need some serious advice?

Iam a TTC Mom for past three years. This year I was diagnosed with premature ovarian failure. We went to ivf. Although our first attempt resulted in a MC. The second one ending with no viable embryos. The second round was the worst. We arrived at the Clinic and got to know that there aren’t any embryos to transfer. We were in a state of shock. The ivf drugs which seriously mess up with your hormones. You can’t trust yourself as you are not in a position to take the right decision. My husband wants to go for the third attempt. I am confused and afraid that the result might be same. Please help. Would like to hear some success stories. To lift up my spirits, I need to stay positive.

Were you diagnosed with POF before the IVF or just got to know about it recently? What's your last AMH and what's your current age? How regular were your AF? I'm not a professional but even since my struggles I've been digging a lot on infertility and IVF - gathered some copious knowledge. If you're approaching POF it's good to go with round 3 if it's already a POF (the AMH level will define that though) chances are very thin that it will work. Basically, you're not ovulating and it's depletion of your egg reserves so the stimulants or even down reg can't help you much. The eggs forced out will not be of good quality either and that's why there's no embryo in the previous round. There's always a scope for a miracle in pregnancy but since not everyone is entitled to it - it's best to consider what's rationally possible. I know you wanted to hear success stories but I thought knowing the odds will help you decide better. Though it's not the end of the world. Thanks to the latest breakthroughs in medical science it's possible to rejuvenate your ovaries clinically even after natural menopause - called ovarian rejuvenation process. Hope you find what's best for you and be able to have your own bundle of joy soon. Sending lot's of love and good luck!

Oh, dear. I'm sorry for the miscarriage you've gone through. I can't imagine the pain and grief you suffered I willingly share my journey to make your spirits up. I'm a ripe age woman with some fertility issues, though leading us to ivf. After years of trying they diagnosed me on luteal phase deffect. dh's swimmers were/are perfect. So we applied for help in a fertility clinic in Ukraine. They gave us only 10% conceiving with oe, that's why we moved onto egg donation. It feels like we didn't want waste time putting hopes in those 10%. Furthermore this is the money matter. You know, no extra ££ to be spent for nothing.

Our first try ended in bfn. They found out the reasons, made some improvements to the treatment plan. Shot#2 - placed back 2 nice 5-day blasts and they both made home. I conceived our beautiful twins and carried them up to the due date. Thankfully the pregnancy went smoothly for us, though we were aware of all possible risks.

I know how hard each failure could be. But if you feel like you can do this next shot - please do. We never know how many shots it will take us to conceive. Noone knows. But we don't have right to stop and give up.

Currently we're passing our next round ivf for a sibling. We have to pass this journey once more. But at least we trust the place we are with. Please do keep updated. Wish you all the best xx

I'm afraid I can't advise much as for ivf. My case is totally different. We went surrogacy route. But judging from what you've written I'd give it the 3rd try. How is your dr feeling about this? I believe you do have chances with your proven fertility, so maybe you'll still have that vible healthy lovely egg to go on with. Praying for you,love, keep on posting x
