gals,
my gynae is Dr CT Yeong. Previously I was seeing him in kkivf. He is one of the consultant there who deal with infertility etc. Currently he had entered private practice.. his clinic is at tanglin shopping centre.
I was seeing him for my PCOS condition which cause me not to ovulate and had no menses for years (unless induced by medication). My hubby had his sperm count/quality problem too. Anyway we managed to conceive our son with SO-IUI done last year.

carrie,
I am not that sure abt his current charges cos I did my SO-IUI in kkh and now he is in private practice. So may not be able to answer accurately.
yup I succeed with SO-IUI in my first attempt. Previously I was doing numerous rounds of clomid(150mg)+metformin(1500mg) with no success.

SO-IUI cost me less than $1.5k in kkivf. I forgot the exact amt liao though. At the time I did my SO-IUI, the govt had not annouced that ART is medisave claimable. So I din claim. Not sure whether can or not .... I know can claim for IVF... why dun u check with the gynae u are seeing, or call kkivf centre... they will be able to advise u better

Hi chen sing, SGH has an urology centre.. you might wanna try it out. Not sure of the contact details but I'm sure you can easily find it from the website. Hope this helps. Any more funky preggy pix? 
My hubby was diagnosed as having abnormal sperm but after giving up caffeine, we conceived after I did one cycle of Clomid.

Don't anyhow go for operation as some doctors really just want the $$. I've heard Dr Foong is really good.. should stick with him. Take care.. feel free to PM me if you need to 'talk'.. I know how it sucks to be TTC and no result.. we tried for 1.5 years!
Hi chen sing,
I know how you feel.. we had both female AND male factor infertility.. talk about double whammy. We knew for sure, waaay back that I had PCOS.. but we didn't expect my hubby to have problems either. In fact, my PIL were asking and asking and my hubby didn't want to tell them that I had problems.. in fact he wanted to tell them that it was his problem. End up it was true!! So are you going to another urologist? Must take it easy and just shrug off all those nosey questions about TTC lor.

Hi,
I just finished an unsuccessful IVF cycle at NUH with Dr. PC Wong. This was my first. both me and my husband are devastated and would like to know any info that might be useful to us. Is Dr. Wong good? I feel that he is too busy to care about individual patients. Please help.

Hi momo,
I'm so sorry about your failed ivf. Sometimes it take more than 1 fresh cycle to succeed. Do you have any frozen embroyoes?
I also just finished 1st ivf attempt. It was a success on paper because i do get pregnant but it was an ectopic pregnancy. Ended up i had to go for laparoscopy. I fully understand how you feel, the despair and the devastating feeling is just too familiar. The healthcare here is lacking in giving proper and necessary emotional support to all patients, so i do feel your pain as well. Plenty of HUGs, ok! Don't give up, there's plenty of hopes.

Hi,
Can anyone advise if abnormal sperm can fertilize an egg successful? My hubby's normal sperm qualilty is only 9%. We wouldn't mind trying for a longer period. But have to ensure that the "bad" sperm would not fertilize the egg.
We've read several journals in the web which says NO. But our doc, Prof Chris Chen from gleneagles says YES.
We are so confused cos i've just m/c, wouldn't want tat to happen again
Thanks lots!

Hi toughcookie,
Very unlikely that sperm with morphology defect able to fertilize an egg. They won't be able to swim all the way up to your fallopian tube and lack the ability to break thru the egg shell. Hope that helps.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice. We tried for three months and I got pregnant naturally. Unfortunately, the heartbeat of the foetus stop on the 12th week. We went to consult doctor for advice. I was diagnosed with endometriosis and went for the surgery recommended by the doctor. On the other hand, my husband did the color dopple test and minimum varicoele was found. Our doctor recommended surgery for him as he say even bad sperm would be able to fertilise the egg which may cause miscarriage. However my husband would like to seek for second opinion. Currently, both of us are taking TCM to nourish our bodies in order to minimise the chances of miscarriage again.

Hi! I am a new member. Currently, I am seeing Dr Paul Tseng from TLC @ TMC for fertility treatment. He is a good listener and u can ask him a lot of questions and he will answer u...
After one year of trying, I was unable to conceive, I approached him for advice and he immediately ask me to try IUI by natural cycle.
Unlike the gynae in KKH, she told me to keep on trying on my own...with clomid which I should not take as I dun have PCOS..as the clomid can cause me to ovulate the bad egg which by mother nature, I will ovulate good egg on my own...hence I have conceive on my 2nd cycle of Clomid but end up with a blighted ovum miscarriage which the doctor
suspect it is either cause by bad egg or bad sperm...

Hi, sorry to read what had happened to you. I have bad experience with KK too.Currently looking for gynae who is good in treating fertility. Dr Sheilah Loh in KK suggested to my husband and I to do ICIS. I am thinking of looking for another specialist in this area than to stick with KK.
Hi all,
I visited DR LC Foong at Gleneagles. He is very caring, professional and encouraging. I was previously with another gynae in Gleneagles (Dr Fong) which I find that he is not that professional. Have been trying for a year and a half and then we finally found Dr Foong via one of the thread here. I got a friend who recommended me a chinese doc and we visited both of them. Dr Foong actually encourage us to try the TCM also. And last mth, went for IUI for the 1st time and was tested positive just last sunday.
So would like to tell u gals, dun give up and babydust to all of you ...
If anyone need the chinese doc who is very good at fertility issue, please let me know ... i will send the contact to u all ..

i actually went to see her.. coz been trying with my gynae for almost 5-6M still no result so i thought seeing her might help. I see both dr xia rong & my gynae at the same time. I did SO-IUI wth my gynae. the 1st time not successful. 2nd time is when i go to c dr xia rong..took her medicine.. & i conceived the 2nd time when i did my SO-IUI.

hello all - men & women,
i've started a support group for couples facing fertility difficulties and have gotten a few medical professionals to support my thread, ie, when any of you post medical questions, they can answer. after 5 yrs of suffering, mostly in silence, i think a support group structured to help us cope with the realities, would be good for all.... well, coping with the technical bits are impt, ie, who to see, how much to pay, etc, but we have to look after our emotions as well since it does affect our overall wellbeing....
well, the thread is: http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/5/505416.html?1157309502
hope to see some postings soon!
