What Percentage of Residents in Surveyed Nations Look Online for Health Information? - Data Points - iHealthBeat: " Roughly 96% of residents of Russia search online sometimes or often for information on their health, medicines or medical conditions, according to a London School of Economics survey commissioned by United Kingdom health care firm Bupa.

According to the survey, 92% of China residents use the Internet to find health-related information, followed by India at 90%. The survey found that about 80% of U.S. residents look online for health-related information and that French residents are least likely to do so.

According to the survey, about 81% of individuals in the 12 countries surveyed who have access to the Internet have used it to look for health care-related information."

Health is the second most commonly searched topic on the net. ( The first is porn !)

    Hi Dr, i have two 5 cells embryo freeze in hospital. 1 day before FET, it has been taken out from incubator. 1 still remain 5 cells, the other one became 3 cells only. Is this means the embryo is dead?

    1. This means your embryos have arrested, sorry. There is no point in transferring them.
      Do you have photos of your embryos?

    1. No - a negative HCG means you are not pregnant

      Your period will start soon

      Can you send me more details about your IVF cycle ?
      DO YOU HAVE PHOTOS OF YOUR EMBRYOS ?

      You can see what embryos should look like at http://www.drmalpani.com/knowledge-center/ivf/embryos

      What were the meds which were used for
      superovulation ? What was the dose used ? How many follicles did you grow ? How many eggs were collected ? What was the E2 ( estradiol) level in the blood at the time of the HCG trigger ? What was the endometrial thickness ?
      How many embryos were transferred ?
      What was the embryo quality ?
      Can you please send me the printed treatment summary from your IVF clinic ?
