Brief Answer: normal Detailed Answer: Hi Your husband's report is normal. You should not have undergone Laparoscopy so early as you are only 25 years old. The injections you are receiving are high dose used for IVF and expensive. Let me know which hospital you are taking treatment. If possible please change over to a good ivf centre in your place who can do proper scans and do justice. You should get more eggs with these injections. Please see good ivf centre for scan today and take second opinion. Let me know if you have any more questions. Regards Dr. Mahesh Koregol IVF& Infertility Specialist

Brief Answer: antral follicle count Detailed Answer: Hi Do you still have PCOS on ultrasound scan. Please attach a copy of your scan report at the beginning of cycle to check for antral follicle count. Means how many eggs are seen in each ovary. There are 2 possibilities for not ovulating now: 1) Your ovaries are damaged during endometriosis surgery and excess ovarian tissue removed. 2) Your ovarian stimularion is not in right direction. It is difficult for me to comment unless I do scan and see. Therefore I suggested to see another doctor ivf centre for second opinion. Please get serum AMH blood test done soon. See another ivf centre today without wasting time. Regards

Brief Answer: Long time Detailed Answer: Hi, Since you have received decapeptyl long time back in August, you should have got periods by now. If you have not got means you might have prolonged suppression of hormones. If your follicles dont grow, next time you take medicines from your doctor to get cycles and then start injections for IUI.

Brief Answer: IUI Detailed Answer: Hi You can try IUI. But if you get more eggs while getting injections you can opt for ICSI. So ask doctors to start iui stimulation next cycle with higher dose. Regards

now i had bad hot flushes , i am suprised how decapeptyl 11.25 which i took in 29 august still in my system , i am really tired from this hot flushes , no libido , vaginal dryness , please advice me
doctor
Answered by Dr. Mahesh Koregol (13 minutes later)
Brief Answer: no Detailed Answer: Hi this hot flushes maynot be due to decapeptyl. It was taken long time back. Since you were on high hormonal doses, this is seen during stimulation with hormones in some women. Hence wait patiently for the hormones to wean off from body. Mean while drink lot of water and liquids like juice, butter milk etc Regards

Brief Answer: test Detailed Answer: Hi Urine pregnancy tests are not reliable some times. Hence I request you to get serum beta hCG blood test which is confirmatory for pregnancy. Urine pregnancy rest strips are not always reliable. Regards Dr. Mahesh Koregol

but i think that clear blue digital is reliable ? ok please Is progylatun effect on clear blue digital ovulation result ?
doctor
Answered by Dr. Mahesh Koregol (7 minutes later)
Brief Answer: yes Detailed Answer: Hi You are right. This medicine does interfere in ovulation test. But then not always. But lets think positive and keep trying. Hope ovulation really happened when you did test first time. Second time hormone strength may not have been sufficient to give positive result. Hence there is possibility that positive test is right. Hence start trying now. Regards
