This group is open to anyone who has Diminished Ovarian Reserve or Premature Ovarian Failure (sometimes also called Primary Ovarian Insufficiency ? POI).
This check-in will be posted each Wednesday. If you?d like to be added to this group, please reply to this message, and I?ll make sure to add you for next week. Welcome to the lurkers! We know this can be a difficult journey, but we welcome you with open arms. Let us know if we can answer any questions.
GRADUATES ARE WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED TO POST!
Status Update: What is going on in your cycle or where are you in your process?
QOTW (from a member): Just curious how many POFers (or POI same thing) have primary POF or is everyone pretty much secondary? Just curious since I am primary.....
***If you have a question for other DOR ladies and don?t mind me asking it in the check-in please let me know! I am always looking for question ideas, so let me know if you have any thoughts about QOTW!***
BFPs!
