Hi friends. I’m new here. So I recently underwent fertility testing and found out my AMH is 0.24 and estradiol is 265 ( should be less than 50). My doc said id have an extremely hard time getting pregnant or egg retrieval. Anyone experience this? I feel totally hopeless :(

Mine is .2 my specialist said it would make egg retrieval unlikely to work for IVF, but that it doesn’t mean you automatically have more trouble conceiving naturally. As long as you are still ovulating the egg a month. My plan is to try naturally or with IUI. If that doesn’t work I’ll likely go the adoption route.

Always get a 2nd opinion. Different clinics have different capabilities and specialisms

How old are you? Agree that IUI might be a better option for you. Even with low AMH you can still ovulate one egg a month. As for high estradiol, that’s very manageable with hormone treatment. Talk to your RE (or a new one) about medicated IUI. Letrozole and IUI might be a good path for you.

I’m 36

Crazy ethics issue. Client 1 has VPO against man who later becomes Client 2. This is the 4th VPO this year, previous ones dismissed.

In the meantime, State has filed rape charges against man who becomes Client 2 and A/B charges against Client 1. Client 1 also files for divorce.

Clients reconcile (which is how they both end up clients...) and want VPO dismissed, divorce dismissed, and criminal charges dismissed.

DHS gets involved and want to remove the child from Client 1's custody. (1/2)
