I have my IVF consult on Friday to discuss our protocol, cost, etc...I was just wondering if any of you might have any advice on which questions I should ask, or if there were any questions you forgot to ask and wish yup had. Any help would be greatly appreciated! This is a big step for us and I'm really nervous/excited. Thanks so much!
Re: IVF consult on Friday!
Will you do ICSI? If so, on how many eggs?
What is your RE's ideal number of eggs at ER?
Who makes the call for a 3dt vs 5dt and what are the requirements?
What are their standards for freezing?
Which protocol will you be on and why?
How many does your RE recommend you transfer?
That's all I can think of right now..
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
