Thread: High FSH now

Thanks so much, Shawna; I had no idea you were in a clinical trial!? But it sounds like it wasn't really worth it in the end.? I'm really just interested in testing for any immunologic factors since I had extended endo removed prior to my first IVF cycle, and I'm?wondering if FET #1 failed b/c of toxins from endo growing back.? I just want to leave no stone unturned and it never?hurts to have a new set of eyes going over?my...

Hey Diane, We actually used SIRM Las Vegas and traveled back and forth from NY to LV twice! We didn't have insurance coverage and were accepted into a clinical trial they were doing about egg freezing. The staff was very unprofessional, disorganized, and despite it being "free" it came out to about the same as doing a local cycle after we paid for travel and lodging! Unfortunatly, that cycle resulted in one embryo to...

Hi Diana- I am glad to hear you are getting settled and found a good RE. That is really half the battle! As for FSH, I can sympathize. I tested with high FSH at age 32, which was quite a shock for me. Mine tested initially at 14.6 then went down to 10.4 several months later. I have not had mine tested since Madeline was born, but will have it tested again once my period returns, after I stop nursing. My experience with high FSH was...

Glad you have found an RE you like!? Sorry for the high FSH scare.? I know that I failed my test?at age 34?(I think 10.5).? While my RE never did a follicle count, I did only have 7 eggs retrieved; however, it only takes 1 and mine resulted in my DD.? I then got pg on my own when she was 9 mths.? So, my opinion on the FSH is that it is not a definate predictor of your fertility.? Your level was not extremely high either so I won't be...

Hi Diana. Glad to hear that you are settled and that you found a good RE!! Sorry to hear that you decided to do an FSH for fun and got bad news. I know how this feels! I got an FSH of 7, then ten months later 10.1, then 10.4 another cycle later. All this at the age of 32! Freaked me out and made me very sad! All of my cycles were after my higher FSH number. I still got 11 eggs, 8 were mature, 8 made it to blast, one gave me my son via FET, 3...

Hi Diana, Glad to hear you are settled. No, they are not big on the "natural" foods there, but they do have some good food. Try Salsalito's or Perrico's if you haven't already. I don't remember what my FSH was, but I do remember not having good "quality" nor that many either time. None left over either. With the 2nd I was told mine?look like they came from a?40 yr old. I was 28 at that time.?Let me know...
