[quote=Anonymous]My good friend had this issue, although had never had a child and was 37.  I think her FSH was in the 30s.  She still had regular cycles and tried NCIVF once, but the egg didn't fertilize.  She also did the general testing and found that a tube was blocked.  She had that fixed and got pregnant within a couple months naturally.  I hope you're as lucky.  The good news for you is that you're 35 and your egg quality is likely OK, if not the reserve.  I have the opposite problem, as I'm 40+, so I'm moving on to DE after 6 IVF cycles that all yielded a high # of eggs for my age.  If it works, I'm sure I'll wish I did it sooner.

With very FSH levels, the stim drugs have less of an effect to no effect at all.  The IVF drugs that cause people to produce multiple eggs are nautral or synthetic forms of FSH and the doses that they can give aren't going to make a difference if your body has already realized that it needs more and more to develop an egg.  I don't know if 22 is too high for the use of any stims by a specialist, but it will be too high for most REs around here.  It may be worth a consult with Dr. Davis at Cornell to see.[/quote]
