I would just transfer 2 at a time.<br /><br />I would also do a fresh IVF first if your insurance agrees. You are hitting that 35 mark, so might as well get those last good eggs while you have the chance. <br /><br />It's really hard to know what to do, but whatever you choose, it will be the right decision for you. You know your circumstances better than anyone, so you will ultimately make the right decision based on that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612900176796234951.post-79580965784087221382016-01-19T12:09:10.987-05:002016-01-19T12:09:10.987-05:00These decisions are so hard! Pray about it and the...These decisions are so hard! Pray about it and then follow your prayerful intuition. Go to St Pat's and pray (God probably isn't against IVF even if some in the Catholic Church who like to judge are). Or say the rosary, very meditative and centering. Whatever decision you make after prayer and reflection and listening to God/your heart/intuition...you just can't regret those decisions so much later if you believe God was leading you to make them. Oh and if your doctor doesn't endorse the three month prep maybe don't do it? Sounds tough, even more difficult than the stim drugs themselves which I hated though I had the highest doses.

Our egg donor is only 25 and I had 2 miscarriages with embryos from her eggs. After doing PGS, one of 3 frosties was abnormal. However, I also miscarried the 3 PGS normal ones too.Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09558554593486447821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612900176796234951.post-90030504110337113572016-01-17T20:14:07.468-05:002016-01-17T20:14:07.468-05:00I agree.

We did PGS on our remaining frozen embryos and they had to be re- vertrified. I had chemicals with all of them. From my experience, I think the refreeze does damage them even though they thawed out fine. Best of luck whatever you decide!

You have a fallback option if things don't turn out how you want. And, your eggs aren't 50% crap- they just are a little older (in 35 too and like to stay positive). Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
