Getting Tired of 샌즈카지노? 10 Sources of Inspiration That'll Rekindle Your Love

[Renwick Matsuda]

Before in vitro fertilization was made available to the public, many couples suffering from fertility problems had no chance of bearing their own children. However, even assisted reproductive technology has its limitations - all the medical advances in the world cannot increase your IVF chances of success if your egg is unfit for fertilization or if you have an insufficient number of eggs to begin with. In the instance where your eggs are incapable of becoming embryos, IVF egg donation can help you finally achieve your dream of motherhood. Technically, anyone can choose to use donor eggs, but women who have the following conditions are more likely to achieve pregnancy success from this approach.

Premature ovarian failure and IVF Chance of Success

Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a condition where the ovaries fail to produce eggs many years before menopause sets in. Every woman is born with a limited number of eggs - just enough so that you can ovulate once every month from adolescence until you reach your fifties. By this time, you would have already used your supply of eggs. This is when menopause occurs. However, women who have POF have an insufficient number of eggs and lose their ovarian functions at a young age. POF typically happens to women younger than 40 and can even happen as early as the teenage years. There are many possible causes of POF and treatments to correct any related hormonal imbalance, but there is no way to restore the natural fertility of a woman with POF. Fortunately, women with POF still have normally functioning uteruses, and they can sustain a healthy pregnancy if they take hormone replacement therapy and use donor eggs with IVF.

High FSH levels

During your initial fertility workup, you have probably heard of or experienced the 3-day FSH test. FSH stands for "follicle stimulating hormone", a hormone released by the pituitary gland to start the maturation of a follicle, which houses an egg. The 3-day FSH test is a blood test that indicates how many eggs you have left. High levels of FSH (greater than 10 mIU/ml) mean that the pituitary gland is working twice as hard to stimulate the ovaries and help them produce an egg out of the dwindling supply. When the ovaries run out of follicles, FSH levels reach their peak and you stop having your period. Women in menopause will have constantly elevated FSH levels (40 mIU/ml).

FSH levels are measured on the third day of the menstrual cycle because this provides the best baseline indicator. FSH levels actually vary from cycle to cycle; it's not uncommon to have an FSH score of 14 in one cycle and an 8 in another cycle. However, the highest FSH level obtained is still the best indicator of how likely a woman is to get pregnant through IVF.

If you are younger than 35 with high FSH levels, you still have a good chance of getting pregnant even if your ovarian reserves are low. At this age, you'll still have high quality eggs, which will make up for the quantity problem. But if you are older than 35 with elevated FSH levels, you might need the help of an egg donor to achieve pregnancy success with IVF.

No response to ovarian stimulation

The number of retrieved eggs and viable embryos correlates to your chance of pregnancy success. This is why IVF cycles make use of fertility drugs to stimulate the growth of multiple follicles. A good response to ovarian stimulation would mean the maturation of 15-30 follicles, but women with extremely poor or no response would only have 7 or less mature follicles. The cycle is usually cancelled at this point; however, you can continue and choose to attempt pregnancy if you use donated eggs.

The electric egg poacher and other forms of egg cookers have been around for decades. There is the belief in some circles that these are unnecessary devices. After all a true poached egg is submerged in liquid and is traditionally cooked in a saucepan in simmering water. And hard and soft boiled eggs may be cooked in a sauce pan just as easily.

But there are features in most electric egg poachers and egg cookers that add much in the way of convenience and consistency. Most cookers have features that take a of the guess work out of preparing eggs to the desired degree of firmness. They typically come with a clear measuring class that indicates the correct amount of water to add to the cooker, given the number of eggs and the desired result (hard or soft-boiled). Other cookers come with automatic timers and alarms that also aid in obtaining consistent results.

Another advancement in the egg poacher community is the appearance of the toaster egg poacher. These units are actually a toaster, egg cooker and poacher all in one appliance. Inspired by the fast-food breakfast sandwich, these handy appliances will both poach an egg and toast bread or English muffin at the same time. Some also have a warming tray for cooked meat, thus all the components of a breakfast sandwich can be prepared in just a few minutes. Starting at under $30, these new-generation egg cookers are a bargain, given their versatility.

Generally egg poachers and cookers start at about $30, and there are a wide selection in this price range. Of course stainless steel egg poachers are pricier and can priced as high as $90. Whatever your budget, an egg cooker should be considered an 메리트카지노 essential small kitchen appliance.
