[quote=Anonymous]I'm almost 40 and am struggling with secondary infertility (decreased ovarian reserve). I have done 3 medicated (Follistim) IUIs that have failed. I produced 2 eggs with each IUI. I am hesitant to move to IVF and am not sure I want to do so. I found the medicated IUIs to be pretty stressful, both the injections and all the monitoring appointments, and also very difficult logistically to deal with in terms of childcare (I have a 2 year old). How much worse is IVF? For me, the scariest thing is the egg retrieval. I'm not sure I can handle it, quite honestly. Surgery terrifies me. What would you do in this situation? [/quote]
