ok, listen to rainbow's advice.
but hor, dr never give much advice one lah... he made me very stressed,.. everytime go for scan, he told me negative news... " i don't like your fibroid", " the follicles are not enough", "the follicles are so small" and so on..... he made me feel like he's more keeen to cancel the cycle. keep telling me, "we'd see how at next scan","the next scan very crucial" and so on.. when i asked him if i need to take anything special, like muti vits or food, he said no need.... he did't even mention water intake need to be more.
but since i started the stim, i very thirsty lor.... keep drinking and going to toilet, then i read that follicles ned water to grow, the water is going to the follicles..... i think this at least was an impt info.... don't know why he didn't mention
hehe,.. i always complaining about dr hor :-) i'm difficult to please... very stingy with compliments. haha |

msh, I sometimes felt that dr never gives extra information like some other docs. At time, when he is busy, he never gives enough time for us 
if not that I have gone so far might have considered going KKH (cheaper at least). |

msh - u r so funny...then maybe ask the dr when he can give you more +ve feedback.
I learn something...didn't know water will help to grow follicles...will take note and apply next time...
didi - u really think kk is much cheaper...i thought the price is not any different unless u r a referral case...ie must get referral letter from polyclinic first. So when will u be flying off to japan? |

i met a friend at dr nair's clinic that day... he was with kk, and their cycle was cancelled due to follicles not sufficiently stimulated. he told me that medicine in kk is cheaper.... i think overall at least 2-3k difference.
yesterday nite i went for trigger shot. tomorrow is my ER. trying not to think too much now... not been having much appetite last few days and nauseus... tummy very tight and uncomfortable... can't wait to enjoy 3 days where tummy will be empty of the follicles.... hahaha... not been sleeping well also, cos of the tummy :-( |

found a clinic near my place that closes at 10. my injection was at 9.30... so just nice. my ER is at 9.30 tomorrow. the follicles are ok... sizes are ok.... can't help worrying about quality but i try not to. it won't help anything to worry now anyway.
i'm not sure if my friend is still with dr nair now... he said they came to take a second opinion,... i have not contacted him since i met him that day. maybe later. |

hi, thanks for your concerns, didi and rainbow
19 eggs were retrieved, out of which 14 are mature. 10 got fertilised. i was having so much problem yesterday cos my stomach ws feeling very tender and i couldn't sleep on my side,couldn't turn at all. had to sleep on my back throughout and my back almost broke from the sleeping. it got so bad that i couldn't sleep in the middle of the nite. finally i slept sitting, with hubby's help..
today it's better... at least i could get out on my own and could sleep on my side... i'm looking forward to better sleep tonight. |

Ok, i will try to cook (maybe hard-boil, don't like soft boil). Btw, during the ER are you totally knock-out ? how long does it takes ?
Rainbow, did you eat any during your previous IVF ? |

rainbow7, think will take during follicle stimulation. if you want to see dr nair, you will have to see him on the 2nd day of your menses ? in order to start the nordette on day 5 ? you can call the nurses and check. when do you intend to do the IVF ? |

didi, could it be late ovulation? if u take bbt as well, u can check if tomorrow's tempperature is higher. i think if he sick then he probably don't have energy, i have found out that the effort makes hb exert alot. not sure if its normal.
rainbow... i am not sure if it's for holiday or one of his seminars.... i'd ask when i see him next week. |

i guess i prob won't be starting in feb...cos if in feb...must start seeing dr now already right?
trying to avoid coffee and cut down on fatty stuff like cakes and pastries which is my favourite...but very difficult leh....how abt yourself?

