After nearly 7 months, 1 failed IUI, 1 surprise pregnancy, 1 crushing miscarriage, and one stubborn cyst - I am doing my IVF cycle!!!
Today was my cd2 (cycle day 2) monitoring. I have 10 antral follicles (beginnings of follicles) which is very good for someone with highFSH. I still have one stubborn cyst, but it's getting smaller and isn't producing estrogen. My E2 (estrogen) level is 40, my FSH is 16.9. The FSH has gone up a bit since it was last measured in January. I guess I have to stop fooling myself that I am somehow NOT in diminished ovarian reserve status. Today's FSH confirms that I am. How weird to be only 33 and running out of eggs.
Anyway, I'm going to focus on my antral count and hope that the bcp (birth control pills) do a good job of shrinking the cyst with out over-suppressing the ovaries. Only time will tell I guess.

WOW! That's great that you are a "go" for the IVF. Hopefully, the first time will be a charm! :)
Yay! I'm happy you have been given the o.k. to start the IVF process. I hope and pray that this works for you!
thanks ladies! I hope it works too. I'm so torn between being confident it's going to work and scared that it might not.
My prayers and best thoughts are with you, my dear. I always wanted to be a cheerleader and now I can be! Love, Mom A
