Re: Understanding live births per transfer

Thanks, Dr. Wisot, that's great to hear. A thought about the figure, it might be easier to interpret if the title were changed to "2008-2012 Percentage Live Births per Transfer ..." or if the y-axis units and data labels had a percent symbol added. Thanks again. https://mail.google.com/mai...

Understanding live births per transfer

Hi Dr. Wisot - I'm hoping you could help me understand the "Live Births per Transfer" figure here: http://www.reproductivepartners.com/ivf-success-rates/southern-california-ivf-success-rates.html. For the younger than 35 years group, does this mean that there were 54 live births for 573 tr...

Max number of Clomid cycles?

Am aware that taking Clomid for over one year is a risk factor for low malignant potential ovarian tumors, but I haven't found a number for relative risk. I asked my doctor if there was a max number of cycles for which Clomid is recommended and I was told that it depends on the reason for not gettin...

Re: PGD and chromosomal analysis results

Thanks, Dr. Wisot. In regards to age, I'm 31 and my husband is nearly 40. We conceived on our own the first time. This last pregnancy, we used Clomid, trigger shot, and IUI after three cycles with Clomid alone. We'd like to try IUI again. Would your recommendation be different? - Would injectibles p...

Re: PGD and chromosomal analysis results

Chromosomal analysis results showed four copies of two different chromosomes. A few questions: 1. Does this sort of abnormality increase the likelihood of a future genetically abnormal pregnancy? 2. Is this problem independent of poor egg quality or sperm fragmentation? 3. This is my second early pr...

PGD and chromosomal analysis results

Is the PGD/PGS process informed by chromosomal analysis of the products of conception from a previous miscarriage? Or is there a standard protocol for all PGS?

How is PCOS dx'ed?

What constellation of symptoms leads to a PCOS dx? My USes (at Reproductive Partners) have shown that my ovaries have a polycystic appearance, my unmedicated cycles are 40+ days long, and since coming off oral contraceptives, I've developed acne along my jawline. But at this time, no PCOS dx has bee...
