From ‘Conceived on the First Try’ to a Life-Changing Miracle’  Dr. Yi-En Chang helped me fulfill dream of motherhood despite at an elder age—and have my Mom met her grandchild
#Success Story #Next-to-be

Dr. Chang changed our lives—truly, even the destiny of our entire family.
For Ms. Chen, who was over 40, this wasn’t an exaggeration—it was a heartfelt expression of gratitude after years of twist-and-turn and mental stress. After countless failed attempts to conceive, she finally got pregnant and gave birth to a healthy baby with the help of Dr. Chang. This also allowed her mother, who was battling pancreatic cancer, to fulfill her last wish—seeing her grandchild with her own eyes.

Repeated setbacks at other clinics, treatment constantly interrupted
During her fertility journey at other clinics, Ms. Chen faced numerous delays in embryo implantation due to uterine polyps and fibroids. Doctors were concerned about implantation risks and had her undergoing repeated surgeries to fix. Each phase, from removing the polyps and fibroids to post surgery recovery, was an emotional and physical suffering.
"I was originally scheduled for an embryo transfer in March, but because of recurring polyps and fibroid issues, it ended up being delayed for half a year." With both age and time working against her, her greatest fear was that her ailing mother wouldn’t live long enough to meet grandchild.

Returning to the starting point of trust, opening up a brand new chapter.
After much inner struggle, Ms. Chen remembered Dr. Chang, whom she had consulted years ago at Taipei Medical University Hospital. In May 2024, she brought her records and came to TFC, seeking out Dr. Chang once again. After carefully reviewing her past medical reports, Dr. Chang sincerely asked, "Are you willing to start over from the beginning with us?"

This time, she chose to trust.
Dr. Chang tailor made Ms. Chen had an entirely new treatment plan: 7 eggs retrieved, embryos successfully cultivated , and after PGS (Preimplantation Genetic Screening), embryo transfer was done on July 4th, and she got pregnant on the very first try and it took her less than 3 months.

Well balanced warmness and professionalism: a doctor who walked with her through the hardest times
Ms. Chen shared that Dr. Chang’s calm demeanor and gentle manner made each of her appointments very reassuring. He remembered every detail of her previous visits, which meant a lot to someone who had gone through repeated delays and setbacks.
She once considered transferring two embryos to try for twins, but Dr. Chang advised against it due to risks associated with advanced maternal age, blood pressure, and fetal health. At the end, she did experience blood pressure and amniotic fluid issues during her pregnancy—making her grateful she had chosen the safer path.

Not just a life changed—but a whole family’s hope restored
Ms. Chen said with deep emotion: “This child’s arrival was not only the fulfillment of my dream but also my mother’s final wish.” This joy was a shared transformation for the entire family.
She also wants to encourage other parents trying to conceive: “Even if you're older or your AMH level isn't ideal, don't give up. Seek medical help early, follow professional advice, and take it step by step—there is always hope and success is still possible.”
