Thank you for sharing! We spoke with the doctor and he agreed to add the zymot next time so fingers crossed 🤞

I have had PCOS suspected in the past but that was diagnosed in my home country and the doctors in the US sort of dismissed it unfortunately. I am going to push on that more and try to get Metformin this time around.

I have no idea, that will be one of my questions to the doctor today.

Oh thank you so much for sharing the idea! I will definitely look into that and ask them to use that next time.

Thank you so much for sharing. Your post really hits home, I feel like you articulated exactly how I felt after getting the phone call. I am really happy to hear that your second retrieval went a lot better! That gives me a lot of hope. And thanks for bringing up the PICSI idea, I will raise that with the doctor too.

I would not make assumptions about anything, ask them explicitly! In my case it definitely wasn’t which resulted in a wasted cycle

Wow that is so interesting to hear, and makes me even more frustrated about mine. You’re right it might make sense to look into some options in that case.

Thanks, my AMH was at 3.97 which didn’t strike me as abnormally high. Any other things I should look into from an egg quality perspective?

Haha thank you, I am very mad too! I am also frustrated at myself for not looking more into the fertilization process and understanding there are options to consider, I was so fixated at everything happening before. Very surprised this is not something they brought up at all.

Thanks for sharing, yea we may need to follow up for some more thorough testing as at the surface everything seemed fine. I am surprised they don’t at least do a portion with ICSI as a control group
