In a previous post, I noticed you mention you had implantation issues.  How was this determined?  I had a c/p with my last cycle, and I suspect this might come up during my WTF.  We transferred 2 chromosomally normal embryos, which is why I wonder about implantation.  Do you typically have low progesterone?  What did they do different this time for you?

    After my two failed IVF cycles, I consulted with Dr. Braverman, a reproductive immunologist.  He did a full immune work up on me and it was through that he determined that I had autoimmune implantation dysfunction.  The biggest change on my last cycle was adding Neupogen.  We also did an early transfer with assisted hatching.

    As with my previous IVF cycles, I did intralipid infusions, Lovenox and baby aspirin.  I have an autoimmune disease and endo which are indicators that this could be a problem. 

    I don't think my progesterone has ever been checked.  My RE has a pretty set progesterone regimine for IVF cycles.  So, he doesn't believe it needs to be checked.  Since I have DOR, my first fertility treatment was IVF.

    Good luck!

    Me= 37 and DH = 41 

    Dx: DOR, Endo, APA+ (really high beta 2 glycoprotein antibody and high everything else tested), heterozygous MTHFR mutation, positive for lupus anticoagulant, high FSH, low AMH and both tubes blocked (per HSG on 3/8/11)

    IVF #1 - long lupron (with HGH, intralipids, lovenox and BA); 4 retrieved, 3 fertilized; ET 2 blasts and 1 frozen = BFN

    IVF #2 - a version of antagonist with EPP (with HGH, intralipids, lovenox and BA); 6 retrieved, 4 mature, 3 fertilized, 2 blasts and 1 frozen blast transferred on day 5 = BFN.

    IVF #3 April was postponed to May, May was canceled. June/July was canceled. Had a cyst aspiration and then began IVF #3 in August. ER on 8/22; ET on 8/24 with AH. +HPT on 9/5. Beta #1 (11dpo) = 3; Beta #2 (15dpo) = 29; Beta #3 (17dpo) = 60; Beta #4 (19 dpo) = 118. Heartbeat at 6 weeks 6 days =132.  Lil is here!

    TTC#2:  Trigger + TI = BFN; Clomid + Trigger + IUI = BFN.

    IVF #4:  BCP + MDLF + Lovenox = 7R, 1F = Transferred 1 6-cell embryo on day 3 = BFN

    IVF #5:  MDLF + Lovenox = 4R, 1F = Transferred 1 10-cell compacting embryo on day 3 = BFN

    IVF #6:  (New RE):  Long Antagonist November 2014 (transferred two 8 cell grade 1 embryos and froze one blast) = BFN

    FET#1:  BFN

    Thank you for this!  I am going to ask about having a panel done to rule things out.  I was also doing some research about an endometrial biopsy.  My doctor is not a fan of doing things just to do them, but I've spent too much money already and this is my last chance.  Test everything possible to make sure this will work!
