[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I'm 38, not 40, but my ovaries appear to be 40+.

Anyhow, I was organizing my file cabinet today and found my notes from one of my consultations with an RE who is an expert in DOR.  My notes say that he predicts a 30-40% chance that I will be pregnant in 3 years naturally (I went for a consult a year ago).  I had forgotten about that and thought it was interesting.  I remember him saying that he thinks I'm sub-fertile and not infertile (actually the other REs I've consulted with also said that). [b]So maybe my situation isn't as hopeless as I thought in terms of getting pregnant naturally[/b]?[/quote]

No one knows.  However if you want to get pregnant the best way to do this is to move forward with IVF.  Stop consulting with REs (you seem to do a lot of that) and simply have some treatments done!  Also seriously get off the statistics talk.  You're obsessed with talking about success rates and this doctor said X chance and another said X.  Look no one knows until you give IVF a try!

We tried for four years.  Testing revealed nothing.  We pass every test with flying colors.  I got pregnant the first try with IVF.  It's no big deal and I'm so glad I went through with it.  [/quote]
