[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]18:02 - I cross posted with your last post. I agree with you on what you said - everybody, of course would rather have 10-15 eggs, but I'm trying to convey that under ten eggs can still mean success, especially if the woman is younger.

I like to contemplate this issue because my RE thought there would only be a very small chance for me to get pregnant with twins, as I was 39, and diagnosed with DOR, so we'd have a low number of eggs, most of which (guessing based on my age) would be of lower quality. Yet even though I produced only 7 mature eggs (on very high doses of stims), I am now almost in the third trimester with twins (I was hoping for twins, so that was good news for me). What this anecdotal experience shows is that while they can predict your ovarian response, they cannot necessarily predict your egg quality.[/quote]

Hi PP, I remember your case probably because I am also 39 and, if not daring to hope certainly would not mind twins (I am one of the pro-twin posters from recent threads). Are you the one whose RE said about 7 out of 10 eggs at our age are compromised? [/quote]
