Yesterday was my embryo transfer, I decided to do IVF abroad due to financial reasons and apparent better outcomes. I flew from the US to Turkey for my frozen and transfer of two untested day five embryos. My doctor came in and he said they took two out of the freezer and one of them didn’t look that good, and he said he was concerned and even recommended transferring 4 embryos…
In the end, he advised that we take all five of my untested embryos out of the freezer and assess which two are the strongest to transfer. We transferred 2 that he chose. Today I’m learning two out of the five arrested., he said the third looked iffy, but I requested they freeze it anyways. Now he’s telling me it’s very uncommon for this to happen and he’s concerned of low embryo quality.
I need some guidance here. I have no idea how to move forward or how to feel confident in the transfer I did yesterday.
Just some backstory 29F 36M secondary unexplained infertility, we conceived naturally and have a four-year-old child.
Please be kind im really in need of help here.

Hi! Looking for some advice…

I did my ER in Turkey and unfortunately had to have my fresh transfer cancelled due to OHSS risk. Now we are planning to go back for a frozen transfer.
They freeze 2 embryos in each vial so we have the option to transfer both or transfer one and refreeze the other.
Anyone experience this before? What should we do in this situation? Also to add - We were advised by our doctor not to do PGTA testing.

We’re considering transferring 2 to not risk losing the other embryo if needs to be refrozen also so we won’t need to keep traveling from the US and Turkey. The plan is for a more natural transfer- not exactly sure what this means!
Any advice for improving our chances of success would be appreciated!

Hi! This is my first ever post on here. I am here looking for support…
I am 29 F and 36 M, diagnosed with unexplained secondary infertility. We conceived 4 years ago naturally and have been trying for 2.5 years.
We live in the US, had done 3 failed IUIs here and prior to that 7 rounds of timed intercourse with letrozole.
We couldn’t afford IVF in the US so we pulled the trigger and went abroad to Turkey and started the IVF process there
I did about 11 days of stims 13 follicles retrieved and only 6 were mature… unfortunately and 5 were fertilized with ICSI
After this, I had to go home and I’ve been an anxious mess waiting to hear about my day 5 embryos. I’m so confused about my numbers and it’s really beginning to affect my mental health. Can somebody please give me some reassurance also, how to cope through this waiting time?
