Pro Tips for How to Have the Best Egg Retrieval Experience

OMG, I wish I had seen this before my retrieval 2 weeks ago - we totally had a sperm emergency!

Thanks Dr. Aimee! My wife and I are sooo happy to have found your "channel"! Your messages are amazing and have made our journey (we found you just as we began ivy meds) so much more understandable. We find ourselves constantly hitting the re-wind button partially because we want to hear things again and mostly because we can't stop laughing. We are headed into our Egg Retrieval on Friday so this episode was right on time. Your voice is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your videos! I'm 40 doing my first ivf. Do you perform more fresh or frozen embryo transfers in someone my age?

Good content

This video is very useful and you have a good sense of humor. Thank you very much!

Great content - I'm doing my egg retrieval tomorrow! Thanks

How about the weight gain? If I am just freezing my eggs for now, what happens? I mean I’m not even 18 yet and I heard that there is bloating afterwards and I have really bad experience with bloating. What should I except?

We are So grateful for your love 🥰 Dr Love!

how many days aftr egg retrieval will get regular menstruation ??

7 th IVF, always end up with same result and bad egg quality. 7-8 mature eggs and 2 fertilize endup being barely Ok quality. on supplements like Ubiquinol, Acai, R lipoid acid, folic acid. Vitamine E, C and D.. what would u recommend at this point?

The underwear comment... ha ha ha

So informative. IVF clinics have so many patients I guess they don’t have time to explain to each person like you do. Thank you.

Is that good idea to get enough eggs before to do transfer ?

I’m possibly doing my egg retrieval this week. First blood test and scan tomorrow eek! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

Hello my doctor told me I have to take the trigger a exactly time is okay if I did 2 minutes after v ?

Hi there is the vaginal bleeding normal during IVF stimulation?

I will have my egg retrieval by next week but here in Japan the doctor said I will be awake during the egg retrieval . Is it normal ? And he is predicting he will probably retrieve 10-15 eggs .. is it normal that I’m awake , he have mentioned I’ll be in local anesthesia

Unfortunately for me, I have to do over the egg retrieval process. All my 6 eggs had time ovulated! They said it was the timing of my shot, they may have to do it shorter than 36 hours next time. :(

Thank you Dr. Aimee for this video. Wishing to meet you for my pregnancy journey.

God bless you dr

Doc you are a blessing to this generation. I was afraid of IVF but I will go into it .

Dr you are really a genius.

I did IVF and we are going through a crazy experience our IVF Doc said on our first sonogram “ Oh sorry whatever I put in there must have fizzled out” ok great well this was August 17,2022 well my OB has found a gestational sac and she refuses to ruled it out as a blighted ovum since is measuring smaller than the IVF dates is actually a week behind. I have my tubes tied so nope I didn’t conceive on my own I also didn’t have sex. Well I started spotting yesterday.

Dr Amiee. I had a follicules 9 of them before my trigger shot and on my egg retrieva day they told me i only have 3 eggs is there a reason for that?

No one should do this unless thy work out what thy will do with remaining embryos first. Completely unethical to play dice with embryos.

Am 40 year old am not having my period but am having cramps is it possiable for me to have a child

Dear Dr. Aimee, thank you! I have my egg retrieval tomorrow so it was so great to be able to watch this :)  Love all your videos I've been totally into them since going through this IVF process, very helpful indeed. Not to mention you crack me up! I was thinking (why wouldn't she wear underwear?) - I was a little slow on the joke. LOl. Anyway, I like how you address anxiety as I def had some early on but after talking with my Dr. I felt much better. And not so much appettie these last days before ER either.  I've felt pretty good during my stims but these last few days pretty tired and boobs hurt. You mentioned that your boobs might hurt "after" egg retrieval. Is it a bad sign if they hurt before ER? I only ask because they're usually sore after I ovulate. So I'm hoping that I didn't Ovulate and have some come out already- sketch.
