Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

Menopause occurs when your body oestrogen falls becomes nill almost. So by providing external oestrogen and progesteron again periods can be induced. Which are given to you .

But good and healthy eggs can't be produced. So its good you are going for donor egg.

The chances to conceive are less because after menopause uterus become small and lining become thin, which is not good for implantation. If with progynova and primolut your endometrium thickness increase upto 11mm or more then its good. Your infertility treatment may help you to become pregnant.

Hope I have been helpful.

Regards
Dr. Ashish Verma
