In a recent Ask The Egg Whisperer, Barbara from Cyprus sent in a question as she weights the options of IVF. Here's what she asked, "I am 37 years old and I have a 5 year old boy. For the last 1 year we have been trying to get pregnant for a second child. I tried to follow your TUSHY Method and I think I got most of it done. I had polyps removed, AMH is 1.92, FSH 10.2, thyroid is normal, sperm is very good, tubes are open. My doctor is suggesting to do IVF without trying IUI first because of my low AMH and my age. However, I am very reluctant and scared to try IVF as I feel that maybe there is something I can "fix" and conceive naturally. Am I being unreasonable? Should I just bite the bullet and do it or do you suggest anything else I could do or test before IVF?" This is such a great question, and I totally get it. If I could help every single person get pregnant without IVF, I would do it. My guess is that your doctors don't want you to waste your precious time. They don't want to take your fertility for granted and they want to move forward with the healthy exit you have at the age of 37, it's harder to get pregnant with a healthy egg. However, given your history, you probably still have a really good chance of having a healthy pregnancy and could IUI work with you. But, it might be more efficient to go right to IVF first. And that's something that I recommend to everyone who is 37 and above. However, if your gut is telling you to consider IUI first, just do one or two rounds of it. If it doesn't work, then you can go to IVF. Make sure that you share your priorities with your doctor and that they also understand those priorities.
