Only a few follicles - should I continue?
Doctor told me this morning that I only had a few follicles and they were expecting only 2-3 eggs. I know it only take one, but not sure if others have had success. This is our first cycle and I am on aggressive treatment due to my low AMH (.16 ), the doctor said we are close to the most aggressive treatment. Just wondering if anyone else has had success with so few eggs and if I should continue to retrieval or if I should stop and try again hoping for better results?

This is my first ever post on here. Hello everybody.
In 38 and on my second round of IVF/ICSI. I am a very poor responder. Round 1 provided 3 eggs from 4 follicles, none were suitable.
On the second round I again had 3 eggs but from 3 follicles. My right ovary did not join the party at all. 2 were mature enough to be fertilised and 1 succeeded and I am now in my excruciating 2ww after a 3dt of a beautiful, good quality egg with 12 lovely formed cells. (and I know I am bragging here - my greatest biological achievement to date!)
The lady who I buddied up with had 15 egg retrieved and only 2 were mature enough to fertilise and none of them did.
I know this doesn't give the answer you were looking for. But my journey is about hope. I failed spectacularly the first time and got so much further forward in my journey the second time. Even if my 2 ww ends in a BFN and I will try again.
There are so many hurdles to cross in this journey. Just have a little more hope. x
