At 42, do these fertility results suggest I still have a chance?

[Nat2233]

Age: 42

• AMH: 10.2 is this good for my age
• AFC: 11 can produce eggs but only 11
• Womb: capable
• Sperm: manageable with ICSI

I think I have no chance at this?

I dont know what AFC is, but from the rest I think you have a good change 😊

The AMH is high for your age but it only shows quantity not quality of eggs which as I'm sure you've researched, decline significantly after 40. Studies vary but it's often less than 10% live birth rate at 42. You might need multiple cycles to increase your chances. You'd get more eggs with ivf so more likely to get a genetically normal egg but it really comes down to time and money as there's a high chance you'd need multiple cycles to increase the success rate. If I had both, I'd go for a cycle of ivf and see what happens!

I had very similar AMH and AFC at 38 when I did 2 IVF egg collections, I got 8 and 9 eggs respectively. As PP says unfortunately as you get older the likelihood of embryos being euploid (genetically normal) declines, so unfortunately risk of miscarriage or no pregnancy increases. If you do go ahead with IVF I'd say pgta testing embryos would be a good idea, it's not cheap but at least you know anything you're transferring has a reasonable shot

@Nat2233 yes you have a chance but the time to start is right now. Look up 3 cycle packages.

Absilutely no way of knowing until you try. So many unknowns besides the metrics. I started when I was 39 and had absolutely perfect numbers and even slightly higher for someone of my age which made me so optimistc and it took 4ivf attemps to have a child and numerous miscarriages. I know a woman who was 43 and had a success at the first try. Don't wait much longer is my only advice.
