Any Recommendations For Fertility Specialists In The Philadelphia Area?

A myPCOSteam Member asked a question 💭
Philadelphia, PA

My partner and I are currently TTC and started our first round of fertility treatment, but unfortunately, it was unsuccessful. I know patience is key, but going through something like this isn't easy. I'm looking for a provider and team who are compassionate, sensitive, and patient-centered.

@A myPCOSteam Member awww, I'm hoping treatment is going well for you! Keep your head up! I am guessing fertility tx takes patience, although it can be frustrating at times. You are not alone! I am praying for you as you go through this journey and get your rainbow baby. It’ll all be worth it! 🙏🏾❤️

Not at all! And I was taking the ovulation induction medication, letrozole for 5 days w/ monitoring starting 3 days after taking the last pill, and timed intercourse was recommended once my ovary produced at least two matured follicles.

Which treatment did you go through if you don’t mind me asking?

Thank you! I am balancing eating healthy, taking supplements, and exercising. I have a reproductive endo. but not too happy with the team there. I am hoping to find a different provider soon.

My husband and I are taking the same fertility routine. We started back in May after losing our little girl at 20 weeks in January. It's been a true journey that's for sure. FS had me on treatments for 2 months and then stopped when ovaries had a few cyst that did not resolve them selves. I had to have laparoscopic surgery recently. The doctor removed the problem cyst and biopsied the tissues. Test came back non cancerous so he has approved to start ovulation inductions again. Since I was still healing we did not do it this cycle, but next cycle is a go. I wish you the best of luck and hope that we both have our little miracles soon.
