While he [Dr. Michael Henry] wanted to do another round of IVF, when we said we couldnt afford it financially he developed a plan that could allow us to move forward without bankrupting us. He again offered education that the plan wasn't going to have the success rate as IVF, but nonetheless provides hope when we had none...I wish he would have told us that there was a chance that we would not get embryos to freeze and what that percentage was. I knew that there was a chance that the procedure wouldn't produce a in my hands baby, but I was truly crushed that we had no embryos to freeze.

How was your experience with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Dr. Henry is honest. Sometimes brutally, but his delivery is so very kind. At our transfer there was one possible embryo that might have made it to freeze according to the embryologist. While Dr. Henry was checking in post procedure he placed he patted on my leg and said softly that we shouldn't hope too much because that embroyo wasn't going to make it. The embroyo didn't make it, but that honesty is what we needed during this emotional time.
In our follow up appointment after the chemical pregnancy, he listened to us. He actually said, "It's okay to not be okay." I was floored. Never had a doctor acknowledged our emotional heartache. While he wanted to do another round of IVF, when we said we couldnt afford it financially he developed a plan that could allow us to move forward without bankrupting us. He again offered education that the plan wasn't going to have the success rate as IVF, but nonetheless provides hope when we had none.
The only weakness, and I'm not even sure it is a true weakness. I wish he would have told us that there was a chance that we would not get embryos to freeze and what that percentage was. I knew that there was a chance that the procedure wouldn't produce a in my hands baby, but I was truly crushed that we had no embryos to freeze.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
No question is a dumb question. They will answer them all so dont be afraid to ask.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Dr. Henry and his office attended to my every need. Then are quick to answer emails the same day. They are informative and give you honest information but with a tender touch many of us require going through this emotional time.
Describe the protocols Michael Henry used in your cycles at Reproductive Care of Indiana and their degree of success.
Medications used:
Birth Control
Luperon 20 units until I started stimulating medications because my estradiol was slightly elevated, then 10 units until HCG shot was administered.
Follistem 125 units, then 150,then 275 units, then 225 units.
Menopur 150 units, then 225 units, then 150 units
The Follistem and Menopur were moved around because my estradiol was not increasing quickly enough and the drastic increase was because my follicles were not growing very fast. Each medication adjustment was based on blood draw and follicle scans.
Ovidrel trigger was given on cycle day 22. Retrival occurred on cycle day 24.
Endometrin was taken vaginally 3 times per day from day of transfer until BETA test.
Describe your experience with your nurse at Reproductive Care of Indiana. (Assigned nurse: Jamie and Jeni)
Jamie and Jeni were amazing. They were quick to respond. When my medication was shipped it froze during transport and compromised everything. I freaked out. I sent Jamie an email and she called me within 3 minutes and walked through what I needed to do and followed up with the pharmacy to ensure the cycle was not delayed.
I received a prompt email about results, my emails were always returned within 24 hours.
At my follow up appointment the honest and compassion shown by Jeni was amazing. I have dealt with other offices and their care is second to none.
I think the only weakness would be that I wish we were told that medications will be adjusted during the cycle. The office gave us loaners when needed but since we paid out of pocket for the medications. So when we needed replace what we had used we were scambling to come up with $600. If we would have known we would have adjusted and saved more.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
The staff were kind and responsive to our needs. The weakness if the clinic was location. They are 2 hours away from us and all monitoring had to be done at their office so that entailed a lot of travel. They have 3 satellite locations but they are in the southern part of the state and I live in the northern part. I also wish they offered counseling. Living in a state where you have to pay out of pocket for IVF and medications, I feel like there are more people in my position that if it didn't result in a lasting pregnancy there is a lot emotional fallout left over to clean up. A fertility informed therapist would be a wonderful addition to the practice.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
The total cost of care was $16,300. This included medications.
Describe Michael Henry's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
We only had 2 high graded embryos, therefore both were transferred to ensure the greatest probability of success one would implant.

Dr Henry took the time to listen to all my questions and concerns. He gave me hope that having a child was possible...we aren’t able to afford treatments that we truly think we need to conceive such as IVF. We were able to voice some of these to Dr Henry. He was very understanding and didn’t make us feel bad about not being able to afford. He later laid out a plan for cheaper options for us to try. I truly appreciated that he listened and was willing to work with us.

