[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - which immunity tests did you do? Which treatments did they recommend?

Have you done a RPL panel too? Clotting factors, etc?

How is your thyroid? What is your TSH?

FWIW, after dabbling with a few IVF cycles down here and the immunity path, we finally found success at Cornell. If you want your absolute best shot with OE, just go there IMO.

OP here. I've had my thyroid tested about 5 times in the last two years.  Always normal results and TSH is 2.1.  I have asked each Dr. whether this is too high and they all said it is perfectly fine for TTC.

I have not had RPL panel done because I have not had any RPLs.  I just cannot get pregnant and Dr. Abassi believes I have repeat implantation failure.  I have not done the clotting panel yet.  I did the Beers blood test--it tested for about 10 different things.[/quote]

I think Dr. Abassi felt that overall my eggs are probably good, given that my FSH and estrogen are all good/normal, as well as my AFC, even if my AMH is bad.  (FSH, 7; estrogen, 50, AFC, 12).  This is what Cornell and GW also said (they basically said we're going to disregard your AMH because other nu,bers are good).  But the fact remains that I have not had a single BFP in 2 years of trying.  Dr. Abassi suspected repeat implantation failure issues, ran tests, and my immune numbers are pretty much uniformly abnormal.

So you can see why I'm confused and not sure what to think or how to proceed.  But this discussion is very helpful!

Seems strange to me that Abassi would think implantation failures when your numbers, age and response to stims suggest bad eggs. It makes me think she is just telling you what she thinks you want to hear. Given your reluctance to do multiple cycles, maybe you should go directly to donor egg.[/quote][/quote]
