Anyone has real life experience on how egg quality was increased and any suggestions on what to do and what supplements to take. Out of 12 fertilized eggs retrieved during Ivf, only one made it through blastocyst. Doctor said the eggs were dark and small. Doctor is convinced egg quality is bad. I’m 32 and I feel ...

Currently 10 weeks 2 days. I did 2 egg retrievals and 3 failed embryo transfers, did a monitored natural cycle while waiting for insurance to process my final IVF cycle and got pregnant.

I’m about to finalise my payment for going through IVF privately… but I’m second-guessing myself constantly and wondering should we just “keep trying naturally” even though I know that won’t work! 🫣 Is it normal to have these doubts?!

I've just had blood test prior to starting ivf and my amh level is 11. Consultant said this was fine. When I questioned what fine meant was it normal or just within range he said they would prefer 15 / 16 but that's being picky and 11 is fine. I'm seeing all sorts of numbers online and wondering what 11 means exa...
