Success after IF

I am back!

Hi ladies!  I was an avid poster on the boards here for a while but about a year ago I stopped posting after our 3rd fresh IVF cycle failed :(  We did another fresh cycle in December, sadly it ended in a CP (our 2nd fresh cycle also ended in a CP). It was however the first time we made it to a 5 day transfer, our only issue is severe MFI.  My question is have any of you had success after numerous IVF cycles?  We have done everything under the sun - ICSI, PICSI, assisted hatching, coculture, various vitamins, every test known to man!  My hubby is not open to donor sperm, at least not yet...we have 2 fresh and 3 frozen cycles left in our package so will be cycling again in the next few months.  Our REs office is amazing and have gone so above and beyond trying to make our dreams comes true.  I just wanted to say hello and hope you are all doing well :)

  • We did three fresh IVF cycles. IVF 1 was cancelled just before ER, IVF 2 resulted in a blighted ovum, IVF 3 brought us our DD.

    Good luck! I hope your next cycle does it for you! I know you said you live your RE, but have you looked into a second opinion? Not that you need to switch, but maybe a eval by a different RE might give you a different plan for your next cycle.

  • Thank you all ladies!  We actually did have a phone consult with Dr Sasson at Shady Grove and he actually agreed with the diagnosis and treatments so far - what is causing my hubby's severe MFI is an elevated FSH which they say is like menopause in a man so there is nothing they can do for it :(  He did recommend a vitamin called Conception XR which he took with the last cycle, first time we ever made it to a 5dt but it sadly ended in a CP :(  So he is taking it again now in preparation for our next fresh cycle - thanks for welcoming me back with open arms! :)
