Thank you very much for your replies.It's really good to be able to speak with people who do this as well.
KW: I agree with you I think PICSI is a special way of screening the sperm before ICSI but I don't really understand how it works will ask my Doctor when I speak to her.
WTH: The 15% is only a very rough guess which I made after my doctor showed me some figures of the PGD cycles of women of my age last year. The way I understand it the challenge will be to have an embryo to transfer. My genetic condition is a dominant condition so statistically 50% of the viable eggs I produce will be screened out as they will have the condition. I am not sure how the PGD works that you describe but hopefully it means you have to screen out o a smaller percentage. Good luck with you talk to the FS and the SCSA
Hi Tam: We're in the same boat my partners result was similar. Good luck with the SCSA results!
Went to the baseline ultrasound today and had a real fright. The technician said she only saw one follicle in one of my ovaries and none in the other. Thankfully she then got the doctor who saw another one or two in the first ovary and detected that what the technician thought was the second ovary was actually something else and then found the second ovary which had four to six follicles. That's probably not very good either but I was much happier with that result as just one! It was just the fourth day of my cycle so hoping that when I really got for IVF next month with all the hormones it may be a few more which would be great.
