    "I may not have a lot of eggs left but I still have eggs left."
    THIS. So tired of them giving up on us on our behalf. Grateful for the doctors that do all they can with the eggs we have left and have that hope for us while we do what we can. Thank you for giving me hope! I will update in the Facebook group what my next steps are but I'm too will be a medical tourist thanks to learning from you. 😊

      Yes I wish doctors would give our eggs a chance. A lot of them seem to care about their success rates and turn women with low AMH away which is sad, because doctors should care for the ones who are in the most dire situations first IMO.
      Yes!! Please update on your progress. I am rooting for you always. Sending love. 💖

    hi Hellynn! Thank you for sharing your experience and journey with everyone, I hope it did help you emotionally! I can understand that feeling after I had my second failed IVF cycle a few months ago... I understand the isolating feeling so much. I took a break and I used the time to "heal" by trying to plan my next steps. And this lead me to your video! Thank you again for sharing!

    Hi Hellyn, thanks for sharing your story. I am 38 and have had 2 failed IUIs and 3 failed IVFs so far. We have 1 embryo left and staying positive and considering our options at the same time if things go the unexpected way. We are based in Canada and are also quite concerned about the high costs of doing another IVF cycle here. So, I am considering getting this treatment abroad, but worried about how we’ll manage the sperm part. Will my husband have to travel each month as well? Or is there a way to collect sperm samples and transport those abroad?

    • @hellynn_j
      @hellynn_j  11 місяців тому

      Hi there, thanks for reaching out! I wish you the best on your last embryo but its very smart of you to plan ahead. My husband came and froze his sperm and that went a long ways. One freeze session results in typically 4-5 egg retrieval cycles at my hospital. Your husband just needs to come in the beginning and freeze.
      Where are you planning to get it done?

      ​@@hellynn_jthank you for sharing your story and journey to a baby. I am 29 and got recently diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve and my AMH is 0.034. Me and my husband have been actively trying to get pregnant for a year and 5 months now. We got successfully pregnant for the first time in middle of August but sadly we lost that baby at 4 weeks and 5 days in September 😭😭💔. Since then it is very difficult to get pregnant naturally despite being everyday tryers. And my husband is Korean and I am American foreigner. We so desperatly wants a baby together. Especially a biological one. I got told that my ovarian age is 50 and that I basically have almost 0 eggs left and that I will never succeed in getting pregnant naturally and that the only chance to get pregnant is by ivf with donor eggs and that I am almost in menopause which left me extremely distressed and heart broken. I felt so doomed and cursed. And I am still struggling to accept this fact. I got told this information by a fertility clinic in Busan 😢. So now we are going to do ivf with a clinic in Seoul that is specialized in ivf with diminished ovarian reserve and low amh. We will first meet the specialist to see if he can help us getting a baby that we are so longing for ❤
      What's the name of your clinic in Korea and what medicines did you use during ivf to get eggs and one beautiful embryo and what protocol did they put you on? ❤
