Had ec this morning. Out of 4 follicles they found one lousy stupid abnormal egg and apparently its oval shaped.

End of our ivf journey.

Feeling depressed and fed up. Vant believe I was stupid enough to think this attempt would be successful.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. I went through the same a couple of weeks ago...I had one immature egg too out of four follicles. It's just not fair is it???

Go for your follow up and see what they can do for you.

Thinking of you x

Sorry to hear this. I was told every round you learn something more, so I know it is so not ideal to hear your news but it does mean the doctors will hopefully be able to see your issue and from this they can adapt the next round to help address. I had low response and just transferred a mosaic the chances are low but we have to try.

I’m so sorry. It’s devastating and cruel to go through this. I’ve had 2 cancelled cycles due to poor follicle growth so I get it. It’s not stupid to be hopeful and try everything possible. Sending you lots of love xxx

I’m so sorry to hear this - it’s such a tough journey. In Feb I had 19 eggs collected and only 1 fertilised abnormally and had to be destroyed. Nothing from 19 eggs we were so upset. Like others have said it can teach them a lot and it may help to look at your protocol. Wishing you lots of luck xx

Tried a different protocol this time as didn't respond to burselin in june of this year and cycle got abandoned. Tried antagonic this time and resulted in one stupid egg.

At least I know I'll never be a mum now and I can focus on my career instead.

Wishing luck to anyone going through ivf treatment. Xxx

Oh I’m so sorry Sambab, it honestly is such a cruel experience. Don’t give up, there’s other options. Sending you lots of love

You still have options, I wouldn’t give up yet....how do you feel having another round? Or going to donor eggs? X

Sambab in reply toScarlett13

If I could afford it I would have another attempt with egg donation but it's such a lot and a year waiting list. Think I'm going to look at adoption process and see what the year brings.

Thank you to everyone for the kind words. X

Sorry to hear this news it’s devastating isn’t it , I honestly didn’t ever think our first attempt wouldn’t work honestly so it scared and upset the life out of me. I just felt so down hearted and gutted. Get ready for your review and follow up, sorry to hear again hun. There’s so many options - DE and other avenues. Be kind to yourself xx