Hi msh, sorry to hear abt the bad news. Let's all jia you together.
I read in the other thread that u hv v heavy menses. I also got the same experience after my failed IVF. In fact, when dr called me abt the bad news, he told me to wait for the menses to come but warned me that it will be very very heavy. Indeed was true.
So did u ask dr why it failed? And what's his advice for next course of action?
didi - u leaving for taiwan next week? Happy holdiay. I've made an appt to see dr on 1st Feb...when will u be seeing him? |

Rainbow, think I won't be seeing him in Feb although today is my lst day of menses as my hubby thought we might try one more cycle as the last time we didn't even try on my ovulation day, can I check with you as I am using the digital clearblue opk to try, I am supposed to have sex when I see the sigh right ? but I was so excited when I see that after testing for 12 days then my hubby fall sick, so upset
MSH, I was also wondering why your IVF failed ? did Dr Nair tell you the reason ? |

MSH - nice to hear from you.
I didn't go to see dr yesterday...think hvn't saved enuf $$$ yet so better don't see yet.
Didi - how's the MP sinseh's medicine? Bitter? U told me only need to brew 1x a day right? Is it morning or night? And how often must u go back to see him? The medicine u bot is for how many days' supply? I am still taking EYS medicine...finishing soon and not sure if i shd go and see her again...cos each time is $300 for one mth's supply of medicine...so expensive.
now i think i will only go for my 2nd ivf attempt in may cos will be bz with work in mar & apr. |

Rainbow, I am used to taking bitter chinese medicine so to me it is the same - all chinese medicine. I don't have to brew every day just on days specify by him. He gave me medicine to brew 2 days (3 days apart) for myself and 3 packets to brew for my hubby. He didn't say when I should go back and see him though. |

i saw dr nair yesterday too.... although i had 10 eggst o fertilise, only 3 were usable.... the rest were discarded,... so basically there seems to be a problem there, either the eggs or sperm not healthy... one way to determine is to do cross fertilisation, fertilise my eggs with donar sperm or his sperm with donar eggs... but i think we don't want to try that. |

I also do not like to visit pple that has just delivered now...but recently all my good frens jus delivered...so no choice..must go...but i start to feel that once these good frens become mother...i hv less topics to share with them..hence, less communciation also...and i think if i don't call them, they will also not hv time to call me...and my close friends is getting lesser and lesser...sometimes just feel so sad why it happens to me like that...but guess it's all in god's hand and the only way is continue to HOPE & BELIEVE we can be a MUM one day. I told myself i will continue to try...if have have, don't have also can't do much...but if don't have hor...really don't wish to live so long....cos getting more bored. |

Hi gals, I am really upset these few days, and just wanted share what happened. I went to attend a wake for one of my relative who passed away, and needless to say, meet-up with all my cousins, and all of them have children EXCEPT me, do you know how I feel ? so ....so sad and only you gals can understand how I felt. So I told myself that I must be positive ........ |

Thanks rainbow, I am really really afraid at times. As my parents are getting old and I being my dad's favourite gal think he wants to see my child before anything happen to him (Touch wood !) Guess there's nothing we can do....., good thing that now I have two more sisters (as I come from a small family that I have only 1 elder sister). |

don't be sad didi, be positive, we'd have our baby in our arms soon...
I went to a TCM in Bukit Mareh, recommended by my sis, told him i have a fibroid and planning to remove, and he advised me to come back after I remove. he said no point taking the herbs now and consoled me not to worry , that he had helped alot of couples get pregnant last year. so i'd not be going to the mp sinseh for a while... till my surgery over... .it's supposed to be in mid Mar, but my AF still not here.... its already my day 38!!! Rainbow, is this late AF normal? I'm waiting waiting everyday for it to show face but till now no sign at all. |

No lah, me also thought of changing doc, when you see Dr loh, you need to bring any medical reports ? from Dr Nair. I wonder will there be any problems if I change doc instead. Btw, removing of fibroids (isn't that covered by your company's medical benefits ?). How's dr loh, is he as nice as Dr Nair ? |

