Laura!

Can we try to study about endo and the combination of lupron and letrozole on endometriosis patients? Also, to clarify she uses this protocol for 2-months in preparation for FET?

[Joel Moncada]

I will most definitely continue. Like Sharon, I may not join in for a 3rd time on all lectures but definitely I will attend her next auto-immune lecture . I found the alumni conversations to be extremely informative and a way to organize my own thoughts about my patients. It’s like having grand rounds without being in an academic hospital. I would love to hear more from other colleagues as well.

Feeling better as of yesterday 🤓

Thanks Sneha! Makes sense! Hope your flight was smooth!

Found some thing but still incomplete ///

Restless Fetus (Tai Dong Bu An) – threatened miscarriage, with vaginal bleeding, backache, abdominal pain, and a bearing-down feeling.

Falling Fetus (Dou Tai) – miscarriage within the first three months

Slippery Fetus (Hua Tai) – habitual miscarriage

?? Withering and Parching Fetus???

Tx Principle –> Calm the Fetus by strengthening Chong and Ren, tonify Kidney, Nourish Blood, Raise Qi.

Laura –

For our upcoming study group can we review from your immunology lecture why implantation is considered a down regulated mechanism and why endometriosis is considered a Kidney Yang Deficiency disorder (per Lyttelon)?

Thanks so much!

I think there was a mistake. There was link posted for a 10am class when it should be 1230pm. Correct?

[Joel Moncada]

Laura – just as a point of clarification do you mean Sunday 2/26 or Friday 2/24? – Joel

[Joel Moncada]

Forgive me; technical difficulties. I will ensure to make it to the next call!

[Joel Moncada]

Laura – I shall be sitting as well for the exam and will attend. Study sessions!

Thanks!

Good Morning Fertility Colleagues! My name is Joel de Vera Moncada and I practice in the Bay Area and have focused on Fertility since 2009 when I had the opportunity to work with renowned fertility expert Dr. Lifang Liang. I look forward to making new found professional relationships and, in turn, strengthen my clinical skills. Lastly, I’d like to end my delay of sitting for the ABORM exam and register for 2023.
