Comedian Heo Anna, at 43, attempted her first in vitro fertilization procedure and candidly disclosed even the egg retrieval process.
Heo Anna on the 8th shared on her personal channel a video titled "Can I get pregnant with my first IVF at 43? The day I get my first injection," detailing the start of her pregnancy preparations.
In the video, Heo Anna administered the injections prescribed by the infertility clinic herself and, nervously, said, "I clearly heard a full explanation at the hospital, but when I actually saw the injection, why can't I remember anything? Is it just me?" Yet she did not lose her signature cheerfulness, joking about her appearance, "I looked like a chimp seeing something for the first time, so I kept laughing while editing."
On the 10th she released a video titled "First ever egg retrieval! What will happen? Infertility diary," revealing her appearance on the day of the retrieval. Before the retrieval, Heo Anna gave herself four injections in her abdomen and showed her swollen belly, explaining, "It's puffed up because of the injections." The released footage also showed her wrapped in a towel checking her belly in the mirror and saying, "I showered and came out on the day of retrieval," and "Wow, it's really swollen."
After taking medication, Heo Anna said, "An hour later my stomach was wobbling a lot and a bit painful. Is this normal?" and worried, "Is it stomach pain or gas?" Support has continued for Heo Anna, who is candidly sharing everything from the first step of the IVF procedure to the egg retrieval process.
Meanwhile, Heo Anna married theater actor Oh Kyung-ju in 2019.
