Supposed to start my stim meds for egg retrieval this week but have a nasty cold. I don’t want to lose my spot - should I just suck it up or will this potentially not lead to good results?

I think you should still start. I don’t think the cold will affect your stim medication.

You could also ask your nurse, I was on antibiotics for an ear infection and let her know right away and she said it wouldn’t affect anything so I proceeded. Transfer in 2 weeks!

I would definitely talk with your nurse, they will know if the meds you are taking interfere with each other. My first week of stims wasn’t too bad hopefully you can get rid of this cold soon!

So, recently got put on a PIP after six months at my new job., two days after I told my boss and HR I recently learned I have a cognitive disability caused by an illness. The PIP was mostly because I forgot some deadlines, but also they said I need to be more professional in emails (even though others use zero punctuation and a lot of emojis. To clients.) and simultaneously ask more questions and ask fewer questions. Should I just assume this is unattainable and look for a new job again?

Trying to have faith but my recent cycle netted 16 eggs, 8 fertilized and only 2 made it to day 5 for testing. There were 3 others that just didn’t mature. This is my third cycle and I’ve been pretty positive up until today. It’s especially hard to get this news in the middle of a work day. Just tired, still bloated and not feeling all that hopeful as we enter this LONG wait until we get the results next week. I hate feeling like this knowing my chances are getting slimmer by the day.

Husband and I have been TTC for almost a year. His semen analysis came back all normal with the exception of morphology at 1% (Kruger Strict criteria). Anyone have insights into morphology and it’s impacts on fertility? From what I’ve read and after talking to our fertility specialist morphology seems subjective.
