As a Woman Fertility Q&A - Genetics, Blocked Tubes, Mature Eggs, and Fertility Supplements
Dr. Crawford answers your voicemail questions.
Questions answered:
- How common is infertility among male carriers of the cystic fibrosis gene? How do I have the conversation with my sons about it?
- I am 32, going through IVF, and just found out I have blocked tubes and a hydrosalpinx. My doctor doesn’t recommend surgery and wants to aspirate the fluid before an embryo transfer. Is this the appropriate protocol?
- I froze my eggs and am confused by the results. Only 11 of my 17 eggs were frozen due to maturity.
- What are your thoughts on continuing fertility supplements once you get pregnant?