How was your experience with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 15 years. Financially it’s been a difficult road, we aren’t able to afford treatments that we truly think we need to conceive such as IVF. We were able to voice some of these to Dr Henry. He was very understanding and didn’t make us feel bad about not being able to afford. He later laid out a plan for cheaper options for us to try. I truly appreciated that he listened and was willing to work with us.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Voice all your concerns, good or bad.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Dr Henry took the time to listen to all my questions and concerns. He gave me hope that having a child was possible
Describe the protocols Michael Henry used in your cycles at Reproductive Care of Indiana and their degree of success.
My first treatment was
Ovulation Induction Therapy
I started with Provera , 1 pill a day for 10 days . I got a period several days after taking Provera.
On day 3-7 of my cycle,I started Femara (5mg/2 pills).
On day 5-8 of my cycle, I took Gonal-F (75 units)
I did several ultrasounds to monitor the growth of my follicles. Unfortunately, none of my follicles grew to the acceptable size for ovulation. So my treatment was cancelled.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
I felt rushed during some of my ultrasound appointments. The nurse stuck the ultrasound instrument wiggled it around for a few seconds and was able to determine what was going on. Never had that kind of rush sevice.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
Always check what you’re being billed for. Know your insurance coverage and make sure the clinic is processing claims before you pay, if of course you know your insurance will cover certain services.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
Medications such as gonalf , femara,Provera was around $600 or so.
I don’t remember specifically the ultrasound and lab testing costs

How was your experience with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Dr. Henry is very intelligent. He collects information before answering questions. He does his homework and is very knowledgeable about his area of expertise. He may not answer questions in person immediately, but I like that because he thinks before he speaks.
What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Be prepared with questions which you've done some homework on already.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
We recently switched from using Dr. William Gentry (we felt like a number there) to using Dr. Michael Henry. We were greeted by the most amazing nurse, Jamie Walters, who had consulted with Dr. Henry and our Embryologist, Dr. Jaime Hogerty prior to our appointment. They were knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly at the time of consultation in October 2018. We are slated for an Embryo Transfer on March 19th.
Describe the protocols Michael Henry used in your cycles at Reproductive Care of Indiana and their degree of success.
Our first doctor had our first Gestational Surrogate on birth control pills, estrogen, Lupron, and injectable Progesterone. This time around, Dr. Henry has our second Gestational Surrogate on Endometrin and injectable Progesterone. He does not use Lupron.
Describe your experience with your nurse at Reproductive Care of Indiana. (Assigned nurse: Jamie Walters)
Nurse Jamie Walters was extremely compassionate and caring during our first appointment with her and Dr. Henry. She was very organized and knowledgeable. In January, we were communicating via emails and she said quite a few things that weren't pertinent to our situation, and it made me think that she wasn't truly paying attention. It concerned me and my husband.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
As we are newer to this clinic, and Embryo Transfer is slated for March 19th (18 days!!!), I cannot appropriately assess the clinic's strengths or weaknesses, because we haven't had too much experience with them yet.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
As our Gestational Surrogate's insurance doesn't kick in until after we're released to her regular OB/GYN, we have paid $500 in medical screening, and will have to pay $1,800 for the Embryo Transfer, $2,000 in medications for our Surrogate, and $1,000 for three ultrasounds/bloodwork.
Describe Michael Henry's approach to eSET (elective single embryo transfer) vs. multiple embryo transfer at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
Our Embryologist suggested that there may be a possibility that egg quality and/or embryo quality is more fragile than normal. For this reason, she suggested at our second Embryo Transfer to thaw one Embryo, and if it didn't have A+ quality, then we would thaw the second Embryo and transfer both. However, our current Gestational Surrogate only agreed to one at a time.

Dr Henry was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what treatment was needed for me. I was nervous that my treatment required surgical correction, and he was very up front that if I didn’t get the correction that I’d have a 50/50 chance of miscarrying once conceiving. He was correct and I trust all of the decisions made by him.... December 2017- Septate Uterine correction. Diagnosed via ultrasound. February 2018- First round of Clomid/Ovidrel at lowest dose. Labs didn’t indicate there were any additional reasons to escalate treatment further without attempting TI first.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Don’t go anywhere else. The treatment plan is very straight forward and you see the same Dr and nurses every visit. It makes the whole process much less emotionally taxing.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
From the initial consultation Dr Henry addressed all of my concerns and reassured me that the factors likely playing into my infertility (TBD in whole at that point) were treatable.

