[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Original Poster here.  Sorry that I didn't post my age in my original question.  I am 38 years old.  Thank you everyone for all of your advice. My RE never mentioned estrogen priming so I will definitely ask him about it at our meeting to discuss this cancelled cycle.  I have also read other poor responders posts that b/c they responded slowly or not very much at all that their REs switched them to IUI so at least the cycle wasn't a complete waste of time.  Even if the chances are slim that it would work I feel like the chances are better than 0 which are my odds when he completely cancels the cycle. I am guessing perhaps b/c we signed up for the multi-cycle discount program that IUI is not included in that contract so maybe that is why he doesn't suggest it.  I will ask all of these questions at my next follow-up visit.  Thanks again everyone for your help!!![/quote]

I don't know about converting to IUI. I guess it would require the follicles to be of size (just few of them)

I would move to another clinic. I liked Shady Grove but being 38-39 I decided on GW. If you want to stay local I would recommend a visit, Dr Frankurter usually is willing to try with OE, more than Shady Grove, you could at least get his opinion on protocols and what he would do differently. If you can afford out-of-state then Cornell or CCRM, they're pricey but have high success rates and I believe Cornell is particularly good with DOR.

If you are ok with donor eggs then Shady Grove is a very good clinic. I think their lab is excellent.

The decision is yours. It's about what's best for you and what you are willing to try out.

Best of luck.
