I don't think you'll get any definitive answers here although the fact that your numbers have not moved significantly perhaps means that you are not menopausal.  
A few thoughts:

1.  According to the monograph Aetna published, they don't view AMH as reliable enough yet although they place a  lot of stock in FSH.  A friend of mine had her AMH improve over two years.  There is probably some margin for error in the AMH readings and different labs may come up with different numbers.  In other words, I would not place too much stock in the fact that your AMH decreased only slightly.  Perhaps it is a good sign but perhaps not.

2.  AMH and FSH don't tell you about egg quality.

3. I would have a candid conversation with your doctor about your chances each cycle and after three cycles.  Is there anything she hasn't tried yet; a stone left unturned?

best of luck.

#2.  Your eggs are 5 years older.  If you're 41 now, that's your answer.  Unfortunately nothing is going to make your eggs younger -- no supplement is going to help.  sorry to be so blunt.  you can keep trying or move to DE.  [/quote]

Sorry -- just read that you're 42.  your eggs are 42 years old now.  (i did DE at 42, after 2 failed IVFs at 41. ) [/quote]
