I have a 12 year old son and had one dnc two years ago. my boyfriend is 42 years old and and have kids. he has good sperm but the tub where the sperm goes through is no good. he has tried 4 ivf with two different females and they didn't work. we are going to try but I am scared it wont work. I just got my amh level back and it is 1.3. I don't know if that is good. I am also thinking if I should do the ivf or the mini ivf. can some one help me

Thank you for your story. I will be doing the ivf cause one of my blood work was on the low side for my age. he said I can do the mini but he feels like a higher dosage of meds will help more. I go next week to start the shots. I am scared. I wonder how many ppl has done the ive and it worked out on the first cycle.

Hi Erika.

I'm not sure if the ivf or mini ivf would be better for you.  This might be something that you want to discuss with your doctor and boyfriend.  It really depends on your individual situation.

We just completed our first round of ivf, and I am not pregnant with twins. I'm 39 and my husband is 48.  So, try to stay positive and know that it can happen!

Good luck! :)
