Also known as Oocyte Pick Up
Things to prepare
1) IVF documents (you would have been given some documents. Bring it along). Oh, please read it and be aware of what to expect
2) Own medication (I brought along Panadol as I have drug allergy. It would act as my pain killer)
3) Sanitary pad or panty liner (I was good with just a panty liner)
4) Heat pad (to help release cramps)
5) Sperms! If you are producing at home)
Note: This applies only to KKIVF patients
Oh, I did a list of items to watch out for after the egg retrieval.
My list:
To contact clinic if:
1) Fever greater than 39 degrees for more than 2 hours
2) Excessive vaginal bleeding
3) Unusual and increasing pelvic area discomfort
4) Difficulty with urination or change in bowel activity
5) Nausea, vomitting or diahorrea
6) Sharp or shooting pains
7) Pain or burning during urination
8) Abdominal swelling
9) Unusual back pain
