[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t have experience with CCRM but switched from SG to GW and am 9 weeks pregnant. I just turned 40. The low dose, no muscular injections, protocol was perfect for me. SG was unwilling to even consider non injection options when it was apparent I couldn’t handle their standard protocol. Dr F told me he doesn’t want to pump me full of drugs to get a ton of eggs that may not be good quality. He wants to get quality eggs (even if it’s not as many) and mimic my own bodies hormone levels. And it worked. I’m obviously very pleased. Good luck with your decision. [/quote]

Can I ask what your AMH and FSH are?  What meds are in your protocol?  [/quote]

I forget what my AMH and FSH was but at GW I had subcutaneous injections, it also involves estrogen patches and progesterone capsules that you insert vaginally. If you get a positive test then you continue on the patches and capsules until you’re 10 weeks along. [/quote]

How many eggs did you get retrieved?  Do you have decreased ovarian reserve?  I'm your age and met with GW recently, they told me I have less than a 10% chance of success with one round of IVF so I'm not sure I want to do it given the cost.[/quote]

I don’t have DOR. With my first retrieval at SG they retrieved 26 eggs, 18 were fertilized and 13 made it to blast. Of those 13, only 5 were PGS tested normal. With GW, they didn’t want to pump me full of drugs and they retrieved 18, fertilized 23, 7 made it to blast and only one tested normal. I don’t remember what they said my chances were but it was low. Definitely less than 30 I want to say. [/quote]
