[quote=Anonymous]I don't know WTF is wrong with my body. I have one child from mini IVF in 2012 (I was 30). In 2014, about a year ago, I went through conventional IVF at Shady Grove (Shared Risk) and got around 12 eggs which turned into 2 blasts. One blast took but was abnormal, found out in 2nd trimester and terminated. Second blast frozen.

In May of this year our Dr let us do another cycle before using the frozen blast. It was abysmal. I was on the highest dose of everything (antagonist protocol, same as before), and ended up with 6 or so eggs retrieved, and one mature, which didn't make it to blast. After this we decided to try for an FET after testing and finding out our blast from the previous cycle was normal. Didn't implant.

A couple weeks ago, I started the estrogen priming protocol... seems like a lot of ladies on here have had success with that. I've been on the patch and started stims 3 days ago. Again, pretty much max dose. This morning I went in for my first monitoring appt and things are not looking promising. Basically I have 2 decent sized follicles and a few tiny ones. My Dr who saw me today all but said he expected we would have to cancel. We're going to reevaluate once he gets my BW today and then after my next monitoring on Saturday.

I just don't understand how I could do fairly well only a year ago and then go through these two awful cycles. I know this isn't a done deal yet it sure seems like it's headed that way. I don't know whether to stick with Shared Risk or move onto Cornell, which would practically bleed us dry, or just throw in the towel. I know no one here will have the magic answer but I need advice. I feel so lost. There is also no trying naturally for us.[/quote]
