[quote=Anonymous]No, extracting multiple eggs does not diminish your ovarian reserve. Firstly, there are only so many eggs (say, 35 on the high side) you’d extract. For such a high number of eggs, you would have a healthy ovarian reserve (high multiples of that number). Secondly, every month, the ovaries produce a number of follicles, one or two of which will produce a dominant one that will mature into an egg that may be fertilized. The other follicles, which IVF stimulation would push to also mature into fertilisable eggs, otherwise don’t go back into the reserve and degenerate naturally instead.[/quote]
