I have just recently moved back to the Lower Mainland (Coquitlam, BC). I would love to some advice about a good Gynaecologist and Endocrinologist in the Vancouver area. I don't mind traveling if they are really good. I have stage 4 Endo that has been 'under control' for the last 10 years or so with Yazmin BCP. I also have Hypothyroidism and High Blood pressure. 

 

I'm also wanting to start IVF in Victoria in the next couple of months. I have had 2 failed IVF cycles.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 


Me- 38 yers old/ Hubby- 44 years old
2000- Married (Hubby has great swimmers!)
2002- Endometriosis Diagnosis
2002-2012- Various Endo treatments
2009- Moved from Vancouver, BC to Abu Dhabi, UAE🇰🇼
2013- TTC (slightly cheaper and easier to access private services here than in Canada)
March 2013- HSG seems clear but questionable 
April 2013- IUI#1= BFN😥
May 2013- IUI#2= BFN😥
June- Sept 2013- Gonal-Peptyl protocol
Aug 2013- Bi-lateral hydrosalpinix = tubal cauterisation x2
Oct 2013- IVF#1- 2 grade AA , day 5 blasts + 1 ICSI/ 1normal + assisted hatching = BFP (Beta 100) Chemical😔
Dec 2013- IVF#2- 3 grade AA, day 5 blasts + assisted hatching= BFN (Beta 0) Not even a blip on the radar!😥
August 2014- Move back to Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦
March 2015- Essure placed in right tube because the cauterisation had cleared.
Nov. 2015- stimming with cysts on both ovaries and very low FSH. 10 eggs retrieved, 5 grade 19-20 frozen for FET
March 2016- FET#1 with 1 day 5/ grade 18 blast + ICSI + Intralipids + Superfact + Medrol + Estrace + antibiotics + acupuncture + assisted hatching = FET#1 BFN 😤
May 2016- FET #2 with 2 day5/grade 18 already hatching blasts. Same protocol as previous FET#1 = FET#2 BFN😡
July-August FET cycle- started cycle on Superfect, estrace, medrol, antibiotics, endometrial biopsy, and no Intralipids (reaction during last cycle) - cycle canceled due to thin lining
August FET cycle- plan is to try Provera + Letrozol (Femara)

I've heard the Victoria clinic is excellent.

 

You might want to consider excision surgery to remove all remaining endometriosis at: the BC Women's Centre for Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis. (See other recent threads on this topic here under Endometriosis.)
