Hi Dr Sher, I’ve just had a failed medicated FET. I have now stopped all medication and am waiting for my period to start. I want to do my next transfer as quickly as possible and I’m keen to try a modified natural FET. I have two questions on this: 1. Can I go straight

I am 41.5 with DOR. I’m desperately looking for advice on what would be the right protocol. I don’t believe BC helps me. I had 2 months cancelled when on it for cysts. 1 estrogen producing and the other was not so aspirated and started with Protocol #2. I’ve also tried a lupron micro dose

Hi Dr Sher, I wish you had never left South Africa, as that is where I am from. I am 33 years old, we went to do ivf as my fiance is paralysed. He was placed on meds to improve sperm quality and a TESA procedure was done, they got 12 straws. First fresh transfer

Hi Dr Sher, I hope this message finds you very well! I’m turning 44 soon and have finished the embryo banking process (2 euploid embryos + 7 LLM embryos). Clearly I’m unlikely to retrieve any more euploid embryos at my age. I’ve completed two FETs unsuccessfully with untested embryos, assume reason for failure was embryo

Dear Dr Sher, I am currently 8+2 pregnant following our final FET with our last euploid embryo. It was a natural FET. My 8 week scan showed everything to be on track with no obvious concerns. My IVF clinic say to stop all progesterone at 10 weeks (I’m on 3 x lubion and 3 x
