Heart breaking

I had my meeting after my 2nd treatment failed. My AMH had dropped further and my consultant said 'your cookie jar is nearly empty'. My tears kept running. My heart hurt without crying out.
He thought I had some kind of procedure as he expected me to have a better results.
He told us that our 3rd treatment successful rate will be around 23%. We are still going to go for our 3rd. 23% is better than nothing. We waiting for our IFR (Individual Funding Request).

We have agree to counselling as I started getting more worry about our relationship. I am 38 years old and my husband is 39 years old. We been together for 10 years. We both have no children and he is my 1st love, his 1st when his was 16 so I technically am not but he said I am.
Like everyone, we dream and talk about the future. But that all shatter. In fact it hurt as I type this out. Over the years you see and hear story of how a partner can change when what we once wish to achieve might not be possible.

Please give me the encouragement as I face my next challenge in life.❤

Sorry to hear that
You need to be strong and think of options because there are options- donor eggs or adoption. I know it's better to be 100% yours but sometimes it's just not working this way.

@SunnyTiger that was somewhat insensitive of your consultant to use that analogy. Not sure what you're AMH is but it is possible to have success with low AMH both through IVF and natural pregnancy, as it pony takes one egg. You haven't mentioned other medical concerns so I understand AMH is the main one from your post
