[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should do IVF. 5% a month isn't cumulative. Each month its5%[/quote]

OP here.  My RE told me it is cumulative. He said I have a 20% chance of getting pregnant with one IVF, or a 30% chance of getting pregnant in 3 years TTC with no treatments.  [b]With those poor odds, I decided not to do IVF because I would only be willing to do it one time[/b].[/quote]

I can't imagine basing my decision entirely on those odds.  There are plenty of women who get pregnant at 40 through IVF.  Also one time?  What if you had frozen embryos?  I feel like you're the same poster who posted in the past about your AMH?  [/quote]

I was the poster with the .4 Amh - i happily did 2 ivfs and would have done more but i have a 10 week old! DOR is a different set of rules and needs to be approached aggressively - i would never tell anyone not to try ivf because your odds are low -  that's the whole reason to do ivf!

I agree. I also have DOR. AMH of less than .01 at age 37. Did one natural cycle IVF and have my miracle baby.  I'm 41.5 and I've had 1 period since he was born. [/quote]

OP here.  I am inspired by your story but how is it possible that one cycle of natural cycle IVF with just one egg allowed you to get pregnant with an AMH of .01?  [b]How is it that that one egg that month turned out to be a good one with such low AMH?  [/b]We've been TTC two years now, and I feel like if I did natural cycle IVF it wouldn't get me anywhere since I've gone through 26 eggs already and all of them were bad.[/quote]

Because fertility often doesn't make any sense.  IVF is your best shot if you can't get pregnant.  [/quote]
