why extracting the secret message from the quantized DCT coefficient of the setgo image gives different message?

4 views (last 30 days)
when embedding DCT steganography this is the process
I did DCT on image value to switch to the transform domain
I did the quantization of the DCT coefficients
then I tried to hide in the LSB of each quantized DCT coefficients (that are not the DC or Zero or 1)
dequantization
inverse DCT
then same the stego image
===========================
for extracting (here I have a problem )
1) I did the dct for the stego image value
2) quantization
3) then I tried to extract the LSB of these coefficients
however, I got a very different message
===================
would you please inform me is this process that I am using is wrong or correct and why it is not working for me
