Q After three failed IVF cycles, my body feels completely broken. Is it worth recovering my body before trying again?
A Yes, a recovery period between procedures is meaningful. Restoring a body worn out by repeated ovarian stimulation and stabilizing your disrupted condition helps you enter the next procedure in better shape.
Detailed Answer
Repeated IVF procedures greatly deplete the body's vitality during ovarian stimulation and egg retrieval. When sleep, digestion, and lower-abdominal condition all worsen together, this can affect the implantation environment, so in many cases it is more helpful to take a few months of recovery rather than immediately trying again. Entering the next procedure in good condition after recovery is a realistic strategy.
Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective
The 36-year-old patient mentioned earlier, who had failed IVF three times, also took four months before her next procedure to recover her exhausted body and cultivate the uterine soil with Korean medicine treatment. At Dongjedang, we focus on replenishing depleted qi and blood and relieving lower-abdominal coldness in this way, rebuilding the body's foundation for the next attempt.
