Hi Ladies, I am looking for some advice from others who have had multiple failed cycles and what you done next to get your BFP's.
A little background... we have been TTC for more than 4 years. I have a high FSH (my AMH hasn't been tested but I can imagine its not good). DH has slight MFI but nothing too concerning. I think I am the main problem.
I have just had a chemical on my 3rd ICSI cycle (it was the first time I've ever seen a positive pregnancy test). Due to my high FSH I don't produce many eggs but the ones I have been getting have fertilized. This was our worst cycle yet, I struggled to get my follicles to grow, I stimmed on the highest dose of 450 menopur for 14 days and still only managed to get one mature egg. Amazingly it did divide into a top grade embryo and we had 3dt. We also worked on implantation this time, I had the endo scratch, embryo glue, clexane injections and taking steroids for my immune system. None of this made any difference. My gut is telling me my eggs are not enough, although they divide well I believe there are some genetic abnormalities which is why they are incompetent to implant. Unfortunately I never get enough embryos to do the testing, I've had to transfer whatever we've had.
So, my questions are, have I missed anything? Are there any UK clinics you highly recommend for multiple failed cycle? Is there any hope for my eggs or do I cut my losses? I am very open to using an egg donor and have already starting researching the Greece clinics. Any advice going abroad for DE?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
