Starting the IVF journey

It's been quite a journey already. Fell pregnant relatively quickly in 2018, then sadly lost my son at 14 hours old. Then struggled to conceive again, finally diagnosed with Stage 4 endometriosis. Had a fairly extensive laparoscopy in March. Now about to embark on IVF, but had more blows in the form of a new cyst on the right ovary and an AMH of 7.2.

Everything I read is convincing me that the odds of the IVF working are low yet here I am, about to try it anyway.

Has anyone got any positive stories to turn my mindset around?

I'm sorry for your loss OP 💐

There are lots of factors which affect success - main one being age? But I know loads of people who have had it work first time x

Thank you for the reply. Age is definitely something on my side (33 next week) with low AMH and endo not being on my side.

I've got to start taking vitamin D, folic acid, coenzyme Q10 and omega 3 because that may help apparently.
