In general, if a certain protocol isn't working, we may consider trying a different protocol. For instance, if you were on oral contraceptive pills pr...

Re: Hgh ad hcg
By hgh, do you mean human growth hormone? If so, it depends on where you've obtained the growth hormone from. Some illegal manufacturers of growth hormone have hcg in their products. If the human growth hormone was prescribed by a physician and obtained through a reputable pharmacy, then it should n...

Re: IVF or Vasectomy Reversal?

Re: 2nd Beta test

In this situation, some options to try include letrozole, clomid, a lower dose of FSH, or IVF. Your reproductive endocrinolog...
