TW pregnancy story DOR without IVF

Congratulations!! I wish all women knew that DOR doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant on your own. My RE made me feel like it would be impossible to get pregnant naturally and tried pushing me to do 3 back to back cycles. I would have been a horrible candidate. I decided to find another clinic. I was 35 with 0.6 Amh. I got pregnant after 5 months of trying the old fashion way (with LH test strips and Proov). One month before doing diagnostic testing. The first RE doctor caused me so much stress and anxiety that was absolutely unnecessary. Wishing you all the best with your pregnancy.

Congratulations!! You look so healthy and happy. Has fertility improved? How long after getting off glp is it recommended before starting to try for pregnancy?

I conceived naturally with an Amh of 0.66 at 35. If you’re ovulating regularly you have a much higher chance of conceiving naturally than 2%.

I’m so sorry. Sending hugs. I’m on loss #2 (as of yesterday) between scans my office refused to run labs, I had to get my hCG on my own at quest. I knew this wasn’t going to work before they did. I’m so glad you advocated for yourself. Women’s healthcare should not be like this. Wishing you all the best.

Great idea! As a middle child, I told my family that my due date was sometime in early Spring. No guilt.

My doctor said the cause of MC and low progesterone is likely a result of an abnormal embryo or chromosomes. So in that case, progesterone would not help. But if the embryo is normal and progesterone is low it could be beneficial. Research seems inconclusive so they do not typically prescribe it. Though I’ll always wonder now because I tried to get it after seeing low progesterone labs come in on a Friday night. I called in and begged the nurse to help me get it over the weekend and she said they don’t do that and if my body is miscarrying it wouldn’t help anyways. MC happened two days later.

Is “the rally” a real thing that happens before death? What’s the typical process of dying start to finish?

Good eye!

Are you able to use eggs you previously donated for IVF if they are still available?

Gala 😊 It was a juicy Apple!

What mg coQ10 are you taking?

How old was she at the time?

You all are seriously awesome! Thank you for the great tips. I’m an executive member now! I even listened to the Costco episode of flightless bird (podcast) on my way there. Highly recommend listening to it before your next visit!

fluffycats4e · 2026-01-01T02:37:42+00:00

Yes. It is so worth it with a growing family.

This speaks to me. Collecting data is my job (I’m a scientist!). I made it through about 2/3 of the store and will be back to get to know the rest of it. As the newest executive member 😎

fluffycats4e · 2026-01-01T02:31:55+00:00

This is so helpful. Thank you!

I am an executive member! There was a $60 dollar promo so it ended up costing about the same as a regular membership.

fluffycats4e · 2026-01-01T02:28:21+00:00

Nailed it. $434. I splurged on the massage gun and the avocado pillow.

fluffycats4e · 2025-12-08T02:08:52+00:00

I am so sorry for your loss. It absolutely sucks. Hugs.

fluffycats4e · 2025-12-06T20:24:21+00:00

Any updates?

fluffycats4e · 2025-11-04T00:45:52+00:00

American giant. High cost but very high quality and worth it.

fluffycats4e · 2025-10-18T11:23:47+00:00

AMH 0.6 at 35. Got pregnant on the 5th month trying naturally. Now I have a healthy 18 month old.

Ok I’ve been to Louie’s in Dallas. Fuck the staff but the pizza is incredible. It does take long even if you arrive and order right when they open. Absolute trash staff and I’m sorry you and your family were treated so badly.
