Hi Kazz777. Just hoping this works for you, as it is often used when ovaries don't respond well with stimulation. Seems to give them a boost. Usually using low soluble aspirin and anti coagulant treatment is not recommended while using the gel. Fingers crossed. Diane

This is really interesting and following Diane's comment, I read the research on the use of the gel in those that are poor responders to IVF cycles, I am one of those people. Although they used a small study sample (and recommend a larger study) overall, the testosterone gel improved the number and quality of oocytes as well as increasing the number and quality of embryos and consequently the fertility rate. Thank you ladies xx
