[quote=Anonymous]Hi! I guess I am just posting here for a little encouragement and/or inspiration from others.... While I frequent and respond to MANY of the forums/threads on DCUM- This is only my 2nd thread as the OP.

I am 44 and have been TTC as a single woman w/ multiple IVF's/IUI's & donor sperm over the past 5 years! I have never even had a single BFP.  The only reason I am continuing despite the dismal odds is that I have a "free" cycle. I am also simultaneously actively persuing adoption (which I am thrilled about.) I just want to be at peace knowing I did EVERYTHING I could to conceive and feel "good/proud" of that.

Fast forward to about 1 year ago....I began attempting NCIVF (previous cycles were all stimulated.) In that time- All cycles were cancelled due to FSH/estrogen levels and early ovulation (before ganarelix would have been appropriate because follicles were too small at that point.)

Well- today is CD12 and everything WAS going great! My body was doing what it was "supposed" to naturally. I was monitored VERY closely (3 mornings in a row) and "if" all went well I  would have likely triggered tonight. However- I went in this morning and my follicles grew 3mm from 15 (yesterday) to 18 (today) and bloodwork confirmed I was surging :(

Life goes on...And I will try against next month (despite the odds) and diligently continue w/ the arduous adoption process and keep the faith that I will "get" the little one I am meant to have.

Thanks for reading and best of luck to everyone.
