ivf egg number and fertilisation

My dear, it had nothing to do with you. am on my 2nd ivf, today was my ER. However my last circle, I had 20 eggs, only 11 fertilized and at the end of the day I ended up with just 2. I had to wait almost 2montha too for an FET as I overstimulated. It had nothing to do with you at all. Most times your first IVF circle ia often experienmential had the DR dont have viable data as to how you personally will respond to the stim drugs. After thia first one they always have better data to qork with. This time I was on less meds and came out with more eggs at 27. (Though initially Doc told me less meds may mean less eggs). Look at it this way at the end of the day we need just 1 or maybe 2 of the whole lot to get pregnant. I know that dissaponting feeling too, I was really mad the last time too when I ended up with 2 and had to wait weeks on end for an FET. The good thing is both eggs are AA so just pray whatever the outcome you have high grade eggs. It might alao help to know that the labs are picky about the eggs, they only want to keep the highest quality, so it does not mean the discarded ones are so not good, they juat believe the selected ones stand a better chance. Wiahing you all of Goda best with your circle dear. Please take lota of liquid and gatrode heloa too.

It's nothing that you did. I've heard that with PCOS it's not unusual to retrieve a large amount, but only have a smaller percentage that are mature/fertilized. Hang in there and good luck!

Please don't feel bad. I have heard this can be quite normal. My husband and I tried for three years and found out we could only conceive through icsi. I have PCOS too. They retrieved 13 eggs from me but the next day only six fertilised and I know the feeling of devastation when you hear that number drop. Remember it only takes one to make your dreams come true! I had to wait too. But try to stay positive as much as you can. We had two embryos that made it to day 5 (1 day five, 1 day 6) They where frozen and we put them back in on the 17th. Today I found out I am pregnant. You haven't done anything wrong and all this will be worth it when you get your BFP! Feel free to message me anytime. xx

My doctor added human growth hormone to my protocol ebdsuce of my diminished egg reserve I started with ten and dripped to 2 literally perfect 6AA eggs we just transferred one last week

We are just in the consultation phase of IVF at the moment - I also have PCOS - and it's something that's been playing on my mind. Are our eggs more likely to be poor quality? Is there something we can do to improve them? Let's hope someone helps us!xx
