Why am I crying watching you speak with such compassion and love 🥺💙 I'm having my egg retrieval in the next couple weeks. I needed this reminder of how far we've come

[emily-et]

This has put me at ease. I have never had to undergo a surgical procedure, so I was very nervous about the anesthesia that I will have to deal with next week. Thank you for presenting this information in such a comforting way. Your patients are very lucky to have you.

[joselinaguayojones]

Although my care team has been great, I wish I could have you as my doctor. In the meantime I will continue educating myself with your videos. You are an angel, so compassionate and calming.
Thank you so much ❤

I love your videos and the way you present the information. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with all patient outhere dealing with infertility

[AmoreenaPaulsen-glnc]

This brought me to tears, my retrieval should be in a few days. You have such great information, thank you for sharing your knowledge! I was wondering, I’ve heard that if you feel up to it you should have intercourse after the retrieval. It’s possible there are eggs left behind and with all the hormones you “could “ get pregnant that way? Have you heard this/ recommend?

Then Iam waiting for my results for after 3 days what you think and hope I will get at least good amount will reach to blastocyst stage … Iam praying for that….. thanks for your videos ❤

[mohlini]

Hi Dr Lora, would you recommend any fertility clinic in UK? Thanks

[Yellowasky]

They don’t do egg retrieval under general anesthesia here in Norway. I am so scared.

[teahorvat]

Thank you so much, you calmed me so much ❤️

[andreaprockup]

Hi, what type of precautions and someone with endometriosis should have?

[barbarabourne]

I did a egg retrieval but my stomach keep fulling up with liquid and getting problems to breath what can I do ?

[manoelal.]

Dr, you talked about an increase in the progesterone. I'm afraid coz I have PMDD and very sensitive to progesterone in general. Is it going to have an increase proportionate to the number of eggs?

[hxjekgkAneta]

Is giving up caffeine before egg retrieval let's say one month before beneficial or is it irrelevant?
