Hey everyone! I’m not sure if this is the right place to post as I haven’t gotten an official POI diagnosis, and I’m considered DOR. My AMH is super low (undetectable) but my FSH can swing from 9 to 60. My REI still won’t say POI because I still get spontaneous cycles that range from 23-35 days, but are unpredictable. I have no other classic menopause symptoms and irregular cycles have been since my late teens / early 20s so I may have been DOR all along.

I’m currently 34 and I’m egg freezing because I’m still single and I want to wait for a partner first. (I’m not open to donor eggs or single parenting at this tine). My doctor said if I was willing to get pregnant now, IUI would be a good option, but my goal is freezing for now, knowing my early menopause risk.

I was initially turned away from an egg freezing clinic at 32 but at 34 I had one amazing doctor who took a chance on me. We had two cancelled cycles because both times I ovulated quickly but we finally managed to retrieve 1 egg at the third attempt and I couldn’t be prouder of my body.

I understand that 1 egg isn’t enough for the bank so my doctor said a realistic target is 4-5 at my age. I’m open to doing more cycles. My issue is that my AFC usually hovers from 4-6 at the beginning of the cycle but two follicles hog up the stims but the end. Is there a way to evenly distribute the growth so I can potentially retrieve more in one cycle? I have my follow up appointment in a couple of days so I want to come prepared with questions for him. Otherwise I’ve budgeted 4 cycles for 4 eggs, knowing it’s the best I can get. I’m just hoping I could somehow get two eggs per cycle.

The protocol we did was estrase priming with letrozole after and stims with double orgalutran to prevent ovulation. And triggering at 17 mm. A natural start did manage to recruit more follicles but I lost the cycle too quickly to ovulation.

Not sure if this is the right sub but I was talking to a lady in an Uber who told me that if one is collecting EI and decides to go back to school to find a new career path, they can get OSAP non repayable grants to do so? I’m a software engineer, navigating a layoff and looking for a new career path as a high school teacher because this is not a stable one. I was curious what the options are as I’m looking for a 2027 start. I couldn’t find anything about it thru google but I thought I’d ask reddit.

Hey everyone! I’m a fellow DORer and after being turned away from one clinic at 32 to having cancelled cycles due to quick ovulation, I finally made it to retrieval and got 1 egg last week! I know it’s not much but I’m so proud of my body!

I’m currently 34 and I’m egg freezing because I’m still single and I want to wait for a partner first. (I’m not open to the donor route at this time). I still get cycles (though irregularly) but my doctor still won’t call me POI since I’m still cycling. I occasionally have high FSH but generally hovers around 9. My doctor said if I was willing to get pregnant now, IUI would be a good option, but my goal is freezing for now, knowing my early menopause risk.

This is a first for me. I’m a senior level professional dealing with a layoff and I applied to lead analyst roles at Lyft. I heard back from a recruiter who initially said I was selected for a data analyst role (which I didn’t apply for) but then she said she made a mistake and it was lead analyst. We scheduled a time to talk. I was recovering from surgery but still made it to the online interview. 5 minutes pass. I sent her an email. No response. 15 minutes pass. I finally decided to leave and asked for another opportunity to reschedule. This was on Thursday. It’s now Monday and I haven’t heard from them. I found the head of recruitment on LinkedIn and sent her a message, saying I’d really like the job but that too no response. I’m just frustrated that companies can get away with this behaviour 😞

Anyone find it interesting how many families of the main characters are raised as single children? Bobby, Connie, Luanne, Joseph, Hank, and Dale are all I can think of. But doesn’t seem right for 1970s-90s Texas homes unless I’m wrong.

I’m a software engineer with two masters degrees and 10 years of experience but I’m on my second layoff in three years. In the past I haven’t had difficulty finding jobs but this job market is brutal and I don’t know if I can keep relying on a boom and bust industry. I worked at Kumon centres from high school to grad school and I enjoy teaching math. And I could probably teach computer science in high school. Should I consider pursuing a B.Ed.?
