Dato Dr. Prashant Nadkarni

My wife was under Dato' Prashant and not Halena, so I can only comment on KL Fertility experience. OK, blood test, they will draw some blood from the wife and test... usually for hormones to ensure the hormones are level. Its located IIANM, level 3 same building. Will have do this quite often and my wife hated it as rrr.had a bad exriance in drwing blood. Once the blood test is OK, the course commence where you have to take injections for 10 days, same time everyday. I remember during early mornings I had to jab my wife..lol...blur blur..wife face so scared..kekeke...but after a few times you will be fine. There are 2 types of injection..once is synthetic, comes in like a diabetic pen style injector, the other more old school ..have to mix 2 vials and then inject using a small syringe, everyday also. The first one is much easier to work with. After taking injections..just before the eggs extraction, got 2 extra injections that have to take. Those are rather big syringes..smile.gif. But luckily only 2. The egg extraction is done in same building and its actually quite quick. Will go under anesthetic..and the whole extraction process took like 1 hour. Wife was blur after coming out..so need some time to rest after that. Overall its a half day process. Normally according to Prashant, he takes about 8-10 really good sized eggs. Once extracted and inseminated, you will have 2 choices..either..to implant on 3rd day or wait till next month for the body to heal up. Best is to consult Dr Halena which is best. We tried both and I wont tell you which work. tongue.gif. Additional eggs/embryos can be frozen (additional charges apply). Best is to freeze the better ones, i.e day 5 blastocyst. After implant, I remember wife had to take some pills ...and insert also. About 10 days later....you will have to go do a urine test. If positive, you do blood test to confirm. If negative......just remember its not the end of the world. Miracles happens in many ways. Good luck and I am sure you are probably in the best hands in this field. Which reminds me I have to send a thank you not to KL Fertility as my boy is due next 3 weeks.

Dr Prashant was my light at the end of the tunnel of infertility ...

After 10 years, finally my life is complete with a pair of twins

We arrived at 10 at the clinic but only got to see the Dr at 1030am. I have been warned about the wait through reading a few blogs written by other patients of Dr Prashant. Dr Prashant was very direct with us. He started asking standard questions, started looking at the sperm test result and straight away said...'You need to do IVF'. I was disappointed because I was hoping to be able to do IUI since I am scared of needles but at the same time, I was glad to get a straight forward answer. To me, it is better to spend all that money on the best option rather than hunting on simpler option yet not going anywhere. Hubby was calm too even though I know he was still upset with the fact that I forced him to do the count earlier than he wanted to. The main point is, sperm count test does not change in 1 month or a week. The count, if changes, will only happen in 3 months. We spent maybe 10mins with Dr Prashant. All I can say for now, he is very direct and did not waste anyone's time.I have not done any procedure with him, so I could not write a review on his work. We shall find out when I come back for my assessment in my next cycle! We then went to see Nurse H who explains about IVF. I was happy and full with hope when she said with IVF, for people at my age, we have 65% success rate. That is good enough for me. Then suddenly Dr Prashant walked in and we asked him about IUI. He said with IUI, with the sperm count that we have, it is only 1% chance that we will be able to conceive. Of course, IVF is expensive. After further discussion, considering our age, the cost for our IVF treatment is going to be RM15,500. The normal package is RM17,500 but since they categorised us as a young couple, we were given RM2k discount. I will have to come back for an assessment on day 2 and day 10 of my cycle to see if I am a suitable candidate for IVF. Between now and then, hubby and I will discuss when to start our IVF journey. Cost for today - RM100 for semen analysis and RM100 for consultation. To me, this was way cheaper
