[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should do IVF. 5% a month isn't cumulative. Each month its5%[/quote]

OP here.  My RE told me it is cumulative. He said I have a 20% chance of getting pregnant with one IVF, or a 30% chance of getting pregnant in 3 years TTC with no treatments.  With those poor odds, I decided not to do IVF because I would only be willing to do it one time.[/quote]

What about doing a shared risk program? I just ask because it's offered by Shady Grove where I did IVF. The single payment is higher than doing a solo IVF, but you get up to six cycles. Also 20% odds of pregnancy with an IVF cycle is fairly low - is that due to your AMH results? I guess moving forwards depends on how much you want another child...it definitely is not inexpensive. Also just putting it out there that the year I did an IVF cycle our medical costs were high enough (> 8% of our income) that I was able to claim a deduction on our tax returns that got us thousands back in a refund. Just something helpful to keep in mind if you are struggling with costs.[/quote]
