#njcurj#IVF Journey The road leading to IVF is different for every woman. I had the opportunity to sit down with a young lady age 23. Her IVF Journey was unexpected as she seemed healthy. She was married and wanted to become pregnant. After countless attempts and failure.

#njcurj#IVF The couple sought help. Her OBGYN informed the of the unexpected news that she had blockage and unable to conceive naturally. The doctor then advised that she may be a candidate for IVF. She was given by her doctor the IVF clinic information to further discuss

#njcurj#IVF she, her husband and doctor called for a scheduled appointment at well known IVF clinic. Within two weeks she received her confirmed appointment at the IVF clinic. She unfortunately did not educate herself on the IVF procedure nor did her husband.

#njcurj#IVF they blindly went into their appointment and also needed to confirm if she was a true candidate for the IVF procedure. They advise her on the different types of testing that needed to be done, in addition to the cost of the various testing and procedure.

#njcurj#IVF after speaking with the IVF consultant she received a small portfolio on the IVF procedure. She and her husband view the portfolio home to discuss theirs options. After the reading the cost like - the consulting fee, IVF cycle with fresh eggs, IVF cycle freeze all

#njcurj#IVF IVF cycle freeze all with biopsy and ccs/ PGT - A also frozen embryo transfer totaling roughly $62,000. their next mission was to confirm if their insurance was in fact cover some or all of the IVF expenses. The IVF clinic assisted her and her husband with

#njcurj #IVF completing the insurance forms. The IVF clinic advised them that they would follow up with them directly once they have received an update from the insurance company. After Several weeks they received an answer with the insurance company confirming that they would

#njcurj #ivf cover 100% of the procedure. The couple did not prepare themselves for the mental and physical aspect of going through the IVF process. they were only knowledgeable of the information provided by the IVF clinic. Self-education of the IVF process and procedure is

#NJCUrj #IVFjourney extremely important to all parties looking for help with pregnancy i.e the medical, the emotional, the physical, and the mental. This is important because once you start this process and procedure without having knowledge can be more stressful on your body

#njcurj #ivfjourney #ivf she and her decided to proceed with the IVF process. The series of medication was a process of injections in the abdomen and buttocks. this was done to stimulate the ovaries to make more eggs. her husband was put through the process of sperm counting.

#njcurj #ivfjourney #ivf it was determined that her uterus was healthy and ready to transfer the fertilized egg. The egg was successfully planted and awaiting the results. After a few weeks she had blood work done which determine her to be pregnant.

#njcurj #ivf #ivfjourney the procedure was a success. She was then monitored to see how the baby was growing. She was mentally and physically drained during the pregnancy in addition to being highly emotional. This caused a lot of stress on the couple.

#njcurj #ivf she went to the doctor she inquired about her emotional and mental health. The doctor advised her that this was common for first time pregnancy especially via IVF. Nine months later she had a healthy baby who is now six years old.

#njcurj #ivf be sure to self educate yourself on the IVF process and procedure to be fully aware and equipped for your physical, emotional and mental well-being throughout your pregnancy. #jmusial #njcurj #ivf
