This tread seems to be inactive for a while. I hope that I can somehow revive it and get accompanied by other ladies with DE experience or facing the option of DE to walk down the path.
We have
ttc for more than 7 years. In 2007, I had an ectopic natural pregnancy. We began IVF since 2010. So far, we have had 5 IVFs, all
BFN, except for one chemical in IVF#2. Our last IVF yielded no embryos to place back, which is the worst outcome to date.
DH’s sperms are perfect and I have history of endometriosis and uterine fibroid; one tube was removed due to the ectopic. We have tried 4x short protocol, 1x long protocol. The last protocol we tried was a short protocol triggered with GnRH agonist, which was supposed to improve egg maturation. Because of the failure of my last cycle, the
RE thinks that we have fundamental problems and suggest us use DE.
Using DE is quite a shocking concept to me. I still hold strongly the idea that DNA is the sole materials one inherits from his/her parents. At the same time, I cannot bear the idea of asking my youngest sister as the ED.
Here am I now to seek supports for ideas, options, etc.
