  • I haven't heard of this before...what is it, exactly?

    It is in vitro maturation.  From what my RE sent me today, it is experimental at this point but seems to be good for those who may be at risk for hyper stimulation, which I am the opposite.  It is where immature eggs are retrieved and matured in a solution for 24-48 hours and then inseminated.  It is also an option for cancer patients. Some of the material I found, though said it may be good for women who have a poor response to stimming, which I am.  It's something I was considering pursuing.
