[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't have info to respond re: donor egg question, but I did want to weigh in on the egg quality concern. The concern is very real, but there are things you can do in the IVF process.  First, the whole process actually lends itself to getting the best egg (watching them hatch, getting to blastocyst stage, only implanting the healthiest one). But also, you can use  Pre-Implantation Genetic Screening (PGS), which is an extra step that examines your embryos for chromosomal abnormalities. It's got an above 95% success rate. If that's your only concern, I would talk to an RE before you skip straight to DE.[/quote]

That assumes that in the first place she will have embryos that will make it to blastocycst, which is not a given. Even if they do, it assumes that some will be normal, again, not a given. And it also assumes that a normal one will implant, which is also not a given (there could be lining or other issues).

With DE again, it's not a given that a PGS tested normal embryo will implant, it may take more than 1 cycle.

OP, you FSH is very high. I would research it and talk to an RE about the implications. [/quote]
