Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Anonymous's discussion 'Clomid and IUI'
Hello and welcome to Fertile Grounds. These follicle sizes are most certainly normal early in a Clomid cycle. It sounds like you just need some more time for us to see how your ovaries are responding to the medication, particularly if…

Hello and welcome to Fertile Grounds. Thank you for posting your question, it is one that we encounter frequently at our practice. Deciding between Natural cycle IVF and stimulated IVF often depends upon a number of factors. …
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to George's discussion 'Minimal Stimulation IVF or Natural Cycle IVF'
Measuring the ovarian reserve is difficult, and FSH levels at the beginning of the menstrual cycle are known to fluctuate. A level of 10 can be normal or slightly elevated depending upon the laboratory reference values, but certainly is a…

Hi George. Welcome to Fertile Grounds. Thanks for sharing your question, it's a good one. Without knowing more about your exact situation it is difficult to say why that treatment was recommended for you. Minimal…

Dr. Andrea Reh replied to anonymous's discussion '2 miscarriages'
I would recommend having the bacterial vaginosis treated but I do not believe it was the cause of your miscarriages. After having two miscarriages I would recommend having a full evaluation done by a fertility specialist for other possible…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to anonymous's discussion '2 miscarriages'
Hello. It is unlikely that a yeast or bacterial vaginosis could cause a miscarriage. A "tilted uterus" is usually normal - most women have a uterus that is tilted in one direction or another and that "direction" in of…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Sarah's discussion 'Lamotrigine'
Hello & welcome to Fertile Grounds. Thank you for your question. I am unaware of any studies linking lamotrigine specifically to outcomes with ovarian stimulation, although I would echo Robin Webb's responses with regard to its…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to anonymous's discussion '2 miscarriages'
Hello and welcome to Fertile Grounds. Thank you for sharing your question. I am so sorry to hear about your losses. After two miscarriages I would strongly encourage you to see a specialist for a more thorough evaluation to…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Anonymous baby hope's discussion 'At home Fertility kits'
Welcome to Fertile Grounds! There are a lot of different over-the-counter tests for infertility emerging these days, but they often vary in their accuracy. Over the counter kits can detect whether or not you are ovulating and help to…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Nicole's discussion 'Vitamins/Supplements'
Thank you for your question. As with many herbal remedies and medications, there are not a lot of solid studies that have examined the effects of these often non-FDA approved treatments on fertility and pregnancy. In other words, I…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Anonymous's discussion 'Why ICSI'
Such a great question! ICSI - or intracytoplasmic sperm injection - is a very useful technique during IVF that traditionally was used for couples with very low sperm count or with a history of no fertilization during IVF. However,…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Anonymous's discussion 'Infertility in men'
The costs of a semen analysis vary, and to be honest I'm not the best person to ask. I would advise you to give our billing office a call and they would be happy to help you, and perhaps see if your insurance would be able to pay for it…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to Anonymous's discussion 'Infertility in men'
Hi there! Without knowing much more about you, it is hard to say. Citalopram can create problems with having intercourse (libido and ejaculatory dysfunction) but not necessarily with sperm quality. I am not sure about the other…
Dr. Andrea Reh replied to JL Leo's discussion 'NC-IVF with Letrazole'
Hi there! Using Letrozole does act in a way as stimulation to the ovaries, much like other drugs. To be a "purist", using any type of stimulation drug would not be a "natural" cycle, but probably more in the category…

BabyOrBust replied to Anonymous's discussion 'Low count sperm count'
Hello Anonymous,
Your story sounds like mine. However, I am currently 19weeks pregnant yesterday. I am having a girl. My husband not only had low sperm count but low everything. I did not have insurance to cover IVF. I went to another fertility…

Robin Webb R.N. replied to Anonymous's discussion 'Clomid and IUI'
The goal for ovulation induction is one dominant follicle to emerge, and it sounds like you are on track. Sometimes it can take longer for patients with PCOS so hang in there, and good luck with tomorrow's scan.
Clomid and IUI

Thanks for your comment Dr. G!
Sorry for the delay, I had to take another dose of methotrexate because my beta leves were not dropping appropriately. Geeeeez.
I picked donor egg over adoption or gestational carrier because of the opportunity to…

Low count sperm count
We are trying to decide between NCIVF or regular IVF for our next step. The only thing identified wrong with us is a low sperm count (12 million) which doesn't seem like a low number to me, but I'm not an expert. We have done 3 IUI's without success, and our insurance doesn't cover either type of IVF so what should we do?See More
