Hi all, I’m fairly new to the infertility world, I was diagnosed with DOR this summer and since October have been working to start my first IVF cycle. I recently finished priming with Estrace and Provera, but now after two baseline appointments my hormone levels are too high to start treatment. My Dr. is recommending I wait about 2 weeks and do a baseline again with my natural period. Has anyone gone this route? Any advice or success stories? Being this is my first IVF cycle I have nothing to really compare it to.
Yes, I have done cycles both ways (priming and not). This round was no priming and it worked. Last time, I primed and took a fully medicated cycle and I used my best 5AA embryo. not a thing. This time, modified natural cycle with two embryos (5BB and 5BC) and at least one stuck. my first US is Friday so I will find out then. My Dr. said she liked the modified natural cycles because it's as close to nature as possible and while they can replicate a lot of things with medicine, our bodies are still designed to do the best job. Seemed to work for me so far! Good luck!
