[quote=Anonymous]I did IVF a decade ago, so I am not up to date on the research. But as I recall, empty follicle syndrome is different from few follicles or lots of immature eggs. So you started at 10-11 follies and ended up w two mature eggs. How the cycle progressed and whether follicles disappeared or didn’t progress or were empty makes a difference, I think. Also your protocol. I was older than you and had strong cycles with every follicle (10-12 per cycle) having a mature egg retrieved and fertilized and progress . . . on a low dose protocol. Older ovaries are sensitive to high doses of gonadotropins. So maybe if you were on a high dose regimen, ask your RE about a lower stim protocol. Worked for me but I also had pretty low FSH. Also know that if you are a low responder, research shows that response tops out at 450 IUs daily max, maybe lower. Best of luck to you. I stopped 10 years ago and now have to go get the result to bed. 😊[/quote]
