I think you do have all the answers except the most important one"what is the outcome going to be" and sadly no one has the answer to that.We all wish we knew.I think your chances are still high. AMH of 2 is good.My nurse at CCRM told me anything above 1.5 is OK.Very few people are ...

Hi, I am 31 years old and have an AMH of 2 and FSH 18. We have a male factor also. We are just about to embark on our 1st cycle of IVF but have been told our chances of success are around 5% or less due to my poor ovarian reserve. Last antral follicle count was 6. We have also been advised that ...

Just needed to vent! after being told I have high FSH,I just had an ectopic pregnancy(this last weekend) which resulted in removal of my left tube
I don't get it how I could have had this with my LOW FSH!!

Thanks Riogril and Karen!
I was wondering what dosage you take.I'm taking 200 mg from CVS.Also,which ...

Did they not test your FSH prior to the first IVF? FSH can change from month to month, but they say you're only as good as your highest FSH. If they believe your high FSH is the cause of previous difficulties and failures, I wouldn't rush the next IVF. Do some research on how to lower your FSH ...

I will second what Karen said and I took DHEA and my number of eggs doubled! I also did acupuncture, took COQ10 and my RE added Femara to my antagonist (ganirelix) protocol.

I also heard amazing things of CCRM, a girl I cycled with way back went there when she had all kinds of cycles canceled in ...

Hi all,

I was here some months ago as I had 2 failed IVF cycles at a clinic in Indianapolis.I finally decided to go to CCRM and after all the testing I was diagnosed with a high FSH Day 3 it was 19 and Day 10 it went down to 13.
I started taking DHEA (200 mg) after day 3 which might have lowered ...

I am still looking at other options.Will keep you updated :?

Wonder cat ,I didnt totally trust his opinion too and that was why I posted it here to get some kind of feedback.

to_have_fun08 , I am worried about the same thing,what if I don't get any follicles as the medication ...

What's mini IVF? Is that just the short cycle IVF?

No,the cycle length is the same,only the medication is very less,only $600-1000.They want to get only a few follicles per cycle but do about 3 or more cycles to collect the required number of follicles.
Cost is also less but if you have to do ...

Hello again!
My search for finding the best clinic possible led me to Dr.Silber in St Louis.He didn't waste any time in telling me that I had a very low ovarian reserve :( (without doing any testing) and that Mini IVF was the only option for me and that no other doctor would take me on.
I have been ...

I am also looking into clinics in NY.

good luck to you!

I just went through a cycle at CCRM and I wish I would have done all my cycles there. They are so helpful, honest, and wonderful. Yes, they are honest, and if you want things sugar coated CCRM is not the place for you. However, my results there have been amazing.
BAd experiences happen at all ...
