low ovarian reserve -- any hope?

[Anonymous]

I am 38 with AMH of .02. With such low fertility, I didn't think there was a chance I would get pregnant naturally. It's been less than 3 months and I just found out I am pregnant. I know it is costly but there is obviously a chance of getting pregnant with low ovarian reserve so it may be worth a try! Good luck!

I had an AMH of 0.79 at 38. Did one round of IVF at 39 (almost a year later), and got pregnant with twins on the first try. AFC was around 8-10 and I got 7 mature eggs.

I did take 200-300mg of ubiquinol per day for about 9 months prior to the IVF, because there are some studies that shows it improves egg quality.

I got pregnant twice with an amh of 1.1 and an fsh of 27 (ack). Miscarried first - have 19 mo from second. Did natural cycle iui with a trigger shot. Went back 9 mos later and amh was .9 and got pregnant on first iui again and am due in 2 weeks. Delivered first at 34 and am now 36. All that said I only did the first iui bc I was waiting to start my cycle at cornell w dr Davis and figured why not try. Cornell was pretty clear that at my age low amh was indicative of fewer eggs and most likely poor response to ivf but not necessarily poor egg quality. My AFC was usually like 6-8 ish. I remember my local RE saying that he did get ONE woman pregnant w an fsh of 25 - so I was seriously devastated. That said - it worked!

What is the highest FSH anyone has had who got pregnant w/ her own eggs? I am 33 w/ SUPER high FSH (in the 100s, yes you read that correctly). I've been diagnosed w/ POI/POF and am doing a DE cycle, so really I'm just curious.
