[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go to an RE that specializes in DOR. There are a few in Manhattan. Run actually.

BTDT.

Had a .3 AMH at 33, took many rounds to find the right clinic that wont just blast you with max stims and shrug. By 37 it was undetectable. I have two DD’s 7 and 2 (own eggs) that i had at 37 and 42 once i found the right clinic. For me in was Generation Next and  Dr Luk. Good luck. We didnt want to use donor eggs for personal reasons[/quote]

I am looking for an outside monitor in DMV area. I will start IVF with Dr Luk next month. May I which clinic you used for outside monitor? Better one that accepts my BCBS FEP insurance for the outside monitoring.  Thanks.[/quote]

I'm not the same poster but also did NYC/outside monitoring; after a lot of research, I went to Annandale OBGYN (they hvae multiple offices) because a lot of CNY patients go there, and they became so popular and well-versed in how to do the outside monitoring that they hired more technicians just to support this. It means early appts (like 7AM), but they can draw your blood on-site and send to Labcorp quickly to get the same-day results your clinic will require. Then closer to the retrieval, you'll go up to NYC for daily monitoring.

Also FWIW, I was 37 with bad DOR when I started for 2nd kid. Low AMH, high FSH (think it was 16 when I got tested at 37? eventually got it down to 12 but they say it's as good as your highest #), never conceived in 4 years of unprotected sex (our 1st kid was IUI baby), and did 5 IVF retrievals at 3 different clinics without success. Ended up conceiving naturally at 39 - so, I fully acknowledge these stories are rare and i personally hated hearing them bc realistically it doesn't happen for everyone and gives false hope. I guess my point is, unfortunately none of us hvae control over the final outcome - just know your limits and be open to anything and everything. I had pretty much given up and was trying to help my husband process the reality of having "only" one (which is a huge blessing in itself, I know), and originally said no to the wham-bam before I had to rush out of town lol. It was my husband who pressed, I ran out the door to catch my train, walked 30K steps in NYC the next 3 days and ate like total shit (was amaaaze) and that was my son.

Wishing you the best of luck, and whatever happens, that you are at peace with your journey. [/quote]
About 1 in 10 couples who gave up on IVF after one or more failed cycles will conceive.

We conceived on technically infertile sperm counts (<1 million).

You can't bank on it to start decorating a nursery, but it is worth trying every month. [/quote]
