Feeling Devestated, First IVF cycle ended with one abnormal egg – any success stories?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice and hopefully a few success stories.

I’m 37 with a low AMH (0.4) and have just completed my first NHS IVF/ICSI cycle. I started with around 6 follicles, but only 1 egg was retrieved. Unfortunately, the embryologist said it was an abnormal egg, so the cycle ended before embryo transfer. My clinic has said I may still be eligible for another NHS-funded cycle.

I’m feeling quite disheartened and upset as no kids and wondering if anyone has been through something similar and gone on to have success with a second cycle. Did your clinic change your medication or protocol? Were you able to retrieve more eggs the next time? Any supplements, diet changes etc.

I have been taking Folic Acid, Vitamin D, Coq10

I’d really appreciate hearing any experiences or advice. Thank you so much.