I wrote a summary myself esp for the ivf treatment. and showed him whatever test results i have like the hysteroscopy. dr nair didn't offer to write report even thou i told him i'm going to see dr loh, so i didn't want to open my mouth to ask. hehehe.... i very proud one.
i think u just need to summarise any tests u and hb did, and show him the results if he asks for it. u can explain your last treatment in a bit more detail.
I don't think there is any problem changing doc. he's nice and best part is he responds to email. and he has nite clinics. i think its normal to change docs.... after all we are customer and sometimes not that the dr is no good, but rather, its the chemistry and assurance we get from the dr. |

huh...both of you are changing docs? so this topic will die off...i think i will continue to see dr nair for one last time, else will also need to switch to kk...but i don't like kk cos understand it will not be so personalised. U will hv different nurses doing the scan etc.
MSH - fibroid removal is not by lapro right? My colleague is also going for a surgery to remove 2 fibroids and the gynae told her it's like a caesarean. |

Hi ladies,
I am a patient of Dr Nair since 2002. Tried timing of ovulation, IUI, HSG, Brain scan due to high prolactin etc....After 2 yrs of trying and 1 miscarriage, finally managed to conceive naturally. Though I did not conceive thru the prior assisted methods, I am forever grateful to Dr Nair for his encouragement and personal touch. Though often he may not be bearer of good news (always telling me about his concern for my introverted womb, unhealthy eggs etc), but isn't this a manisfestation of a careful and responsible Dr who will try at all means to find the root cause for patients? At the last stage of my pregnancy, bb heartbeat indicates some problem and if not for his insistence in admitting me for round the clock monitering, I may not give birth to a chubby and healthy boy (later was found that his umbilical cord was coiled 3 times round his neck). And when I was warded for a week due to bb's jaundice, he still visits me everyday without incurring extra charges! I am really touched by his act of kindness! There are many skillful doctors whose charges are exorbitant but certainly not many who also possess a human touch. |

Hi mykono, I have no doubts that Dr Nair is nice and very personal and alway very encouraging, if I ever change doctor is not for other reasons except for the costs as I have spent close to 20 - 25K on the treatments. |

didi, mine too! In fact, after the miscarriage, I was really devastated and asked Dr Nair to proceed with IVF. However in my case, he refused, saying dat I can still try ways dat r not too invasive. Seen the chinese sinseh for 9 mths before I get preggy. A mth medicine(plus hubby) cost ard $300. Plus need to brew med everyday and take BTT every morning. looking back, watever suffering is worth it. ehmm...dun think is convenient to post the sinseh contact here cos afraid of being accused of free advertisement.But share wif u sttg dat sounds superstitious but seem to work wif me & frens. A very close fren of mine bought me a metal promegranate from fengshui shop which is believed to help in fertility. And I got preggy a month after dat. Hubby bought for a fren whose wife tried IVF but failed. Can u believe it? she got preggy shortly after. A few frens too! I tried buying for my beautician, but seem out of stock now. Maybe u can try to get from any feng shui shop. |

didi,
Actually u can tell Dr nair about your finanical concerns and see wat he can do. Brought my aunt who was not working for consultation, told him about her situation(he ordered for some tests) and to my sweet surprise, he actually waived off the consultation charge. Last time, when I was hospitalised for miscarriage, he even waived off the consultation charge. Cos he really sympathise with me....after going thru all the suffering, i miscarriage the day i confirm my pregnancy at his clinic. Though is just a few hundred dollars, but wat touches me is the kind gestures(I didn't even requested for it....at dat time, pay $ until numb liao). |

mykono, the another reason other than the costs is that I have been seeing him for a while and I don't see any results (my huuby has sort of lose faith in him already ) so maybe change another doc might be better. |

