Low AMH - everybody is welcomed.

[DAISYPRENCESS]

Daisyprencess, I hope your hsg will be fine but nowadays there is a lot they can do about blocked tubes. it does not necessarily mean you need IVF. but I am sure your tubes are fine!

Thank you Briss, that is very kind of you. The doctor actually told me that I should not worry and there wasn't any reason to think that were blocked. So will see...

I am often thinking that another Christmas us coming and my only eish again will be a baby (apart from my family to be fine). I wish all of us get what we want.

 

[Briss]

Daisyprencess, I know what you mean, and it's not just Christmas I find myself thinking what my TTC expectations and hopes were the same time last year and the year before that and so on… I tend to overthink everything and be negative about everything, it does not really help TTC but it's in my nature I cant help it.

I wish you best of luck with your HSG, let us know how it goes

 

[Briss]

just wanted to share an interesting discussion here https://www.babyhopeful.com/anti-mullerian-hormones/ just goes to show how everyone is confused about AMH. US scale puts me in "normal" category while UK puts me in "low fertility". getting low AHM is always depressing but what exactly it means is just not clear. I am thinking AMh is only relevant for IVF as a potential indication of your reaction to stimulating meds (although experience shows that even low AMH ladies sometimes react very well to stimulation)

Hi Briss,

Thank you for this information. I don't know what really to think because the first tine when I tested years ago (twice) my doctor in Bulgaria did not tell my about my AMH. She mentioned something about my overies but she did not say that I should have worried. But since then it has been 4 - 5 years and no baby . I believe I had several chemical pregnancies. If my tubes are ok I will be right. Which makes me think that the quality of my eggs is bad ;-(.

 

[Briss]

Has your DH been checked?

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

Yes, he gas been. His results are good:

Sperm concentration: 65.00 M/ml
Morphology: 10%
Motility at 37°C
Excellent progression: 36%

I also found out that in Bulgaria they did not test my AMH.

 

[Briss]

your DH's result is very good. It's really annoying that you are not getting your BFP yet but I do not think it's anything to do with AMH. Maybe your immune system is very strong and it destroys your DH's sperm? have you checked your lining? there might be some implantation issues hence chemical pregnancies? unexplained infertility is always hard. have you tried chinese medicine?

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

My results from the ultrasound came back good:

"A normal anteverted uterus in shape, size, and echotexture measuring 73 × 34 × 53mm.

The endometrium appears smooth and regular an measures 12mm in thickness.
No vascularity seen.

Both ovaries appear sonographically normal with the presents of follicles.
Right - 17 × 10 × 11mm.
Left - 33 × 25 × 14mm.

No obvious adnexal masses noted.
Small amount of free fluid noted in the POD measuring 11mm in depth. "

 

[Briss]

looks good, did they count your antral follicles? what day of your cycle was it?

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

I think it was CD21. This is the whole information I have been given by now . My next appointment is on 12th of November. I will have a lot of questions answered. I hope.

 

[Briss]

all looks good I think. I am not sure if 12 mm lining is Ok for CD21 though; mine is around 10-11 mm on CD 11

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

Well, she said it was ok.

Hi,
I'm 39 years and have been ttc for 2 years (since mc/blighted ovum). I have DD who is nearly 6 and she took nearly 2 years to conceive and I had to use metformin then.

Just today I got my amh results which have floored me completely -very low/undetectible levels.

All my other bloods (Day3 and Day21)came back normal but scan revealed pco, not pcos as I don't have other symtpoms. What's strange is that I'm ovulating regularly which is confimred by bbt and I thought that the metformin would sort me out again. But now I suppose any eggs being released may be poor quality. I feel so upset that it's turned out to be something that I can't do anything about. The info on the internet is confusing and conflicting don't you think?

Anyway at this stage I just don't know if I can cope continuing with having OH having SA and myself the hsg scan now, if in the end I can't even afford ivf...


Good luck with hsg on 3rd.

Hi, I am going for hsg tomorrow. I have been trying to conceive for 6 years now. I have been trying to convince myself that I cannot have a baby but is very hard. I have good results from the blood test (though I haven't done 14 and 21 CD, I did them long time ago and they were good). I am like living on stand by at the moment. I don't know what to expect. What to think.

I will say a pray for you. GL. Keep us updated.

Hi Briss,

Just to let you know that my hsg went well. My tubes are open. How are you?

Hi Briss,

Just to let you know that my hsg went well. My tubes are open. How are you?

fantastic news!! although i was sure it will be fine.

i've just had our embryo transfer still cant believe it, now preying and hoping it will grow and stick. I took Monday off and am going to take it easy next few days

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

OMG!!! I am so happy for you. I will pray with you to stick. How many did day transfer?
Have just nice thoughts in your head. Don't worry about anything. Everything will be fine. .

 

[Briss]

thank you. it was day 2 transfer, 4 sell embryo. because it's natural IVF and we only get one egg they think it's better to get it into uterus as soon as it starts dividing

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

Hi, Briss, how are you? Are you resting?

I feel so good this month because we are not trying. Well, I also don't have patience for next month .

I hope you are doing well. Xxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Briss]

Hi Daisyprencess, I also took half day off work today but now back in the office. I am trying not to strain myself and take it easy. I've been cramping on and off and it's a bit disappointing but I am still hoping.
