Low AMH... Help

in Infertility
We have TTC for 16 months and finally got pregnant but it wasn't viable so we had a DNC on 4/14/15. Been seeing a fertility specialist for three months now. We will be having our 4th IUI next week. We need 6 IUIs before insurance will cover our IVF cycles. I am 35 (almost 36 in January) and the only thing wrong with my blood work was my AMH level which was 0.56 and I ovulate a few days early. Anyone have any success pregnancies with a low AMH at my age? Feeling discouraged...

    Hi @LSatturo126 I haven't had a successful pregnancy yet... but I'm 34 and was diagnosed with Low AMH last year a a few days after my 33rd Birthday. My AMH level at the time was 0.39. First thing I would say is ask your doctor what your antral follicle count is, that is the number of visible follicles resting in your ovaries, it is a good predictor of the number of mature follicles they will be able to stimulate in your ovaries! When mine was done she saw 5 resting and so my RE was pretty positive that they could get at least 5  mature eggs and so we moved forward with IVF. With lower AMH getting pregnant naturally and with IUI is not impossible but the percentage is very low so that is why she suggested we move ahead with IVF asap. Low AMH doesn't necessarily mean the quantity of your eggs is bad, you could very well have good egg quality, just low egg reserve. With Low AMH you often times will ovulate early so doing ART will definitely help you control the cycle to get a better chance at maturing the follicle. 

    I hope everything works out for you!!!
