Hello Molsykins,

Firstly, I am sorry to hear about your husband and I hope he is recovering well. It is good that they were able to freeze sperm, so you can try for siblings.

Secondly, I am not downing what your clinic said, but sometimes different clinics have different levels of acceptance. With FSH my clinic like it to be under 10, but I have heard of some who like it to be under 15. Yours are obviously just very cautious liking it to be under 7. I am not an expert, but I would say your FSH is fine just now, besides it isn't really accurate to judge it on one test alone. Your AMH does put you in the low fertility bracket, but just wanted to share that mine was 2 and I had an FSH of 13, which lowered to 10 on another test and a host of other issues, but my daughter has just turned 1, same age as your LO. So, don't give up hope - miracles do and can happen to you too!

Hope that helps and wishing you well on your journey. Keep us updated on your treatments. Xxx

Hello

I would be careful about trying to interpret AMH results as based on what I know I would say five would be considered low (sorry not trying to scare you). I know there is more than one scale used to measure this though so it might be worth trying to find out how it's been calculated before you start getting upset and Googling yourself into a stress (sorry, you are probably a sensible person who doesn't use Dr Google but lots of us are guilty of it!!)

Can I say my AMH was 1.79 when it was measured a few years back and after conceiving through donor egg IVF I have since conceived naturally and have only five weeks to go!

Try not to worry, if you conceived your first baby quickly then I would say you probably haven't got too much to worry about. I hope your husband is recovering well, that must have been a worrying time, my DH had a benign tumour in his stomach a couple of years back and it's scary stuff isn't it.

to you both.

Hi and welcome to
Unfortunately as the girls have said here a lot depends on the clinic, rather than your results being good or bad. There are also different scales to measure hormones, so try not to worry. The fact that they are asking you to do a natural cycle is perfectly ok.
Check this for more info on fsh and amh POF/FSH/Menopause FAQs
(don't get scared by the title though!)

4 is not much lower than 5! If you look at the link FSH of 7 is good too but please make sure you are comparing the same units though or look at the ranges of your clinic/lab as they may differ.

Don't forget to ask the units.

Hi and welcome, Hun
I hope that you will be happy here on FZ. Our IUI thread is pretty quiet but, when you are ready, feel free to pop in onto the IUI chatter thread.
Hoping that the clinic will give you more clarity today...
