Experience with growth hormone?

Hi everyone,

I'm about to start my 3rd cycle of IVF. The first cycle we had 5 embryos that went for PGT-A testing, and 3 tested abnormal, one was untested and one wasn't developed enough. So in the second cycle we decided not to test, got 11 eggs, 8 fertilised, 2 day 5 transferred (bfn) and the remaining 6 didn't make it to blastocyst on day 6. So really disappointed. We're about to start the next cycle, and the clinic has recommend growth hormone this time, and potentially steroids. My partner is uneasy about this and he seems more keen on going egg donor route, I'm not so sure.

Does anyone have any experience or advice they can share please on these options? I'm 42, fast running out of money, and getting frustrated with my partner who seems to ask the questions after I thought we had agreed a plan!

Thanks in advance. xx
