I live in Quesnel, near Prince George (a
small town in Northern BC), but I am
originally from Brazil. My husband (who is
a Canadian) had a vasectomy reversal last
March in Vancouver and we would consider
donor as our last option, but for now we
will keep trying to conceive our own baby.
Most doctors say that is still early for
us to expect great results as sperm takes
time to learn how to 'swim' again after a
reversal. Hopefully we won't need the help
of a donor because I am not really ready
for that. Are you married? Where did you
have the IUI done? I know about Genegis
Fertility Clinic. It seems to be a great
clinic.
I had a lot of fertility tests done prior
to the reversal, just to make sure
everything was ok with me and as far as I
know I don't have any problems. I had some
blood tests done in order to check my
levels of: LH, FSH & Progesterone and I
also had another painful test done, called
hysterosalpingogram or simply HSG, to see
if my falopian tubes were open. Have you
heard of it? Did you have it done prior to
your IUI?
Anyway, I wish you luck. I know how
expensive these treatments can be. We
spent almost $6,000 for the vas. reversal,
so I can't imagine spending more for
fertility treatments. Hopefully we will be
blessed with a child some day.
Bye for now and take good care of
yourself.
Marcelle
