[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you were overstimmed and the eggs were a little burned. I bet that they will adjust your protocol next time to get fewer eggs that are higher quality. Are you very light weight? My RE said it can be harder to not overstim on women who are very small. [/quote] I am average weight (5’4” / 135), but as others guessed, I do have PCOS. How frustrating! I feel like the doctor didn’t take that into account sufficiently, based on what you’re saying. Ugh. [/quote] Another factor with PCOS is that the outer layer of the egg can be a bit tough for the sperm to penetrate. That, in addition to overstimming/frying the eggs. Ask for a low/slow antagonist protocol, and do ICSI. I’m sorry, OP. I know this has to be incredibly disheartening.[/quote]
