Hi I'm 34 years old and intially my husband and I saw a RE due too low sperm count after all the tests it turned out I also had poor egg quality. I just completed my first IVF cycle and had my BETA test this morning. Unfortunately it was unsuccessful and I am devastated.
Hi @Bambam2004 I'm very sorry for the bad news, there's not much I can say other than give yourself whatever time you need to get over the disappointment, but don't lose hope. I had 3 failed IUI's and 1 failed IVF with fet and it was very difficult after all the time, emotional and financial investment. This site is a great place to find support and to know that you are not alone... I wish you the best!

@Bambam2004 I am so sorry. I know it is difficult. Take as much time or as little as you need. This is a hard journey. You have support.

Hi, Bambam!
I'm sorry for your failed cycle. I had them 2. And I know how you're feeling so
that I'm sending you lots of gentle hugs, hun 6 years ago I happened
to survive 2 miscarriages in a row. What a disaster was it for every single
being in our large family. All they were super supportive but here not people
but time heals. Our journey took us 7 long years and finally ended in Ukrainian
clinic where we used donor egg for IVF. From the very beginning our RE gave us
5% verdict of conceiving with own eggs (I'm endo and PCOS sufferer) so we
decided to go straight to DE not to waste precious time. Of course I tried
surgery to boost my chances twice. But it brought me no success though only
resulted in my left ovary scarring. Well, I'm not sure you want to read
all these details which may not relate to you, but just knowing you're not
alone with the problem really helps. Ladies here are very nice, so I guess soon
you'll see a lot of massages from the lovelies passing IVF treatment right now,
so that you can share your thought. Wish you all the best of luck with your
next round <3Take some time to heal, take care of yourself and keep positive
thinking, hun. Will be praying for you.
@Angelic789 thanks so much I really appreciate your support I haven't left the house since my BETA 6/22. Today is my first day back at work and I've been here for an hour and have already had a melt down. I'm glad to be out of the house. Again thanks for sharing. Have a great day!
