| We are starting the process in July, and I am just curious to see how many eggs were retrieved, blasted, and came out normal. If you can share your age and AMH. |
| I think 16 eggs, 15 viable, 11 embryos, 6 blasts, 5 normal, first implantation successful. Age 35, don’t know AMH |
| Age 40: 9 retrieved, 9 mature, 9 fertilized, 4 blasts (3 males, 1 female), 2 PGS normal (one of each gender), only one took (female). Good luck OP. |
| PP here. I forgot: AMH was around 0.85 |
| AMH 2.98. 18 eggs retried 16 fertilized. 11 blasts. 9 XX 2 XY. PGS tested and 7 females were healthy. 1 female euploid and the two males were mosaic. My clinic said this outcome was very rare, but I don’t know. |
Age early 30s. 1 child (male) conceived naturally several years before (after failed IUIs but before IVF). I have suspected endometriosis and husband has low morphology. |
|
4 retrievals from 35 to 40. (2 egg freezing, then 2 embryo banking cycles)
33 eggs total, 7 blasts, 3 normals - 2 F, 1 M. The normals were from 36 and 39 year old retrievals (retrievals 2 and 3) 1 F miscarriage, 1 F successful pregnancy, 1 M still frozen (RE picked order of transfer by perceived quality) AMH ranged from 2 down to 1.2 over the five years. |
| OP here. Thanks all, my AMH is 7, which the doctor said is good, but I am worried about quality over quantity. It seems like people with an AMH of 2 or above have great results. |
Do you have PCOS? That is sometimes correlated with higher AMH. My friend with PCOS had something like 40 eggs retrieved (late twenties) and ended up around 8 healthy PGS tested embryos. Even if it’s quantity over quality, if you’re relatively young, percentage wise you hopefully better out with a good number of healthy embryos. |
| Amh <.01 retrieved one, it fertilized, was normal, healthy male. |
| At the time of retrieval, I was 36 with an AMH of 11 (PCOS). 22 retrieved but only 12 fertilized, 7 made it to blast. Of those 7, only 3 were normal, and they were all female. |
|
39. AMH 2. 9 retrieved. 3 fertilized. 0 made it to blast.
Sperm issue that even PISCI couldn’t overcome. |
Hi - would you mind sharing what the sperm issue was? I suspect a possible sperm issue but the count, morphology, etc. are all within normal ranges but we’ve never had good fertilization rates even with donor eggs. |
Well basically the sperm were just all wrong. Most deformed and even the good ones didn’t move like they are supposed to. DH’s parameters were always pretty bad but Dr thought with PISCI we could salvage some. But apparently not! |

We did 4 rounds in total. From the first 3 rounds, we transferred a total of 8 untested embryos, 6 of which were blasts. Three blasts didn't take, and the other 3 I miscarried. I had 2 D&Cs, and genetic results showed they were female. In our 4th round, we got 13 eggs, 12 fertilized, and 9 embryos made it to blast for testing. Six came back normal (4 male, 2 female). The 3 abnormals were all female. The first male transferred took and is an active 17 month old.
I somehow got pregnant naturally when my son was 11 months. I just entered the third trimester with another boy. We just have better luck with males I guess. It's always been really fascinating to me. I started the IVF process when I was 27 with an AMH of 2. No known issues. We had success at age 29. |
