TTC after 35

Hmm. Labs not looking great?

So, still new to this but finally had time to call my RE today since I had never heard from them re: my labs at the first week of May. Did get my HSG results from the doctor performing it, but only because I was, you know there. :P Not crazy impressed w/ them at the moment. Anyway, since CD 1 is likely looming, thought I'd touch base and see if there was anything they wanted me to do apart from calling on CD 1 to set up for CD 3 blood work and an ultrasound and whatever else a clomid challenge entails.

Anyway, yeah, they had my labs. Thyroid fx all fine (tho I have heard of endocrinologists who might consider my TSH a little high, but whatevs), vitamin D low (yeah, I live in Oregon and worked nights until 6 weeks ago, not a surprise and in fact confirmed by my primary 2 weeks ago and I've already started supplementing). But the AMH, ouch. 0.34. I am not sure which "scale" that was on, I didn't have a pen and she didn't say. But either way, really low. So. Yeah. We'll see how the clomid challenge goes I guess. But I guess there are options out there. Just bummed me out a bit.

    I am sure, if there were any alarms for them, they would point it out, I would think.  Best of luck, as you move forward......

  • AMH is a on the low side, but remember it's the quality of eggs that matters-not as much the quantity.  GL with your CD3 lab work.  Wishing you all the best with your Clomid challenge test.

  • dont' freak out until you get your FSH and AFC... that gives you a clearer picture...

    also don't be so quick to dismiss TSH... you didn't say what it was, but if it is over 3 that is too high for TTC and high in general under new guidelines by th
