[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When comparing SG to CFA, SG is the clear winner. But after multiple failed cycles and the same protocol, I really feel like I need a new clinic.

I met with Dr. Abassi and right off the bat she said she wouldn't be using the same protocol I was on at SG and would explore all my baseline immune numbers. I am nervous to leave SG given their success rates in general, but I don't know how many more cycles it would be worth doing there if nothing changes. It seems it is a numbers game there- keep doing IVF and eventually something will stick.

Our original diagnoses was MFI and so we lack high quality embryos, but in the last year I have had two miscarriages from cycles and two BFNs from cycles. I am 37 and have Hashi's. Where else should I be looking?

If you left SG, where did you go, why and did you have more success?[/quote]

I am wondering exact same thing but on the other end - I did once cycle with SG which was way too oversupressing and overstimming, and since then did 2 more at CFA.  With CFA I felt that all the testing I wanted to do was considered and done, which was very comforting. We uncovered a couple of issues but in the end addressing them did not lead to success. I loved shorter wait times for monitoring and the flexibility of approach.  In SG I've ran into a very rigid cookie cutter approach and cattle like scenes during monitoring.

My worry about CFA is their embryology, but I don't have anything specific on this, just a hunch.  And of course SART numbers - for my age group they are very very bad. I thought about going back to SG, but while there are certain things I can tweak (meds) others like when they trigger and on what day to transfer are still rigid, so that's what's stopping me at the moment.[/quote]
