Hi ladies - looking for advice and success stories. Below is our story. Any advice appreciated.
Me - 36 DH - 49 (low motility)
Jan 2015 - TTC naturally for 6 months then started having irregular cycles - never received a positive OPK
Saw RE checked hormone levels - ruled out PCOS although I do get cysts from time to time. Normal FSH and thyroid levels. First time AMH tested was .69 second test 1.92. Tested for low vitamin D after 4 month of supplements now at normal level. AFC = 8-9
June 2016 hysteroscopy to clear lining and check for fibroids - everything normal
July 2016 - failed IUI with clomid and trigger shot
Aug 2016 - failed IUI - no clomid but did use trigger
Nov 2016 - 1st failed IVF - 300 gonal f and 150 menopur for 13 days - 6 days of cetroide. 7 follicles - sizes: 2 @ 21, 16, 15, 2 @ 14, 12.5. E2 at 1440 day of trigger.
ER: 5 retrieved, only 1 mature, failed to fertilize with ICSI.
It seems like I had a slow response to stims and my eggs never reached full maturity despite being on high doses of stims. Has anyone experienced this? Did you try a different protocol with better results?
Thanks for reading.
