@bwhitta sorry they weren't the results you want. But at least there are some things identified that they can work to improve.
I'll say, I have not seen a single child in our office. I've witnessed two graduations and one couple during their 12 week ultrasounds talking to the clinic staff. I'm not sure if this is just luck or if the clinic is intentionally shielding us from it.
@BWhitta I'm sorry you didn't have better news from the doctor and I know it's hard, but try not to stress too much before your next appointment. Right now you only have a couple pieces of the puzzle and now it's the doctor's turn to come up with a plan that will work for you. You should have a much better picture after your next appointment. ((hugs))
Me: 37 DH: 35
Married since February 2012
TTC since February 2017
10 natural cycles = all BFN
Dx: weak ovulation with possible LPD; Rx: Clomid (4 rounds); Puregon + Ovidrel + TI (3 rounds) 7 medicated cycles (see above) = BFN
During the last medicated cycle, they found a small cyst on an ovary and ordered an MRI to check for endometriosis
May 2018 switched to an RE and did more testing while trying naturally
@BWhitta - haha! I am always good for an over-explanation!
Ugh re: the test results. I'm sorry about the AMH too. It's really tough not having a definitive answer. In your case, there's enough inconsistency that I hope they'll be able to find something!
@Bababatty - just realized I totally missed commenting on your update: AFM Transfer pushed to day 5 (Tuesday), which means they’re happy with how our little embies are growing. We now have 8 of 8 cells or higher. Praying they keep growing!
Great news! Good luck today! Sending you lots of good vibes!!
@BWhitta Ugh frustrating!! I’m sorry your results are not straightforward at all. Hopefully this diet does help regulate things, and maybe there are ways they can regulate your hormones when you’re doing through a cycle (like estrogen patches?)? At least you have more info now.
AFM we transferred yesterday so I’m officially PUPO!! This new clinic gave us a pic so I sent it to my parents to show them their grandembryo and we all joked about which features it got from me and DH. I think I’m doing a good job of moderating my expectations, but it’s only Day 2. We’ve also banked 4, and they were watching 8 more; I suppose they must have decided what’s to become of those 8 by now. Perhaps I should call.
@Bababatty YAY!! So excited for you!!! I love the term "grandembryo"! FX for you having a great TWW and everything working out

@funkykey No, we decided that it wasn’t worth the cost based on my age and since it will probably cost the same amount to do a bunch of FETs and test them in my own body (although more emotionally draining, obviously).