Hi all, I'm seeing Dr Nair too...I was diagnosed with PCOS and my GP recommended me to see Dr Nair when Hubby and I started trying for a baby.
I am glad that after seeing him for a year, taking metformin and taking clomid and getting injections to stimulate follicle growth, I got pregnant and I'm now in my 3rd trimester.
He's a wonderful doctor and a highly experienced one at infertility. His nurses are also very good and friendly. I'd recommend anyone who is having trouble at conceiving to see him!
BUT be very prepared for the long waits...even if you do have an appt...the average waiting time is like 2-3 hours!
However, if you are already pregnant, then I find that its not very good to continue seeing him. He's not the type of gynae that will sit and talk with you abt pregnancy woes or tell you what to expect, and if you're a first time mum like me, his one-word-one-sentence answers will certainly drive you crazy! After waiting hours to see him, all you get is barely 5 mins with him and he will start to stand up and make his exit to see the next patient. And then it makes you wonder why you pay $80 for consultation! He just doesn't have the time..too many patients! For detailed scans and tests which normal gynaes can do, he said he can't do it so he refers his patients to other gynaes to do them.
So I don't think its worth seeing him after getting pregnant..the time and money can be saved seeing other gynaes! |

Hi All, seems like this thread stop for the past 2 months plus..
Is Dr Nair really good in helping the infertility only? Is he good/recommend as a gyne once you are pregnant? Or will he recommend other gyne to us when we are pregnant whereas he focus on the infertility patients?
From the above feedback, it seems that there are not much info shared by him during consultation... |

Hi Createjoy!
I have been with Dr. Suresh Nair. He is very good and a nice guy! Very sweet I should say. I can tell you that if you are talking about fertility at Mt. E he is the Best! I went thru my IVF/ICSI under his care. Thou I have lots of complication going thru my treatment but he is always helping me to make me feel at ease. Thru my experience, it was a success for the 1st try thru IVF/ICSI pregnant with twins but I guess luck was not on my side..I had a miscarriage during my 3rd month. But it doesn't stop there.. we did went thru a 2nd and 3rd try but both was unsuccessful..Thou I am still childless, my hubby and I am not giving up. We are still meeting him for treatment.. Oh Yes! if you are going thru a fertility treatment you must be prepared to pay the cost.. Just a tip. Both you and your hubby must have all patience & dun lose hope in any cause.Must standby each other always. Both must be ready mentally and physically..I wish you All the Best and Success!! |

thanks ramiz, i like him as a patient doc but his cost really scary... and there is one morn i went to his clinic as the 1st patient i sat there waiting to be scan for about 15min and i started looking around... then i saw the rubber that cover the scan tool was with gel.... then when he came it he didnt spot it and before i could bravely tell him he already inserted... so i just pray the last night patient was clean. after that the nurse change the rubber. i believe they forgot to change the night before after the last patient... and i have my reason to believe they are too busy and tired to be alert at all times... cos there is also once when i was the 2nd last patient they gave me a wrong blood test report belonging to someone else and i didnt realise too till the next day i went for the referral doc.. oh mine! luckily that clinic nurse saw it wasnt my report!
well if after another few mths no good news then i might change doc already... cant afford every mth 500-1.3k when i not even doing IUI or IVF... hope his patient can bring me hope! |

The scientists at the University Medical Centre, Rotterdam, and other institutions in the Netherlands say that consuming as little as three-quarters of the recommended daily amount of vitamin E while pregnant can lead to a nine-fold increase the risk of a heart problem at birth 646-653 exam.
The scientific study was case-controlled and examined possible associations between congenital heart defects 650-175 exam and maternal intake of vitamin E and retinol - retinol is the active form of vitamin A that has previously been associated with CHDs.
Vitamin E is found naturally in numerous foods including nuts, avocado and olive oil and is important to human health - vitamin A (retinol) has already been linked to causing harm to the development of the foetus and for this reason, consumption above 700 micrograms per day during pregnancy is advised 650-575 exam no such recommendations currently exist regarding safe vitamin E levels during pregnancy but pregnant women need not be concerned by vitamin E in foods as long as they eat a healthy, balanced diet, but should avoid taking supplements of vitamin E. |
