita]

@au_chic: sis cancelled yung FET ko. Dapat bukas or thursday. Pero nung chineck hormones ko last monday mababa yung progesterone level ko. Eh CD15 na ako. So ayaw nila ituloy. So wait ulit ako ng CD12 sa next cycle ko ü and then dun ulit malalaman if mag FET or not.

^aww sorry to hear that sis at least safe sila embryos for now sa freezer 99+% naman ang survival rate ng embryo thawing sa kato

[Chicmunk]

@iHeartYah Salamat sa info! I hope this cycle will be it. All the best to you!

Hi mga sis!

I was having second thoughts to post an update because super floating pa rin status ko. I had another beta last Sunday. From 0.6 hcg, the level went up to 15.6. This is 10 days after my FET. Sabi ni Dr. Perillo, we will still continue treatment but I need to be back this Friday for another round of test. Hopefully, it will be a definitive answer na. I am still hoping that it will be positive but I'm getting worried because up to now, I'm not feeling any symptoms of pregnancy. How soon should you have symptoms ba? Maybe I'm overthinking this? 

Anyway, we are still praying that we could all be given the gift of parenthood this year. His will be done talaga.

Good luck to all us, girls!

Every pregnancy is different.  You may or may not feel any pregnancy symptoms.

Hi sis! Since mababa pa ang HCG mo, wala ka pa masydo mafifeel or wala pa pregnancy symptoms aside sa implantation spotting.
Ganyan din kasi ako. Mababa pa yung first beta. 1.9 naman ako pero 2nd beta ay 87. Then 3rd beta 910. HRT din ako sis. Satingin ko pag HRT parang ganyan mababa sa una kasi may mga kakilala din akong ganyan. Pero saakin naman naging ectopic..

And nagdodouble naman ang level ng HCG mo though medyo mababa pa. Pray lang sis. Medyo nakakstress talaga lalo na yung oag aantay para malaman kung tataas na level pero try to relax.

Hi everyone. Lumabas na yung HLA DQ Alpha and Beta test namin ng husband ko and we have 50% match. They didn't do yung LAD or LAT test because LIT is not allowed din naman. So that's the reason why mataas ang NK cells ko. So ipigsabihin Category 1 and 5 ang problem namin. Can you tell me what is KATO's opinion about immune issues? Intralipids and steroids ang magiging treatment ko. Alam niyo ba if MEL or which doctors do intralipids in Manila?  LIT lang ba ang treatment na ginagawa sa inyo for Category 1&5 issues or yung iba nag intralipids or IVIG din? Thanks.

Hi, sisses. May gumawa po ng Kato support group sa Facebook. Hindi pa ito searchable kasi kulang pa ng members. Anyone and everyone is welcome po. Paki-search na lang po si admin Deyot Pitong sa fb kung gusto po ninyo sumali sa discussion, or pm me your email add para ma-request ko sa admin. Thanks!

Hi everyone. I have been back reading and I see mostly IVF successful pregnancies - anyone here who was able to get pregnant with IUI?

[Praying Like Hannah]

Hi kuplet.
I had 5 IUIs from 3 different OBs, all unsuccessful.
Then my OB who also had difficulty getting pregnant recommended IVF.
1st try namin sa IVF sa Kato, positive =)

[angeleyes98]

Hi mga sis. Had my 4th bhcg and 2nd bscope after my FET kanina. Just want to share the great news. We're BFP!!! Thank you God for this wonderful blessing. 🙏🏽  GS was visible na and is inside the uterus. Hopefully next week, we can see the yolk sac na and then the heartbeat. I'm so thankful for this forum because of all the info you have all shared. Baby dust to everyone! ❤️❤️❤️

[Praying Like Hannah]

Congrats angeleyes98!!!
I remember, sabay tayo nag egg retrieval sa Kato.
Thank God BFP ka na din =)

Thanks, praying like hannah! I went back to KATO today. I'm now technically at my 6WD1 of my pregnancy. Dr. Ong-Jao found a yolk sac and heartbeat. Thank God! But the thing is, my HCG level is low. I'm just at 4,500 from 2,400 5 days ago. Also, my GS did not grow within the typical rate na 1mm/day. From 4.6mm, it's now at 7.1mm.   Dra. said that it is a cause of concern but it's still good that the embryo is developing. Hopefully, may definitive good news again on Saturday. Baka daw kailangan lang ng time ni Baby. Crossing my fingers!

Congratulations angeleyes98

[au_chic]

Congrats sis angeleyes!

This weekend ang beta hcg ko. I just switched to glycolic acid facial was and azelaic acid cream (ang mahal omg) since the embryo transfer.

Hay ang mahal pala ng Laser-Assisted Hatching. Almost 20k. Tractocile (Atosiban) was also given to me via the IV route to prevent uterine contractions. Another 20k. Buti na lang natural cycle this time 

[joanner1983]

Congrats mga sis! Sad day for me, hindi tumuloy sa blastocyst. I have to wait for my next cycle again. Hindi ako makaiyak. Its my first time sa IVF and hindi ko alam kung bakit hindi tumuloy or kung eggs ko ba ang mali? Ang hirap... 😢

[ttc4abb]

Hello, i'm new sa thread and been reading for quite sometime now. And ang question ko ay never bang naging issue sa mga hubby nyo ang male OB? Hesitant kasi si hubby. Gusto nya sa female ako rin naman kaso i don't have a choice kapag sino  yung nandun sa kato ng time ng appointment sya ang titingin. any comment and suggestion? Thank you!

[jaggedlilpill5]

ttc4abb Hi Sis! Not an issue for us. Sabihin mo lang sa hubby mo, hindi naman itotouch ng OB ang private part mo with his hands.