Describe your experience with your nurse at Reproductive Care of Indiana. (Assigned nurse: Jamie)
My nurse communicated very effectively via email (my preferred method) and by phone. She was very responsive to my questions and was very reassuring. After my first ultrasound and finding out I was pregnant with twins she reassured me everything would be fine, as I only had one egg at the follicle scan. I was in complete shock, but she was so excited for us and gave me a hug as I left in tears of overwhelmed joy.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
I love that I was able to complete all of my surgical treatment, labs, and procedures in one building. Small enough to be personable and see the same Dr/Nurses, but large enough to have the experience and expertise to lead me to conceive on my first round of treatment.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
The treatment of the underlying causes of infertility were covered under insurance. Once working towards concieving the costs were very reasonable and thoroughly explained up front. I even received a refund for some reason months after my last appointment in office.

Describe the protocols Michael Henry used in your cycles at Reproductive Care of Indiana and their degree of success.
Birth control at the beginning. Lupron 20 units for 10 days, to prevent ovulation. Lupron, as long as bloodwork is okay, drops to 10 units with follistem and menopur for 10 days to increase growth/muture of eggs. Hcg shot when doctor states your ready. Day in a half later, retrieval and 5 days later transfer which then you start on progesterone hormones. Progesterone hormone was a vaginal suppository three times daily for me but can be shots. This helps thicken your lining for implantation.
Describe your experience with your nurse at Reproductive Care of Indiana. (Assigned nurse: Jamie and jeni)
The staff is excellent. They are knowledgable about the procedures, schedules and any questions you may have. They are very compassionate and email back as quickly as they can.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
Plan on being at the office longer than expected because some patients have emergencies and get pushed ahead of you. They try to schedule you appropriately and spaced for such occurances.

How was your experience with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
He's got a sense of humor and is always "sure" the next thing will work. But is willing to dive into options if it doesn't. He listens and accepts feedback. He tends to give options for treatment and lets the patient pick rather than just saying "This is what we're doing next." He wants to make sure that you both understand and agree with treatment plans.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Go with a list of questions and educate yourself about options before you get there. It can be overwhelming and he will make sure you understand your options, but he doesn't mention things that he doesn't feel are important.
During treatment, were you treated like a number or a human with Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
Everyone is always super nice and tries not to rush you. They're obviously busy but they take the time to listen and answer your questions. They definitely get to know you after a while.
Describe the protocols Michael Henry used in your cycles at Reproductive Care of Indiana and their degree of success.
First treatment cycle: 100mg Clomid CD 3-7 + Ovidrel trigger CD 12 + 100mg Prometrium CD 17-28. TI. Prometrium was used because I went in with a LPD.
Second treatment cycle: 100mg Clomid CD 3-7 + Ovidrel trigger CD 12. TI. Prometrium not used because my LP was definitely lengthened with the Clomid and trigger.
Tried another Clomid cycle but didn't get the correct response so no trigger. I only have one tube and that ovary got lazy.
First IUI cycle: Femara CD 3-7 + 100mg Follistim CD 5-9 + Ovidrel trigger CD10. IUI CD 12. Didn't get a great response so decided to up the Follistim next time.
Second IUI: Femara CD3-7 + 200mg Follistim CD3-9. IUI cancelled due to poor response on the correct side and too good of a response on the wrong side. Salvaging the cycle would've taken more expensive meds. Decided to switch to Clomid.
Third IUI: 100mg Clomid CD3-7 + 100mg Follistim CD3-9. IUI cancelled for same reasons as last time.
He still thinks we're good candidates for IVF.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff.
It can take some time for them to respond to phone calls. It may not be the same day you call if you don't have an urgent issue and it can be after 5 if you do. But they are incredible resources and can fill any holes in your understanding or answer any questions you have. They are kind and great at communicating when you do hear back from them. They are sometimes overly positive but I don't think that's necessarily a negative.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
Wait times for monitoring or treatments can be long. They take first come-first served so if you're not there early, it may be a while before you're seen. There's only one ultrasound machine and only two nurses so getting through half a dozen women there for monitoring first thing in the morning is a production. They are really good about communicating results and next steps as soon as possible.
Describe the costs associated with your care under Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana.
Ultrasounds at the satellite clinic I went to (including Dr. Henry's fee) were about $200-250. Ultrasounds at the main office were closer to $200. IUI was about $600, I think, but didn't include blood and ultrasound costs. Doctor's consultations were about $230.

