BATTLING INFERTILITY

*Pic from google


Hi!

It is just something  that I want to share for a long time..

For those who know, Ezmir and I are married for  almost 3 years (our anniversary is in 1 week time!!yahoo!!) and the honeymoon period or child-less mood is almost over..ehehe Having kid is now pretty relevant as we both are getting older. As we plan on economics stability and pretty much everything in welcoming the baby to the world, there is an issue which we have to overcome with, earlier- INFERTILITY

We have done with numerous hospital check ups, blood checks  and medical procedures  about a year ago.  

And now I am ready to share it with everybody.

For your information I did all my check ups, blood work and everything in Putrajaya  Specialist Hospital. They have all the capacities to do the procedure for you and the good thing is that - It's FREE!!! -Well, Ezmir thought differently since he claimed that he paid the hospital every month via govt tax! (he is one of the guy who upset with the 2012  budget  proposed by the government =) hahaha)

Anyway you can think what ever you want but as for me, it will be very ease in my pocket since I have to pay only RM5 for the registration purposes.

The first and foremost I did my blood work session one month after the thorough sex interview by the doctor. (huishhh! I hate that!) It's better not to discuss every single detail or I might ended up publisized my bedroom story!

Blood Check on Day 2 of your menstrual cycle

FSH & LH check
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is a hormone found in humans and other animals. FSH regulates the development, growth, pubertal maturation, and reproductive processes of the body. FSH and Luteinizing hormone (LH) act synergistically in reproduction. Read More

MGTT check
A glucose tolerance test is a medical test in which glucose is given and blood samples taken afterward to determine how quickly it is cleared from the blood. The test is usually used to test for diabetes, insulin resistance, and sometimes reactive hypoglycemia and acromegaly, or rarer disorders of carbohydrate metabolism.



Blood Check on Day 21 of your menstrual cycle

Progesterone Level Check

Medical Term: A progesterone test measures the amount of the hormone progesterone in a blood sample. Progesterone is a female hormone produced by the ovaries during release of a mature egg from an ovary (ovulation). Progesterone helps prepare the lining of the uterus (endometrium) to receive the egg if it becomes fertilized by a sperm. If the egg is not fertilized, progesterone levels drop and menstrual bleeding begins.




A few weeks later

HSA Check - all men hate this!! ;)

A semen analysis evaluates certain characteristics of a male's semen and the sperm contained in the semen. It may be done while investigating a couple's infertility. - The good news is everything was fine with 'the man' but the bad news is the infertility problem might come from my system.  


A month after that

HSG procedure

It is a standard procedure to check whether you have any blockage in your fallopian tube which colored dye is injected into the uterus and this dye then travels up through the fallopian tubes and out into the abdominal cavity.

I did some research on this earlier and most of them were terrified with the procedure. I thought it was a simple procedure and not really painful! hahaha I was wrong.. the procedure was taken only for like half and hour but it was so painful that I almost fainted in the hospital. And was given a bed rest for like an hour. Well I guess different people will have different experience.

Everything turned out to be fine except for my-not-so-stable-hormones and my minor PCOS syndrome. The doctor has prescribed me with some pills(merformin and clomid  to work on their magic) The pills supposed to boost up my ovulation process and prepare the uterus for the incoming fertilized eggs.

Well it did'nt work this time! Stay tune for more updates on my next procedure..



Cheers!

ABANDONING MY VERY PRECIOUS DIARY

Hi

I have been extremely busy for this past months. Remember how I spent so much time helping my sister's on her wedding stuff? Well, it turned out to be my new interest now- weddings!! I just can't stop doing it. If some of you thinking that I am a wedding planner the answer is NO! Hell No! I have enough stress to cope nowadays. I am just a plain Candy Buffet specialist and my job is turning the bride/groom dream candy bar or desert bar into reality! It seems very easy at first but now it is taking my whole life, my precious weekends, and not to forget, ezmir's weekends too! 

So as of now, I will just have to accept that this is now my new life! and I am still trying very hard to cope with this new business. Well, I am telling you everything (with the business) IT HAPPENED so fast!! At first I was just trying to realize my sister's candy bar and little that I know Candy Buffet in Malaysia has gained so many attention nowadays. And suddenly many of my sister's friends requesting for my help.=)

I got my little business featured (4 pages!!!) in Malaysia's number one wedding magazine in just 2 months operating period and my email and facebook account has been overflowing of people requested their personalized candy buffet since then..fuhhh!! what a mess!!hahaha
Maybe it is just my plain luck right?


My very first touch
Cheers!
