Ans: Hello, sorry to hear about your breast cancer, but the best part is breast cancer is curable

Before we start the procedure, we need to know your AMH level (to know your ovarian reserve) and basic blood work up to get your fitness fir the procedure
The procedure normally needs first 15 days of your cycle where you will need to undergo 3 to 4 scans to monitor the egg growth (follicle growth) and injections from day 2 of your periods till the eggs grow and mature
These injections are safe in form of LH OR FSH hormone. It can sometimes cause
Nausea vomit, constipation, mood swings, low abdominal heaviness, breast tenderness.
These are experienced by some.
Once you are ready then you will be admitted as day care procedure and egg retrieval done under short anesthesia. You will be able to go home in 6 to 7 hours.
During this period of stimulation, you can do regular routine work.
Zumba, jumping and heavy activities avoided during stim.

If you delay further the quality and quantity of eggs gets hampered.

Ans: Investing for one year requires a strategy prioritising safety, liquidity, and reasonable returns. Let us explore suitable options and their benefits.

Understanding Short-Term Investment Needs
Time Frame: One year or less.
Objective: Generate good returns while ensuring minimal risk.
Considerations: Tax implications and ease of withdrawal.
Recommended Investment Categories
1. Debt Mutual Funds
Why Choose: These funds invest in fixed-income securities.
Benefits: Stable returns with low risk.
Ideal Types: Ultra-short duration funds or low-duration funds.
Taxation: Gains taxed as per your income slab.
2. Fixed Deposits with Banks
Why Choose: Bank FDs are a secure option for short-term needs.
Benefits: Guaranteed returns with no market risk.
Interest Rate: Competitive for one-year tenure.
Taxation: Interest is added to taxable income.
3. Arbitrage Funds
Why Choose: These funds leverage market inefficiencies.
Benefits: Tax-efficient returns with minimal risk.
Taxation: Treated as equity funds.
4. Recurring Deposits (RDs)
Why Choose: RDs are suitable for disciplined savings.
Benefits: Fixed returns with no market risk.
Taxation: Interest is taxable.
Why Avoid High-Risk Investments
Short-term investments should prioritise stability.
Equity-oriented investments are volatile in the short term.
High returns come with higher risks, unsuitable for one year.
Active Management vs Index Funds
Avoid Index Funds: These are passive and less flexible for short durations.
Prefer Actively Managed Funds: Fund managers actively optimise returns.
Tax-Efficient Withdrawals
Plan withdrawals to minimise tax liability.
Consider funds with indexation benefits for long-term tax efficiency.
Steps to Start
1. Choose the Right Platform
Invest through an MFD with CFP credentials.
Avoid direct funds for better support and advice.
2. Allocate Wisely
Diversify across debt funds, FDs, and arbitrage funds.
Ensure balance between risk and return.
3. Monitor Regularly
Track fund performance to ensure expected returns.
Be prepared to shift if performance lags.
4. Plan for Reinvestment
At the end of one year, assess gains.
Reinvest in suitable options to maximise growth.
Finally
Short-term investing needs careful selection of options that balance safety and returns. Choose debt mutual funds, bank FDs, or arbitrage funds to meet your objective. Avoid equity-oriented investments for one year. Consult a Certified Financial Planner for tailored guidance.
