Hi All, I’m new here. I’m 34 from North West England and my partner and I currently have no children. We started our fertility journey just over a year ago. Initial tests looked positive as no issues could be detected and I had an AMH of 30.9 and a AFC of 20. 10 follicles in each ovary. The doctor said I was a good candidate for IUI. We did three rounds with no success. My AMH was taken again and it had dropped to 22.9. My doctor said this wasn’t something to be too concerned about. So we did another three rounds of IUI, which again failed. I had my AMH and AFC done again in the last few weeks and it’s dropped again to 12.7 and my AFC this month was 6, five on my right ovary, 1 on my left. My doctor had told me that my chances are now greatly diminished. I was devastated by this, especially as no reason could be given other than that I’m ‘unlucky’. It made me feel ill advised especially after the first round of IUIs. As such I’ve moved away from the clinic I was using in the UK and I’m beginning treatment with New Life in Greece. Would be great to hear from anyone who has experience having IVF abroad and if anyone has heard of drops in AMH and AFC similar to mine as I’m still concerned there is an underlying cause yet to be identified.
