VK replied. I had PCOS and was trying for 3YRS w/o result... I went DR Kaberi Bannerjee at MAX Panchsheel and she got it right for me in my first IUI cycle.. before i did go to many other doctors with no result. check on her she is expensive because she doesnt compromise but is very good mahima replied. One of the major reasons patients do not want to do IVF is their fear of injections. They know that during IVF they need to take injections for many days - and many patients are understandably reluctant to take these shots because they have been told that these injections are painful !

While it' s no fun to take injections , the good news is that the injections used for IVF treatment are not painful !

Lupron and Anatgon ( which are used for downregulation) and given subcutaneously, just like a diabetic takes insulin injections. these are easy to self-administer and are not painful.

The injections which are used for superovulation ( the urinary gonadotropins such as Menogon) used to be given intramuscularly. IM injections are more painful than subcutaneous injections, because a larger volume needs to be deposited in the muscle and because the muscles have more nerve endings than the subcutaneous fat. However, these are water soluble , and the pain is usually easy to handle. Using simple tricks ( such as ice-cubes to numb the area or EMLA patches ) can help in managing the pain.
I have heard a lot about Bournhall clinic and how they have started their set up in Kochi and Gurgaon and are pioneers in IVF treatment.They are known to have very good sucess rates as well

Thanks Mahima

I was having these doubts as Dr. Ameet Patki in Mumbai is suggesting IVF for me after a unexplained failed IUI.
Glad to know that these injections are not dreadful.

IVF via Donor Sperm

Hence we thought to go for donor sperm. But there is still risk... - SS [View Message]
