IVM?

in Trouble TTC

Has anyone done this?  I am most likely going to have my 2nd IVF cycle canceled due to overstimulation.  Even on a small dose of stims I am making 40 eggs and already have fluid in my abdomen, I've been dropped to 25 u follistim over the weekend and will go back Monday. 

 But I since I respond too well to stims it seems I am not a good IVF canidate, but since I have endo, I only have 1 good tube and scarring, other methods haven't worked either.  My RE said he could refer me to a someone who did IVM if needed, I did some research on it, but wanted to see if anyone had had any experience with it.

    It's when they take the eggs out before they reach maturity and allow them to mature in a lab and then fertilze them.? It's for people who over produce and are at risk of OHSS or have PCOS.

    Hey Jamie, try the Infertility board... one of the ladies might have some info on it for you over there.
