mixed emotions before next IVF cycle

After a prolonged break for endo surgery and then our naturally conceived ectopic pregnancy loss and further surgery, we are finally back on the IVF horse. So I’m sorry been AWOL from here a while. I found some useful books and podcasts on baby loss which were helpful for the emotional healing

My AMH has dropped further to 4.9pmol/l which worries me. I’ve had poor response in all my cycles getting 1-4 eggs, and we’ve had a total of 6 failed fresh and frozen transfer cycles.

This time we are doing oestrogen priming and using Pergoveris and double trigger. We are hoping to use PGTA and freeze all for first time too if we get enough.

I’m feeling super nervous on one hand that the change in protocol may make no difference or give us a worse response. But a little hopeful that the endo surgery will have helped with our recurrent implantation failure and maybe even my ovarian response.

It’s hard doing a cycle around the time we’d be due our baby if we hadn’t suffered a loss too, I don’t know how others have coped with this.

Hope you’re all having a good day xx
