[quote=Anonymous]OP, totally get your frustration and confusion about how this happened after getting pregnant easily once. I had primary infertility at 28, completely unexplained - all my numbers were fantastic - and I had had a spontaneous pregnancy once before that (lost to miscarriage). One of the things that was hardest about that was that I really wanted to know the ANSWER - I do honestly think that understanding what was or wasn't happening and why would have been so, so helpful to me. The fact that I had a spontaneous pregnancy prior indicated that it should be able to happen again! But it didn't. Ultimately, what sucks is you probably won't ever understand why this is happening. (Fertility is just not that well understood yet!) It makes everything harder: emotionally, decision-makingwise, etc.

My understanding, though, is that AMH and FSH are numbers that are very helpful in finding out how likely it is that IUI/IVF will work for you. They may be less helpful in determining whether or not you will get pregnant naturally (check that out here: https://www.fertilityiq.com/topics/egg-freezing/why-you-shouldnt-use-fertility-tests-to-predict-your-ability-to-get) -- which might explain your relative ease at a natural pregnancy at 36 and the challenges you have encountered later (if you have been using fertility treatments).
