(Translated by Google) Dear Dr. Huang Jianrong and his medical team: This time, it’s finally my turn to “graduate.” Married for almost four years, I’ve had one unsuccessful attempt at natural conception! In recent years, friends around me have been sharing good news, which has put a lot of pressure on me. I started to suspect that one of my partners might have a problem. To find the cause, I embarked on my journey to the infertility clinic.
At a second hospital, I had my AMH and FSH levels tested. When my AMH was found to be only 0.46, I couldn’t believe I had premature ovarian failure. The doctor at the time bluntly stated that if I wanted to conceive naturally, I’d have to win the lottery.
Later, through a friend in the medical field, I was advised to bring my reports to Dr. Huang Jianrong for a consultation before making a decision, since IVF is always out-of-pocket regardless of where you go. Dr. Huang gave me a warm and approachable feeling, unlike the doctors I’d encountered before. Even though he was very busy with patients, he still took the time to listen quietly to me, patiently analyzing my questions and the numerical values. It made me feel valued!
Not wanting to waste any more time and money, I decided to go straight for IVF, which has a higher success rate. Initially, during the testing cycle, they suggested I take medication and receive 2-3 micro-stimulation injections to observe my ovarian response before deciding whether to retrieve eggs that month. Hearing that it wouldn’t require many injections and that the process could be slower, I immediately decided this was the place for me.
The second treatment was more conventional, using a mild stimulation method. This meant starting on the second day of my menstrual cycle with one injection daily. Egg retrieval was scheduled around the twelfth day (this varies from person to person). For patients like me with premature ovarian failure (low AMH), even with more medication, the effect might be limited, so Dr. Huang suggested we take it easy.
I completely trusted my doctor and his expertise. Even with questions, the nursing team always helped me answer them first.
I was quite nervous during the first implantation, but I believed everything would work out for the best.
Luckily, this time the result was 1 in 1 implanted! It was the first time I saw two lines, the first time I saw tiny dots flashing. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Huang and his team for making this journey so much more meaningful. Facing various anxieties always gives me the best comfort.
I hope my story can give you, who are on this path, some courage.
As long as there’s still a chance, don’t give up; perhaps good news will come. May everyone receive good fortune in pregnancy.
DEAR 黃建榮院長及醫護團隊:
這次終於輪到我畢業了。結婚將近四年，自然受孕一次也「沒有成功!!」近幾年，身邊的朋友陸續傳來好消息，其實心理壓力有點大。才開始懷疑是不是夫妻雙方有一方是有問題的。為了尋找原因，於是踏上不孕科門診之路。
在第二間外院，加檢了AMH、FSH。驗出我的AMH只有0.46時，簡直不敢相信自己就是卵巢早衰的患者。當時的醫生直接宣判，想要自然受孕，除非我中樂透。
後來，經由醫療領域的朋友推薦，建議我帶著報告來找「黃建榮」先諮詢後再決定，畢竟IVF不管在哪都是自費的。黃院長給我的感覺很溫暖&親切，不同於過往的醫生給我的感受。他明明病人很多，但還是花了一些時間靜靜的聽我說話，把我的疑問及數值慢慢分析給我聽。讓我覺得有被重視的感覺！
由於不想再浪費時間及額外的金錢，不如就直上機率比較高的試管。一開始是測試週期，建議我先吃藥+微打2-3針的方式先看卵巢反應如何，再決定當月要不要取卵。聽到不用打很多針而且可以放慢腳步，我立馬決定就是這裡了。
第二次療程，比較循規蹈矩一些，以微刺激的方式進行。也就是月經週期第二天開始天天打一針即可。大約打至第十二天後安排取卵手術(因人而異)。像我這種早衰(AMH低)的患者即便是打再多藥物可能效果還是有限，黃醫生說不如我們輕鬆一點。
我是百分之百的相信我的醫生，相信他的專業，即便有問題護士團隊也會先幫我解答。
第一次植入時相當緊張，但我相信一切都會是最好的安排。
很幸運的，這次結果是植一中一!!第一次看到兩條線，第一次看到小點在閃爍。心中滿滿的感謝黃醫師及團隊，讓我在這一路上不孤單。面對各種不安情緒總是給我最好的安慰。
希望透過我的故事，能讓在這條路上的你們一些勇氣，
只要還有機會就不要放棄，或許好孕就稍稍的來了。願大家都能承接好孕
