In a recent Ask The Egg Whisperer, Jenny wrote in and she said this: "I'm 37. Last February, I had an egg freezing consult. During the ultrasound, the doctor counted 4 and 5 follicles in each of my ovaries and he said everything looked normal. Ten months later, my AMH is 0.27 ng/ml, which scares me so much. Twelve months later, I started injections for egg freezing and after 6 days of shots, the doctor couldn't find follicles in my ovaries.

Am I in menopause? Is it possible for me to produce eggs again?Should I continue to try egg freezing?"

Here's what I have to share about this question: You've spent basically the last four months preparing for an egg freeze and you still haven't frozen your eggs, which is not your fault. You're listening to your doctor's advice, and it sounds like it's pretty sound advice because they're really trying to prepare you for an egg freeze and not waste your time.

When your AMH is 0.27, we're looking at getting about two to three eggs. What you're sharing with me is they can't see any follicles. My thought process is this: let's stop all the medications. See what happens naturally. Go back and get seen in a week and see what you learn. Be sure to check your FSH, estradiol, and repeat your AMH.

And I wish it was as easy as that. I know this is hard stuff. I know it is heartbreaking. It causes you to make you feel like you should lose all hope. But the answer is, it sounds like you still might have an egg left and I want you to do everything you can to preserve it if that's important to you.

If you can't, don't look back with any regrets. You can't change the past, you can only move forward excited about your future like I am for you. You're going to be a mother one way or another, and it's okay if it's not with your own DNA.I know it's hard to hear, but I can tell you, once you get older, you're going to look back and say, ah, that Dr. Aimee knew what she was talking about.

Life's too short. If you want to be a parent, please just do whatever you can to do exactly that. It's so worth it, especially in today's world to give another little human love and make our society better.
