Does Failing Ovulatory Reserve Indicate Infertility?
Dr Chetna I am 42 and I have just been told - 2 hours ago - that my AMH is L 9.4 (14-30) suggestive of failing ovulatory reserve: does it mean that I am infertile, or do I still stand a chance to have my own baby without egg donor? My appointment with the gynecologist is in 3 weeks, I cannot wait to know until then, my GP did not wish to reply to my question, I had two terminations in my life for very personal reasons, I had to choose this uncomfortable option, my irin level is also usually very or too low since I was a teenager. Please reply ASAP. many thanks Maria

WELCOME TO HCM
YOU CAN TRY IVF WITH HIGHER DOSE OF ONJECTION TO DEVELOPE ENOUGH FOLLICLES.
IF IT FAILS THEN OVUM DONATION IS THE OPTION TO CONCEIVE.
SINCE YOUR AGE IS 42 THE QUALITY OF EGG WILL BE LOW AND MAY BE RESULT IN UNSUCCESSFUL PREGNANCY.BETTER GO FOR OVUM DONATION.
