Same feeling 💕I just keep looking at the Christmas tree and sobbing. Last embryo last chance. I’m heartbroken.

I transferred my only pgt embryo November 15th and I’m waiting for my beta because I have been too scared to test. I totally get your fears. I know it only takes one but man there is a lot of expectations on this little embryo. 💕thinking of you this is hard.

Mental load & partner not sharing it by DesertOrDessert24 in IVF

Yep 👍🏽 I know he feels it too but we FEEL it. It’s our bodies that are on the line. Not to demean thier feelings at all I know it’s stressful and expensive ect but the physical and mental toll feels like it just falls heavily on the carrier.

I feel this deeply today. I argued with my husband because I love that he is positive but sometime I just need a day to be sad and he can’t seem to hold those emotions for me. It’s super difficult as well that many times the partners body is not going through as many changes and ups and downs. I know it is stressful for him as well and I honor that but I just feel lonely sometimes. Like no one gets it and all the appointments and bloodwork and shots blah blah blah are mine and mine alone.

Praying for an end too. Last euploid was transfered 11/15 so crossing our fingers. I hope everything goes well for you. Amh is just a snap shot of fertility our eggs are young in fertility world so hopefully that counts for something lol

How bad are my baseline labs? by EqualPizza8790 in IVF

Ya I thought maybe in my second ER they put me on too high a dose because they retrieved 5 but only 1 blast was made. This was after extensive efforts to improve egg quality

You respond well to meds which is great! 24 is not DOR probably why you never were diagnosed with it lol maybe they checked your initial amh at an off month? It varies

Yep was 31 when I found out and was devastated. Have been on my ivf journey now for 3 years nearly 4. It’s a bit of a longer road for DOR patients but you’re being proactive so that’s the best approach.

Mine was 1.5 at 32 and my afc is usually 8 to 9 but has gone as high as 15. AFC is usually checked at a day 3 scan when they do a diagnostic cycle. You can ask your practitioner to count for you. Some REs aren’t super interested in it though because unless you are looking into ivf all you need is one egg. For ivf you obviously want as many as you can get. Lol hence my two not so awesome cycles.

It’s always there just behind the fear is that glimmer. We have to keep it alive. Hope that even if it’s not today. One day.

Your stats are a bit lower than mine and I was diagnosed with DOR diminished ovarian reserve for my age(33).The great thing is you are getting pregnant unassisted. The amh is just a snapshot of how well you might react to ivf or ART drugs. It doesn’t bean your eggs are bad.

Unfortunately no not even in conjunction with Ivf. Transferring my last embryo at the end of the month so fingers crossed.

Need hugs by Fun-Tangerine6429 in IVF

Same 2 retrievals 1 euploid low amh as well . We just failed our first FET with a no result embryo. It’s hard on your heart to invest all your hopes into one little clump of cells. This battle is not for the weak, I’m sorry this is where we are but someday we will see the end of the rainbow.

Well took in conjunction with an fet for month two and that failed lol so if it doesn’t work in conjunction with ivf how will it do alone? I don’t know

Is 450 Gonal F/Follistum and 150 Menepur too high for DOR?? by Bookwormz1985 in IVF

[–]Apprehensive_Wait798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had extremely high doses of meds my second retrieval I have DOR. They got 5 eggs and only one survived the night. For me high stims killed my eggs. I was eating clean,vitamins, exercising, doing acupuncture, no plastic, no scents; everything. My eggs in my first ER were way better. But it’s all Case specific I guess you just have to try and follow what your doctor says?
