*FRAN*

I saw you mention in another thread that your mom went through early menopause.  Mine did as well.  She started around 38.  That's only 3 1/2 years older than I am now!!!  I'm so scared that is related to my diminshed ovarian reserve and it terrifies me that I may have such a short time span to complete my family.

  • Yeah my mom went through menopause between age 32 and 34 when she had to have a hysterectomy due to complications.  It why when I got married at age 25 we didn't wait to TTC and when charting/OPK's showed I wasn't Oing (and I was going months w/o a period) I got reproductive help so quickly.  

    I'm sure either your OB or RE has done the FSH levels testing on day 3.  This gives an indication of your ovarian reserve.  I would ask how that turned out.  At least that way you would know if this is also a concern.

  • Yeah, it's in my siggy. It's already elevated at only 33 years old.

  • Oh duh!  I should have noticed that!  I take it that was your testing earlier this month.  Yeah, this early menopause thing SUCKS!  If it wasn't for it my family planning would have been very different.
