I'm pp, forgot to add unexplained. Doc found some mild endo, and a possible blocked tube, but no real final conclusion. Excellent FSH.

Don't know the outcome yet. I am on day 10 after day 3 transfer. I have had a squinter faint line for 3 days it doesn't get any darker, i also got spotting (while being on progesterone), I am so freaking confused.

35 #1 ivf 23 eggs retrieved 18 fertilized transferred 3 day 3 embryos. none made it to day 5 for freezing

36 #2 ivf 18 eggs retrieved 14 fertilized transferred 4 day 3 embryos. none made it to day 5 freezing. Chemical pregnancy terminated at 1 month. Dr. said we had low quality eggs and recommended donor eggs.

39 #3 ivf. 20 eggs retrieved. 18 mature. 16 fertilized. 6 made it to day 6 for freezing. Waiting on genetic testing and then FET.

Been doing acupuncture to improve egg quality and sperm count/motility/morphology. and on diet of gluten free, dairy free and lots of supplements.

To add to what others have said, tubal issues


no, i have textbook 28 day cycles and and am healthy/fit. All testing has been normal on both sides.
We just can't seem to get pregnant.
Unexplained diagnosis.


I believe my case is a result of mild pcos and a husband who rarely puts out. He's a once a week type of guy. Given I'm probably not ovulating regularly there isn't a good chance I will ever get pregnant naturally if he will only do it once a week.


Same MO as you. unknown cause. first 2 ivf all embryos arrested and never made it to day 5 for freezing. tried acupuncture for 6 months. hubby's sperm count, motility & morphology improved. not sure it has impact on me. but 3rd ivf have 6 embryos made it day 6 for freezing and waiting on genetic testing.

Very confused about Doing PGD testing. Also heard that sometime doing a frozen transfer is better than fresh because body gets some rest. Is it true??


I did 2 cycles of fresh transfer and none making it to day 5 for freezing. First Dr said egg quality issue.

Changed clinic and new Dr explained frozen is better for several reasons. 1) body hormones go back to normal 2) all those shots may make lining weaker and baby may not stick 3) freezing process eliminates all the weaker ones so only strong ones are left 4) why transfer to only have chemical pregnancy and having to wait for body to recover before you can start another cycle 5) if no transfer you get part of your money back to start another cycle
