How to bring down high fsh level, considering the estradiol is not an option!

I never had this high fsh!! Last month I supposed to start my ivf cycle, so we primed with estradiol. On day two of US my ovaries were asleep, 1-2 follicles in total. Obviously my fsh was really low 5.6 due to priming. I told my doctor that I think estradiol actually is not a good option for me since it suppresses my ovaries.

Long story short, this month I didn’t prime but what shocked me was that my fsh came back 14.5.

My doctor thought it’s not a good cycle! I’m paying everything out of pocket also so it’s really important for me to do the right cycle. But at the same time it frustrating not being able to start!!

My question is ( knowing that fsh fluctuates) what can I do to bring my fsh down?
