[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I initially had 10-11 follicles. It went down to 8. Then it went down to 5 and 4 leading up to the procedure. At extraction, only 2 follicles had eggs. [/quote] OP, have you considered adding DHEA as a supplement? It Starts with the Egg gives a good rundown of it. Also, given those numbers, you definitely need to change your protocol (and maybe your doctor, too). Typically, you see the number of eggs retrieved relatively close to your AFC (or even in some cases higher). Some people also suggest doing back to back cycles, because of the cumulative effect of the hormones essentially putting your ovaries into overdrive. FWIW, I froze 19 eggs at 36, and now have a healthy baby from those eggs. Plus this was years ago when the technology was not as good as it is now, so you definitely have hope. [/quote]
