I am wondering, what would be the highest BMI that you would start treatments and investigations on? I currently have PCOS and am struggling to lose weight.

I have been told that I have an Isthmocele following my C-section. I had IVF for my first child. Would you recommend having this repaired prior to having another cycle of IVF?

Can PCOS affect egg quality? Can the protocol affect egg quality? 17 were collected and 10 fertilised. However all eggs were poor quality and slow progressing. Only 1 made it to blasto and had moderate fragmentation. How can I improve egg quality or is it just luck of the draw?

I had an ectopic pregnancy in 2005 in my right tube. The tube was not removed and I had a salpingectomy.

I am now 31 and my partner and I would like to start a family, however I am afraid of a repeat ectopic pregnancy. Is it wise it have a HSG test done prior to trying to conceive? I have read online that it not only confirms if your tubes are healthy but it also removes small blockages.

I know many doctors will tell me to try for 6 -12 months before seeking fertility advice, however I would really like to know if there is anything I can do prior to trying to help increase my chances.

My current BMI is 37. Would I be able to start Clomid with the fertility clinic due to PCOS?

I have recently found out I am pregnant after first round of IVF. While so pleased I am so scared of losing this pregnancy. I am 39, what chance do I have? Also if I'm taking progesterone if I do miscarry will I have any symptoms?

Do you offer NK cells testing and if so what is the cost?

About 10 years ago I had Leukaemia, I had chemotherapy and a full body radiotherapy for bone marrow – all went well, had a few ups and downs but was successfully in remission. Because I had the radiotherapy it affected my eggs which meant three years ago we had to go through an IVF cycle (using donor egg and husband's sperm) which was successful and we were blessed with gorgeous twin boys. Since being in remission from cancer I was taking medication HRT tablets which was making me see a cycle each month. I was continuing taking these tablets until IVF but when my babies were born I stopped taking my HRT tablets and still see a cycle each month, and it's a "real period". So I was wondering, does this mean that my eggs might be like they were before I had radiation? Could this be possible?
