I usually have about 4-7 follicles during my other cycles, and on this low-stim protocol I've only managed a lead follicle, or two smaller ones that would need to catch up (at the sacrifice of my lead follicle). Incredibly disappointing - while I know DOR is a tough journey, I've never had to cancel a cycle or switch to IUI until now.

Now deciding if we call it, try for one last round doing a different protocol, and if so do we stick to Cornell or try CCRM or even just go back to SGF. Ugh!!

Why cancel it? Just get the one egg. It’s probably the best.

Worse stats than you at 37. Amh was <.01 and afc was 3. Did natural cycle with dominion. Worked on the first try. I’m pretty sure it was my last egg.

in our case, he suggested doing fresh transfer of day 3 embryos , not freezing and testing them

SGF never mentioned doing that strategy

Sgf doesn't really believe that the data supports d3 transfers. Drs are split on it as a strategy. Some say that embryos grow better inside and some say that the d3 embryo will never become a blast inside or out

I write this as someone who has undergone 1 successful d3 and many failed d3 transfers, as well as unsuccessful and one successful d5 transfer, I'm not sure that sgf are wrong. D3 are great for people who don't make blasts, but sometimes (at least in my case) there was a reason that we don't make blasts and I didn't make them once they were transferred either. I did many d3 transfers with Dr. Davis and they all failed.
