I got the DE talk today. I'm 33 with good FSH and AFC, but crappy AMH. I was originally dx with UI, but now it's DOR. We attempted IVF three times, but only made it to ER once. We are with SG and they recommend the shared cycle guarantee program. We are going to get a couple of second opinions and wouldn't cycle with DE until at least next year. But I wanted to intro so that I can lurk and ask questions in the meantime. If anyone has any experience with SG's DE program, I'd be interested to hear. Thanks for having me!
I'm sorry for the rough road you've had. We went the DE route when I was about 33 after 2 years of trying and 2 IVF cycles. We travelled from the Midwest to go to SG for their Shared Risk program. We were in the 1:2 Shared Risk but not all inclusive program. We ended up needing 2 cycles for our successful cycle, and the program worked very well for us. We were really pleased with our care. I found that when I first looked at the donor profiles I was slightly disappointed but as I watched the database for a short time I realized that new donors get added (and reserved) very quickly so there ended up being a lot of good options and we ended up with a donor who we were very excited about. Please let me know if you have any more questions about DE at SG that I might be able to answer.

I got the DE talk when I was 35 and I know how overwhelming it is. It took me a year and several more failed attempts before I came to terms with it. This board is great you will learn a ton!
