over 40 and very low AMH?

Question

Hi all. My AMH is in the "very low" range. I'd love to hear from people who were able to get pregnant with very low AMH after 40--naturally, IUI, IVF, whichever. Today is a hard day, and I could use some hope. Thanks!

Answer

Ivf is costly but worth it. My amh at 41 and 2 months is .58. I have done two rounds of ivf freezing my embryos to allow for genetic testing. I just did a retrieval two weeks ago- 9 eggs, 6 fertilized, 3 made 5 day blast . I awaiting genetics on these. I have 2 euploid embryos frozen from a cycle in March 2017. I start embryo transfer process in 2 weeks.

I also frozen 28 eggs at late 39 when my amh was 1.4. A long story but as I suspected 18 months ago, my husband has severely low sperm count but refused to get tested until recently due to his pride. So I think I could have gotten pg naturally awhile back had my spouse had a normal count, things still have hope at 41 with a low amh...

Answer

I am not pregnant yet, but I was able to raise my AMH in four months. I was tested in January by my OB and it came back .67. I started acupuncture and took supplements (prenatal, folic acid, coQ10, maca, royal jelly, and evening primrose oil). I turned 41 in April and had my AMH rechecked at the first of the month. I brought it up to .97! Here's hoping that was the boost we needed.

My AMH has been tested in the abysmal range, haha. It's seriously almost undetectable...0.06, 0.04, then 0.06 ng/L. I got pregnant in February. I miscarried but it did happen! I have a polyp in my uterus, which may have caused the miscarriage (or more likely could have been a chromosomal issue) that I'm having removed Friday then once I have a period...it's on like Donkey Kong for us. We'd been trying for about a year and a half and got things figured out how to get me pregnant. I'm 43, by the way. I'll be 44 in November. Totally abysmal AMH and still got pregnant!
