[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have similar numbers as you except I'm 35 and to be honest my RE would probably be giving you the donor egg speech right now, because she just gave me the same speech. Hate to be so brutally honest, but age is a huge factor, especially with DOR. Not to say that it can't happen, but managing expectations is key. [/quote]

OP here. No one has mentioned donor eggs yet.  They are all very pessimistic about my chances of success though (less than 1% chance of getting pregnant naturally, less than 10% chance with IVF).  Even though I got pregnant right away the first time and had an easy pregnancy.  I also had a laparoscopy and they didn't find anything wrong.  Tubes are clear, uterus is fine, sperm fine, AFC is okay, but AMH is low (though the REs said they put more stock in my AFC because the AMH doesn't match up).  Why can't I get pregnant a second time?????[/quote]

I'm sorry.  Nobody here can do anything other than guess, and you have much more info than we do.  Fertility testing is not perfect, and loads of people suffer from unexplained secondary infertility.  If you didn't get a lot of eggs from IVF, then that tells you as much if not more than AMH or AFC, because all those tests can really predict is how you'll respond to ovarian stimulation.

[b]There are studies showing that many people with DOR can get pregnant easily.  But some people can't. [/b] They don't know why.  [/quote]

Do you have any links on that?  I'm DOR and unexplained, but I feel like I fall into that second category.  I would love to read more about it. [/quote]
