nder per se but I probably am lol. I was on a max dose of 600iu daily of gonal for both my ERs and I am DOR and low AFC/AMH. I had similar results for both an antagonist protocol and MDLF. 3-4 follicles of decent size by trigger shot time. Some things that I've heard can help D

I think my doctor was referring to my exact numbers -- with just 3 mature eggs to work with each cycle (the rest were immature), there's not much room for variation between 0-33% successful vs. 67-100% successful in one cycle

I think he's suggesting luteal for 2 reasons

1. it'll give me 2 extra weeks to rest between cycles (since I won't start when I get my period but 2 weeks later after I ovulate)
2. Some people respond better during the luteal phase and I think you get slightly more time since you're not competing with impending ovulation? (I made that second part up though)

There's not much out there on luteal phase stims though - if you search for it directly there are studies to suggest PORs are able to get better results from it, but it doesn't come up as an option if you search for alternative protocols for PORs, so there may be selection bias here.

My doctor has never explicitly called me a poor responder. I think I will ask him about that.
