[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I had many years to think about it because after trying for many years, and many ARTs, for my first, I got pregnant naturally. 
I chose to skip traditional IVF and do NC IVF. The theory is that the "best" egg will come forward instead of just a bunch of eggs that may or may not be good. I didn't think of be a good responder, and I didn't want to pump myself full of drugs to get a bunch of crappy eggs. 
Anyway, it worked on the first try.

There is nothing to substantiate what you called "in theory" - you get the egg you get, if the majority of AMA eggs are abnormal, you have a higher chance of getting 1 normal out of X (multiple) than having 1 out of 1 to be normal. This is the reason most practices don't to NC IVF.[/quote]

Except that just because most of your eggs are abnormal toward the end of fertility, it doesn't mean that you ovulate them. So, by forcing your body to ovulate a bunch of eggs, you are getting a bunch of abnormal ones that wouldn't necessarily come out otherwise. [/quote]
