When will you start the down reg? Dhea is still officially unproven so they would not necessarily mention it to you. However you could ask them. Usually it is recommended to take for 3 months before treatment. It is supposed to make the eggs stronger / better. Have you had any follicle counts? Wishing you all the very best.

I'm a bit older than you (I'm 42) but if my pregnancy holds I'm going to be a single mum. Pm me if you want to swap details and stay in touch.

Sounds good, I don’t have any fertility issues that I know of, just dating someone ridiculously older than me who doesn’t want kids. I don’t want to go down the whole dating thing as basically do not want a man, or father, plus it takes too long to find Mr Right. Anyway I have him but I respect his choice, he has been there done that, Wanna do it on my own.... and he supports me, but he won’t play a father, more uncle.... lol tad mad I know. How do we send private messages to someone? xxxxx
