I have DOR and have done 5 rounds of IVF. What can I do to increase my chances of pregnancy? (Ask the Egg Whisperer)
Update: 2021-06-13
Description
Jennifer sent in a great question to "Ask the Egg Whisperer." She is 38, and from Seattle. Here's what she wrote," Hi Fertility Queen, you are the BEST!
I'm 38 years old & diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. I've been through 5 rounds of IVF and have 2 5AA frozen embryos right now.
My husband and I want 2 kids therefore tried to bank another embryo but the 5th round failed therefore we are moving on to a FET.
I did a mock transfer and the BCL6 from the Receptiva came back positive therefore we are doing 2 Depot Lupron shots a month apart prior to the real transfer. My environment is good (healthy eating, lots of exercise, limited toxins in our beauty and cleaning products, great therapist). I'm taking a Prenatal with folate and DHA, Vitamin D, & Vitamin E.
Are there any other supplements I should take?
I've heard NAC may be good for endometriosis. Is there anything else I can do to prepare for this transfer?
I am willing to do whatever it takes to help my pregnancy chances.
Thank you so much!"
The brief answer for Jennifer is this:
1. Have you done the ERA test on the two embryos you have?
2. Do you have symptoms of endometriosis? Consider the ReceptivaDX test, as it can determine if you might have silent endometriosis.
3. What other medications does your doctor have you on in addition to Depot?
