37 not married no kids feeling low

[Foresthealing]

Hey peeps - I’m in a happy healthy relationship of 1.5 years so not long I know but my clock is ticking and I’m feeling impatient. I love my partner and we’ve spoken about marriage and kids but I’m older than him and obviously it is more on my mind than his. For him at 30 it’s not so much of a rush but for me I’m feeling the pinch.

I stopped myself for banging on about it but I feel it inside. Has anyone else been in this position?

he’s told me to be patient as it will all come but the internal stress I feel is overwhelming

I might be wrong, but I think AMH is a great indicator of ovarian reserves (i.e. number of eggs), but not necessarily the quality of eggs.

Its hard news but don't let that stop you TTC naturally while you consider your options. You never know x

You're right ♥️ he said he's open to trying so I'm grateful for that. I have cried so much the last 24 hours.

I was told on my last fertility test it was all low and I needed to lose weight. I've lost weight and now it's lower 😞 lets see though! I just need to try

Yes when I had similar news my research said that AMH is not a reliable indicator as to whether you can conceive naturally or not but rather how they calculate meds for IVF.

A lot of women have babies without ever realising they had low AMH, equally there are women with perfect AMH who still need IVF.

If you’ve not yet tried without IVF try not to stress too much. Plenty of women with low AMH release a perfectly good egg each month. You might find you fall pregnant pretty quickly! AMH is only really relevant to how many eggs you are likely to get if you do IVF.

You’re Right! We going to try IVF as it’s not happening naturally. At the moment the cost side is the only
hold back as we’re buying a house. So trying naturally in the meantime.
