In life, some people get what they want easily and others have to fight their way through. Unfortunately for us, we fall into the latter category when trying to conceive. I believe there are lots of couples like us out there, so I would like to share our experience. Hope you find it useful for your planning stage or just to compare notes.
A little note on Alpha Fertility Centre. Dr Colin Lee is the founder and Managing Director of TMC Life Sciences BHD, who then sold his shares to a Singaporean billionaire, who then opened his own clinic - Alpha Fertility Centre.
Let me give you our background briefly. We have been married for almost 2 years but since both of us are not that young anymore, we decided to speed things up. We tried to conceive normally for 1 year and went on to have an IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) helped by Doctor Robert Alief in Jakarta Women and Children's Clinic. I peed on a stick after the 2-week wait and a faint line appeared. I then took 3 blood tests, first one showed higher than normal HCG level, second showed HCG level creeping higher but not as high as expected, third one showed lower HCG level. IUI failed.
Now we are undergoing IVF process, our second try, at the Alpha Fertility Clinic in Kota Damansara, Malaysia. Why Alpha Fertility Centre?
- Dr Colin Lee is well known for his high success rate (fingers crossed we will add to it)
- Convenience. We can get off from work, hopefully stress free during the process
- The cost is similar to Jakarta; accommodation and flight excluded
