[quote=Anonymous]I think both are good, but if you're older and not having much success with typical protocols, I think Davis is a good option.  He will do consults if you want to see what he thinks of your particular case before you commit to going there.

I did the consult, but didn't go b/c I did a round at SG and ended up with significantly more eggs than the 2 rounds I did at Dominion (which I also liked, so not a slam).  The consult with Davis was centered around DOR and an assumption that I'd probably not be able to get all that many eggs, so it seemed like (and at the time was) a good choice to stick with SG.  My #s were pretty good for 41 (FSH 6, AMH 0.9, AFC 9 or 10?), so not clear cut DOR.  Well, I got up to 15 eggs, but they were all crap and didn't do much past day 3.  So, I ended up going back to Dominion and doing a mini-stim protocol, like the protocol Davis had recommended.  I got only slightly fewer eggs, but more blasts, although they ended in a chemical.  I called it quits(ish) and did DE.  I'm so very happy I did, now that I'm finally pregnant again (this was for #2 - first was without difficulty and forever top of my things to be thankful for list, with the ability to do DE being a close second).  My conclusion after 8 rounds plus DE is that IVF over 40 is a different ball game and involves more luck than science.  Hopefully, that changes even if it's too late for me!

I hope you are lucky earlier than I was![/quote]
