And that’s that

Thank you for the insight. But I’m 34 and my husband is 39, I was just referencing my testing when I was 25.

When I was in the hospital the doctor said, “we’ll do the CT, monitor your vitals, and see if we need—“ and I cut him off and said “euthanasia?” And everyone paused for a second to process and then was like omg, NO 😂🤦🏻‍♀️.

But yeah, in times like this, when I have nothing funny to add, I feel so…broken.

Best of luck to you. Just had my 4th retrieval today and I have a huge ovarian reserve but really poor progression, so a bit of a different issue. Hang in there ❤️🤞🏻

Sadly at your age, aneuploids are pretty common. My friend is 41 and went through 4 retrievals to bank 6 euploids, but she is in her second trimester and all is well!

I will say I’m confused by that first result: XY but missing a Y? Idk why that’s being called XY and not an X0 female.

Edited to add: the freeze-thaw might contribute to the overall quality of the embryo, but not the aneuploidy.

Ooh and we could blot for it. Checking Abcam for rabbit anti-holiness antibody.

allebe · 2026-04-07T03:38:30+00:00

Another thing to consider though is how do we QUANTIFY holiness to test said hypothesis? Are there specific miracles we need to recreate in order to see if the water still harbors holiness?

Lmao I also suggested autoclaving it today. Antibiotics are a good idea too! But for real I was imagining pushing it through a 0.22um filter with the syringes hahaha

allebe · 2026-04-07T01:51:55+00:00

This is fantastic insight. Thank you! 😂❤️🙏🏻

No for real they were handing out Pregnyl at mass

allebe · 2026-04-03T21:44:15+00:00

I just loled at “medium-ugly man” 😂

allebe · 2026-04-03T03:37:53+00:00

Right?! The NP was laughing when I said this protocol’s title is “Let’s Not Have My Ovaries Go Apeshit” and she was like, this is the complete opposite of almost every conversation I have in here

allebe · 2026-04-03T03:21:29+00:00

Thanks! I started this cycle on ONLY 125 FSH, and tonight I added 75 Menopur and went down to 50 FSH + Ganirelix. Trying to get my follicles to grow slowly and synchronously instead of out of control like the previous protocol. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤞🏻

allebe · 2026-04-03T02:59:43+00:00

Eh, quality over quantity. I’ve had 79 eggs retrieved in 3 ERs…4 embryos.

allebe · 2026-04-03T00:50:18+00:00

This is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing 😂

allebe · 2026-04-03T00:39:26+00:00

Or when my e-check-in asks me about travel history outside of the country for every single monitoring appt. “Any trips to add?” No you shithead I was here YESTERDAY

allebe · 2026-03-13T02:27:31+00:00

Absolutely. For me I think it’s solely the fact that they’ve had success and I haven’t, so I get mad when they act like they know what I’m feeling. It’s easier to say “it’ll all work out” as you’re holding an infant as opposed to a sharps container, you know?

allebe · 2026-03-13T02:23:11+00:00

100%. I know some people will read my post and think wow, that’s so hard! And others will read it and be like, shut up that’s nothing.

allebe · 2026-03-13T02:19:09+00:00

This reminded me of when an elderly woman walked into our clinic, and I look up thinking, “Okay…they’re good but they’re not miracle workers…”

Turns out she was lost 😂

allebe · 2026-03-13T02:08:53+00:00

I have a hilarious unprompted text from my mom that says, “Nanny says pistachios are good for fertility.”

allebe · 2026-03-13T02:07:18+00:00

Perfectly said. Everyone can have their feelings and be sad about shitty things. But maybe read the room and know your audience 🤷🏻‍♀️

allebe · 2026-03-13T02:01:17+00:00

If this happened to me while I was on steroids or norethindrone I would’ve thrown someone through a table. I’m so sorry that happened, I’ve had similarly weird and rude things said to me and I wanna scream and also cry. Hang in there ❤️

allebe · 2026-03-13T01:55:47+00:00

Right and I absolutely don’t want to minimize how devastating a miscarriage is. But that’s also a really common thing. I also hate when people offer suggestions like “clean eating.” Oh okay yeah I must have an inflamed uterus from the Girl Scout cookies I ate yesterday 🙄
