Ok, a little bit about my story first...I'm 29 turning 30 in November. I'm currently in my TWW of our 20th month TTC. After 10 months TTC I fell pregnant but had a MC - I found out at my 12 week scan that my baby had stopped growing at 9 weeks. It wasn't passing naturally so I had a D&C, it was the worst week of my life.
Another 10 months on, still nothing. I've had tests galore which have all come up fine. Until now...
My GP had referred me to a specialist coz she she thought emotionally for me it was time as I'm really struggling with it all, and the tests she was running wasn't bringing anything up. I couldn't get in to see the FS until July...I was devo. My GP said, so that I wasn't just waiting doing nothing and sending myself insane she would do a few more tests that weren't so obvious just so that the FS has as much info as possible when I do see him to save him time. One of the tests was an AMH blood test to check my egg reserve. Ideally your levels should be between 14-30. I was 8.1. Another punch in the guts!
My GP rung my FS straight away and managed to get them to bring my appointment forward to 3rd June. Hubby and I have more tests to be done between now and then.
I used to be addicted to forums but after my MC I had to stop, it was doing my head in, I was monitoring everything, so I needed a break to try and relax and "just let things happen naturally"...but that hasn't worked either.
But now after these test results I'm just feeling like I need to speak to someone and hopefully find someone going through or who has gone through the same thing. I know I need to wait to speak to my FS, but the research I've found says that people with a low egg reserve have higher risk of MC, less chance of fertilisation and that generally IVF is a lost cause, or at elast there's a lesser chance of it working coz they can't extract enough eggs. I'm almost losing it! I need some positive outcomes from people who've experienced this or know of someone who has.
Is there anyone?? Please help!!
