Scottsdale, Arizona - PCOS/Blood Disoder I am new here but I wanted to recommend my doctor. I went to the "best infertility clinic in Arizona" and was very unhappy there. They gave me a similar protocol as anyone else for IVF and I hyperstimulated (very painful but didn't need hospital time). I went to Dr. Couvaras at IVF Phoenix at a friend's referral and got pregnant the first time with an IUI! He had me on a variety of drugs, mostly natural and hormones needed for medicated IUI. He also had me on Heparin. Evidently, those of us with PCOS also tend to have "gummy blood", meaning it doesn't flow freely. I was on a low carb diet (under 120) and Metformin as well. Although Dr. Couvaras is somewhat experimental and thinks "outside the box", I think that is what we need because of the inability to figure PCOS out. Loved him and I would travel across country to see him if I needed to! |
