low amh level & chances w/IVF

[boudreau]

This is my first time ever posting...or joining anywhere for that matter. I was told today that my AMH level is .03, yet we were encouraged to try at least one round of IVF before donor eggs were discussed. I would love to hear any similar scenarios (good or bad) just to know what to expect. I thought I had done ample reading and was well informed about the process, but after today I feel like I have been thrown in the deep end and very overwhelmed. Any clarity of what I am about to take on would help...

hi there. where are u going to try ivf?

My partner of four years just found out that her amh is.4 and is worried that she won't be able to fall pregnant. When I asked dr what was our best option he suggested donor eggs. Any advise would be great.
Cheers

Hi,

I am also 38, with no children. I received the devastating news 2 months ago that my FSH was 11, estradiol 220, and amh 2.94. I was told IVF was a waste of money and my best chances of getting pregnant was through egg donors! I was shocked, upset, and angry! The doctor's bedside manner was horrendous! We then decided to go to a private fertility specialist and he recommended me taking 75mg of DHEA and to come back in a few months qnd retest my amh and hopefully try a cycle of ivf. I am also seeing an actupuncturist 1x week. The whole thing is horrible when I see everyone around me get prgnant so easily it's heartbreaking! Any advice or stories would greatly be appreciated!

I am 37 and have also had the devestating news on My AMH of 0.1. We have tried 2 rounds of IVF this year and my body has not responded at all.  I am currently going to a Natropath and We are going to give it one last go in September for IVF.  
GodBless !!!!! And I pray everyday that a Miricle will come our way.
When starting Fertility treathing you would think they do your AMA Levels as part of the process not wait 14 months later then do it after 2 failed attempts of IVF.

I am 35 and just completed a round of egg retrieval, went in with 15 measurable follicles and only came out with 6 eggs.  Out of those 6 we only got 4 that grew to perfect 8 cells embryos.  We have to wait a couple months to go back for the transfer... but we are extremely hopefully!
