I did my IVF#1 Jan/Feb and FET#1 June. Both ended with miscarriages. My local OB/GYN ordered karyotype, Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), among other tests of clotting disorders. Karyotype tests have not come back, other tests came back normal.
Just saw our RE on Friday (we are from out of province). If karyotype comes back normal, other than putting me on Metformin for PCO, he does not plan to do anything different. It will be the same antagonist protocol, even the same dosage of Gonal-F. He does not consider testing other possible immune issues and does not believe that anything can improve egg quality... If our genetics come back abnormally, the PGS will be the FISH method. I hear that CGH is more accurate...
We were contemplating on switching to VFC that takes immune issues seriously, but not really sure that's the best move. Switching clinics may take longer to do IVF#2 and current clinic is relatively more convenient for us.
We would highly appreciate you ladies' opinions.
Me: 367, DH: 478
