KKH IVF Clinic

The clinic I'm receiving fertility treatment is KKH and have been with them since 2007 and my Dr is - Dr SF Loh.

I don't think this clinic offers excellent service but I stay with them since I managed to get pregnant thrice under Dr SF Loh, so I'm hoping for a 4th miracle and this time to have a successful pregnancy and delivery of my baby (babies).

I will be on lucrin for almost 21 days, in addition to Puregon for up to16 days. 
Once my lining and folicles size and qty is right, I'll be on this HCG jab to triger ovulation for ER (Egg Retriever) and 2 days later will be ET (Embryo Transfer).
Subject to my progesterone level, I may need more progesterone jabs.

The actual schedule as follows:
Day 1 : start of menses - call KKH IVF
Day 2 - Day 16 : Microgyon (birth control pills) x 16 days
Day 16 - Day 21 : Microgyon 5 days + subcut Lucrin 10 units x 5 days Total Microgyon 21 days
Day 21 - Day 30 : subcut Lucrin 10 Units 9 days Total 14 days Lucrin

Day 31 - Day 37 : subcut Lucrin 10 units x another 7 days
Day 38 - Day 44 : subcut Puregon 200 IU x 7 days + Lucrin 10 units
Day 45 (8th day of puregon)- Day 53 (16th day of puregon): subcut Puregon + Lucrin 10 units (dosage depends on growth of follicles) - 1st scan on 8th day of puregon; 2nd scan betwen 9th -12th days; 3rd scan between 13th - 15th day. When follicles reach 16mm, STOP Lucrin. Total 16 days puregon
Day 54 : IM pregnyl at night , ER 2 days later
Day 56 : Egg Retrieval
Day 57 - Day 58 : wait for fertilisation
