Gonal F Vs Menopur. Very low AMH

[PenpalLdn]

Hi 👋🏻

I have finally chosen my clinic, and will start a cycle in the next month or two. I'm going to be doing PGT-A due to my previous miscarriages, if I have any embryos. My issue is I have very low AMH (< 2 pmol/l). I do get pregnant but have miscarried all 3 last year. So I have no idea what this journey will bring me.

Has anyone had success with either of the above medications and low AMH? My understanding is they're very similar. Is one cheaper, less heavy on the body than the other? I was advised short protocol.

Thank you!

I have very low AMH too, have done 2 cycles - one was short protocol and one was long. One I used Reckoville and the other I used Menopur.

They both ended up with one embryo. First one was transferred but failed, and I’m having the second transferred today 🤞

I don’t think there’s one drug or protocol that is best, if there were then everyone would be doing the same one. I think it’s more a case of people responding better or worse to differnt drugs and protocols as we’re all individual. Also found different doctors seem to have personal preferences for drugs and approach.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Exactly I think they're very similar and the doctors can try different ones over time to optimize, but there isn't anything known ahead of time. I wish you best of luck for the transfer today 💚 and hope the tww goes as smoothly as can be. If you ever need to talk, I'm around x
