[quote=Anonymous]I vote for shared risk having done it the other way.  They didn't have the multi-cycle option when we did it so we opted to pay by the cycle.  I was also 33 with unexplained and a few failed IUI/clomid cycles.  I agree with PP's that SG is VERY strict on freezing.  Although we retrieved 9 eggs the first cycle and had 6 embryos, they implanted one and didn't freeze any others.  Next time we had 12 eggs, 8 embryos and they only froze 1.  The main benefit of SR as I see it is just not having to stress so much and feeling a *little* less pressure.  Without it, we felt like EVERYTHING was riding on the first cycle so when it didn't work, we were really devastated.  I also agree with PP's that SG uses the first cycle to see your response.  In our case, they started with lower doses of everything and then ramped up the second time, which worked.  I guess a lot of it depends on your own risk tolerance and whether you'd be willing/able to keep going if for some reason the first 2 cycles didn't work.  Good luck to you!  SG knows what they're doing so hopefully you'll be starting the new year off with good news before too long.[/quote]