They have gone above and beyond for me to succeed. I absolutley love them. Sometimes when they are really busy it's difficult to get answers fast. But they did just hire some extra help.

At this time we are at highest dosage of clomid possible to get me to ovulate. He thinks that this will help and we will be able to go forward with an IUI from here. Before we tried femara, which did nothing and then we tried clomid at 100mg which did nothing as well. So one more go with the clomid before we start thinking about shots or IVF.

Dr Henry was the first to tell me that I have PCOS. He took the time to explain it and what issues we might face. He allowed me to have what control was actually possible for the whole process and instead of just instructions it was always a conversation. He makes you feel extremely comfortable and cared for.... We started with pills then moved to a pill and injection with times intercourse. It allowed us to try as naturally as possible with help of course

Dr Henry was the first to tell me that I have PCOS. He took the time to explain it and what issues we might face.

Describe your experience with your nurse at Reproductive Care of Indiana. (Assigned nurse: Jenny)
Jenny is great! She made me feel so comfortable during my times in the office. She explained things as we went and then when a cycle had to be canceled she was there as a support to me.
Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
The staff is beyond amazing and supportive. Dr Henry personally speaks to you every appointment so you get the next information as quickly as he processes or not waiting for a call a few hours later or even the next day like some doctors. You have choice in the matter and they always try to do less invasive things first before jumping straight into a more painful or expensive thing. I love that they have several satellite offices to help a wider spand of families.

Dr Henry calls after any surgery to check up & give recommendations on the next steps. He is always open for different options & protocol & really listens to me as a patient...During my first consult, he took the time to truly listen to my & my husbands fertility issues. He had taken the time to look over my 2 inch thick chart from my previous clinic & had a game plan in mind. When a protocol isn't working, he does his research & will find a better one.

In my experience, I didn’t feel like I was being heard as a patient. I switched to another Dr. who found a number of treatable underlying issues that Dr. Henry ignored. I asked for different lab tests multiple times and was disregarded without explanation.... I feel that he preferred to increase my fertility meds vs great underlying conditions. I always had to sit in the waiting room for long periods before he was able to see me.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Michael Henry at Reproductive Care of Indiana?
If you truly have unexplained infertility with no symptoms pointing to potential obstacles you may be ok seeing him. However, if you feel that you may have an underlying medical condition causing your infertility I would not recommend. Instead of recommending surgery and medication to treat my conditions, he pushed fertility meds and I ended up miscarrying, likely due to my issues not being treated.

Describe your experience with Reproductive Care of Indiana.
They are easy to work with in terms of getting in for appointments and ultrasounds. I haven't started the IVF process but am hopeful they are just as easy to communicate with. I do wish that they had a couple locations that they partnered with closer to other cities in Indiana to reduce the amount of travel time associated with such frequent visits for routine things like ultrasounds and bloodwork.

He [Dr. Michael Henry] wanted to do medicated iui’s, but he was completely fine when I wanted to do natural cycles. So far neither have produced a pregnancy...He takes the time to listen to your concerns, but he is very matter of fact in stating fertility options and attaches prices to everything. It feels a bit like buying a car...He takes good notes and explains things clearly so you can follow. I had a follow up appointment just to go over the same information, and he explained it again. He is not a conversationalist and just gets to the point, which I appreciate.

Always informative of what needed to happen next and the different options to try and get there. Always seemed certain of what is the next best thing to do when there are options. As an infertility patient, it's frustrating to not know why something doesn't work, but Dr. Henry helps in explaining things the best way he knows how, with different possibilities.... Trust that he is looking out for your best interest. He will sometimes talk to himself when trying to think outloud or figure out what his next step is. Make sure you listen because you can learn a lot from him.
