Yes, congratulations!

To other people who may be coming to this thread, remember that while it's important to compare statistics, you need to look at the data on patients, too. Last I checked, Columbia's patients tended to have much higher FSH levels than, well, practically any other clinic. If that's not your problem, their numbers may not be as relevant to you.

Totally totally agree with the prior post. I would never have been accepted at Shady Grove. Columbia took a chance and I got pregnant after a couple of attempts. Please don't be fooled by stats alone. I know a number of people at Shady Grove whose cycles were canceled after low egg counts, so I believe are not counted in the stats.

And even if you don't get pregnant with such a high FSH, don't you want some clinic to at least give it a shot so you know you tried everything before taking another route (eg egg donation, adoption).

Not saying Shady Grove is a bad place, but I think that are way too focused on keeping their stats up. Just my opinion.

I did IVF at SG and I had high FSH, produced very few eggs, but was successful with the third cycle. I was 32 at the time. Dr. Levy was my doctor and I highly, highly recommend him. I just wanted to post because never once did I ever get the impression that they could not or would not help me.
