How IVF screwing my life?
I'm doing my IVF for the first time at SUNFERT Bangsar South under Dr. Wong Pak Seng. My ovary was stimulated last year and i have gotten myself
14 follicle harvested
12 were fertilized
6 were good and moderate grade
6 were frozen.

3 days after the ovum pick up, i had a blood test to see if my hormone was stable enough for a fersh cycle / embryo transfer. It turned out that my progesterone were too high. Doctor decided to perform a frozen transfer the following month. We used up two and left with 4 to keep. It was fail.

This year, 2016, we decided to do anther FET. we have selected 2 moderate embryo. One embryo did not make it, after the thawing process, the grade went down and not good enough to join the party. So they thawed another one, and left just one to keep.

So today is day 12 after the transfer. We woke up at 6.30 and headed to Sunfert at 7 a.m. It was rush hour and took us 1 hour to get to Bangsar. After approaching the receptionist saying that we have a beta test, she called one of the nurse to attend me. Afraid that i would do some fainting drama during the blood drawing, I brought myself a cup of hot Milo in the thermos. It didn't take long then we were given another appointment to see Dr Wong 2 hours after that. we went to old Bangsar and had breakfast at mamak. At this point, i already belasah minum teh tarik. Semua pantang larang mak nenek Im going to throw out of the window, today!...because the brown discharge was getting darker each day.

Actually i have taken several pregnancy test and knowing that i have spotting, 90% of me saying its negative. So, this is really bad example of behavior. Don't do this TTC.

We came back to the clinic, waited an hour. The moment our number pop out, i asked my husband to go first, to enter the room. When i saw the doctor's face, I knew its negative. So he break the news. He did not know what was the problem and he said my lining of uterus was beautiful with 8.5 mm and has 3 layers. (Meaning it was perfect home) . He said the process of the transfer was "EASY" , "NO BLOOD" was seen.. (Some difficult transfer has low chances) . The embryo was placed 1.5 cm (which was the best location he believes). At last he said, maybe the embryo was not good because in one batch of ovum, we don't know which one is good even-though with good grades. Grading was based on physical appearance of the embryo.

I was offered with two options
1. New cycle with long protocol followed by frozen transfer.He said this will make me have more eggs.
2. Another Frozen embryo transfer with the only embryo that i have. The embryo is moderate grade. chances of pregnancy is 22%.

As he felt sorry for us, he offered a discount for that two options. A couple of grant off.
