Hi, I'm 38 with endometriosis and low ovarian reserve, low AMH (0.4) and low follicle count (scan had one follicle on one and two on the other). Partner has low motility and low sperm count.

We have been offered IVF with 4 options in our area;

Chelsea and Westminster Hospital
Guy's Hospital
Kingston Hospital NHS Foundation Hospital
St.Helier Hospital

Does anyone have any experience with IVF at these clinics or advice in choosing your clinic?

Hi @MargotChateau - I think you're in a good position as these clinics are all well established and regarded as far as I know. I'd check out the HFEA website to look at their success rates. You might also want to consider which is easiest to travel to - during stims you might be going every other day for scans/bloods. Good luck!

Hi @MargotChateau

I think your in a good position if you can get NHS funding at the above as they are all good clinics. Good Luck.

I am in a similar position with a low AMH of 0.4. I am looking abroad as I can't afford UK prices but many recommend donor eggs as I am 41 :( but I want to try with my own eggs so lots of research ahead of me.

Hey, check your options on the global clinic ranking website. They send specialists in order to check, accredit and rank them.

Good luck!
