    Method of retrieving the sperm sample

    Hey Dr. P!

    My husband and I were wondering if it's necessary for him to give his sample in the office or if there is some way that the sample could be "caught" at the hotel and then transported to the office? I'm really hoping the hotel is an option!


    Cycle #1: HRC- 30 retrieved, 18 fertilized, 8 biopsied. 4 normals, no girls.
    Cycle #2: HRC- 17 retrieved, 14 mature & fertilized. 9 biopsied. 4 normals, 2 girls!
    1xx HEB aa transferred: BFN
    FET #1: 1xx- HEB bb transferred. BFP 6dpt! Beta 13dp6dt 1015!

    The posters above are both right. You can collect at the hotel, have the specimen to us within 45 minutes

    The posters above are correct. Collect in the hotel but have the specimen to us in under 1 hour
