Apple, I'm not too sure too. Usually our scan is at gynae or kk whereby they put a stick like device into your vagina.

Since u mentioned cd14 scan, I believe will be transvagina scan to see the follicles. Normal scan on stomach won't be able to see I think

Apple, I suggest u can just go bk to kk for the scan and get the report...after which, u can then decide if u wanna continue seeing the doc who put u on clomid. Save the trouble of asking around and I suppose it might be cheaper too.

Anyway, I'm seeing a fertility doc at kk and was put on clomid too. I conceived after my first clomid cycle but bb heart beat stopped at wk 8. But will continue to see my fertility doc lah...since he knows my condition best

Certainly can visit gynae alone. I did that. My hubby has never gone with me. I only sent my hubby's army for SA and doc went through his report with me.

I saw Dr Chew at Glen E.

He is a very nice and fatherly person. I suggest you call and ask the nurse you wanna speak with him first. Talk to him on your concerns. If you feel comfortable, you can fix the appointment from there.

Mummgirl you're welcome.

I do think gynae and fertility specialist are different. Like I've seen a gynae at kkh during my bfp days. He will ensure my pregnancy is healthy but I won't see him if I wanna conceive. If I have issue conceiving, then best to see a fertility doc whom has different set of expertise.

Have heard of that doc too. At this point, I'm just trusting my sinseh to help me (of course I have to help myself to be less stressful on this ttc journey). I told him I've seen Dr Chew for the treatment during my first visit. He told me for my case no point seeing a fertility doc because there's no problem with my body. It's what's in my head, aka stress. By forcing my body with medical intervention, won't help me. That's what he says la.

Anyway I do see drastic improvement with this sinseh especially his acupuncture. Thumbs up.
So for now, I'm keeping my faith just on him first.

Mummygirl perhaps different ladies have different treatment but mine was quite intensive with dr Chew. I saw him twice weekly at some weeks. He wanted to do close monitoring on me. I do think it will be a challenge to take leave if that's your concern. For me my job doesn't allow me to be fixed at the desk so I could still get on with that.

hi mxlo, you got to drink more water. no tea or green tea for those trying to conceive.

right now, I'm on 2ww but I feel that I had bloated stomach. not sure whether is it AF coming soon.
