Did anyone not respond to Gonal F when doing IVF?

Sorry I posted on wrong board.   

ME: 37, DH: 40
TTC since September, 2005 (8 yrs and 9 mos - but who's counting)

Dx: PCOS, Endometriosis, Adenomyosis  
Tried to conceive naturally on just clomid off and on for several years.
IVF #1:  4-24-2014:  Started an IVF Cycle on Clomid, my body didn't respond so it was cancelled.
IVF #2:  7-11-2014:  BFFN :( 

Our RE believes I have an Immune Disorder that destroys my eggs and our embryos.

We decided against any more testing or procedures with Infertility and are Happily waiting to Adopt our little one.

    Hello. I'm so sorry for your struggles. The IF Veterans board is a forum for those with an active (6 month+) history on the IF board and an established connection to the IF community (IF, PAIF, and SAIF). You might want to start on the Infertility board. You'll probably get more responses over there. With that being said, some doctors feel that gonal f & follistim are like coke and pepsi...basically the same. Unfortunately, sometimes it takes a a few different protocols (med types & dosages) to find what works the best for your body. Best of luck to you!
