Hey Leasha,

Here's my answers quickly, but others may wish to elaborate:

- The pill is to regulate the menstrual cycle so that an AC cycle can commence at a certain time. At least in our case this is what happens.

- IVF is where the best sperm and eggs are placed in the same dish and left to do their thing. ICSI is where the sperm is injected directly into the egg. This is done either because of the quality of the sperm (ie, limited motility, other defects) or where the egg is difficult to penetrate. Basically, IVF and ICSI run exactly the same except the meeting of the sperm and egg is different.

Hope this helps
