I am thinking about DE. but it is very expensive and risky. I don't know what to do. I spoke with my doctor's nurse and she refer me to the DE nurse. I am going set an appointment for tomorrow. I just have to collect the thoughts and questions.

I too have FSH over 100 and just was dx with POF at age 34. I was told I was never going to get my period again and I did this month
? I had only 1 follicle and wow that was nice to hear ED is not the only way to have a child. FSH levels can change mostly if you are under 40. I have heard of success stories! Goodluck and keep the faith!

Hello, I'm new here. I just got activated today.
I have never met anyone with POF. I was diagnosed 5 years ago at age 16. My doctors didn't mince words. "You will never have a child." I haven't gone back since I turned 18, and I'm wondering what's up. I never was told about ED or anything. Sigh- what do you mean by "FSH can change if you're under 40"? |

If you really have POF, DE are a wonderful option. My FSH was 20 at 35 y/o and I have to use DE. If your uterus is normal, you can still experience pg and childbirth and your DH can be a father. There is still hope for you to have a child. Don't give up yet. Last edited by notreallyme; 08-06-2007 at 07:30 AM. |
