A little hope for my very low AMHers

[HJF84]

Hi all

I know how much positive stories lift me when I'm feeling down, so I thought I'd share one of mine - finally!

After 18 months of TTC, I had a round of blood tests at a fertility clinic. The only issue they found was my very low AMH - 2.9 pmo/l. This was devastating to me. We were advised to go straight to IVF, which we did, but at another clinic. We did four rounds there, with no success.

I'm now starting from scratch at a new clinic, two and a half years after we started on our IVF journey. And they want to redo some bloods, including AMH. So I've spent all day worrying about it. After two and a half years, how much will it have dropped by?

Well the answer is it has doubled! I've gone from 2.9 pmo/l at 34 to 5.62 pmo/l at 36 and a half.

I'm totally over the moon! I've gone from the very low category to just the low and feeling fab for it! Maybe it's the vitamin D someone told me to take? Who knows? And I haven't taken DHEA for any of my cycles.

So to my very low and low AMH level ladies. There is hope!

This is amazing!! Well done!! Is the only thing you did differently taking vitamin d? X

@Raggity19 I've done quite a few things, but nothing specifically to increase my AMH. I heard that AMH only goes down, not up! Although I've since read reports that it can fluctuate. Maybe my last reading was at the lower end of the spectrum! Who knows?

I was already taking a run of the mill pregnancy supplement when I did my first test. So here's everything I've done that could impact it, although nothing was to increase AMH, just help with overall fertility.
Vitamin d spray supplement
Co-10 and then later switched to ubiquonol.
Magnesium supplement
Zinc supplement
Royal Jelly supplement
Bee pollen supplement
I started eating organic veg
I started yoga at the beginning of lockdown - I try for once a day
I stopped eating dairy. I haven't had milk since my teens as it aggravates my eczema and was advised to cut back on all dairy for my skin, so maybe this could have helped.

I think it's all a bit of a guessing game. Will have to keep it all up now.

@HJF84 oh wow, thanks for sharing! Good luck with everything. X

@HJF84 that's interesting, I think I will definitely give the spray a try. What dose of royal jelly did you take? Have been thinking about trying it but can't find consistent dosage advice online

@TTC2016 I bought 750mg tablets from Amazon. I took two a day, one in the morning and one in the evening.
