This is the real settling down





I am perhaps affected by my original family, and thus I always have a dream about owning my sweet home. In this dream, I have a dearest husband, two adorable angels, and a cozy house. When I went out alone every weekend, I saw so many pictures on the street—young couples with their baby strollers. These were the most beautiful scenes in my mind.

1. Load the medicine cartridge
2. Check the prescribed dose
3. Place the needle on the pen

4. Inject the medicine

More details about the injections are as follows,

It is one kind of short-acting recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH), and is mostly injected daily.


It is one kind of short-acting rFSH, and is mostly injected daily.



It is one kind of long-acting rFSH, and it supports multi-follicle growth up to seven days.



It is one kind of short-acting recombinant luteinizing hormone (rLH), and is used in the patients with lower serum LH levels.



It is a short-acting GnRH antagonist, and is used in the patients with higher serum LH levels to prevent premature LH surge.

Q&A of Egg Freezing




时钟, 时间, 手表, 纪念碑, 时间的测量, 小贴士, 小时, 时钟的盾牌, 经过的时间, 时钟小贴士

l   Q and A:

1. Do I have enough eggs to cyropreserve?
A. The amount of female oocytes is decreasing with the maternal age. The cut-off value of the decline rate is around the age 35: the rate is comparative faster in the women over 35  than those under 35. AMH is a stable and representative predictor: higher the level is, more the oocytes are.

2. Will the controlled ovarian stimulation affect my own ovarian function?
A. The components of stimulation medication are recombinant gonadotropins, which play the similar roles of external hormones to support multiple follicle growth. If no medications were used, the external hormone can only support a single follicle growth, called as the dominant follicle, and the other subordinate follicles (15-20 varied with the age) will degenerate in this menstrual cycle.

3. Will the stimulation medication push me toward the menapause faster?
A. Since the medications just rescue the subordinate follicles to become dominant, no additional stock are triggered. So the answer is "no."

4. Is it painful to get the injection?
A. Most injections are subcutaneous, and the injection site are at lower hip or lower abdomen, where are not hypersensitive.




5. Is the retrieval operation difficult?
A. Since the introduction of sonographically guided viginal oocyte retrieval, the double-lumen needle can go through the route without penetrating the hypersensitive areas, and the diameter of needle is greatly reduced. The anesthesia is recommended in the nervous cases.
