So my elevated E2 levels are pointing to the possibility that I have a diminished ovarian reserve. In fun terms this means that I have a lower amount of eggs than I'm supposed to for my age.
How does this change anything? It doesn't. It just sucks. Who wants to hear that there might be something wrong? Nothing changes.
I've got nothing else to say except that this is just another bump in the road.
On a another note, day 2 of BCP's and all is well.

- Unwavering Hope
- I am a 29 year old woman married to my best friend and love of my life. My husband is 39 and has been diagnosed w/ Male Factor Infertility. I have a diminished ovarian reserve (FSH levels 11.9 & 7.8 ). We have tried IUI's and are now on the path to IVF w/ ICSI. Our third attempt lead us to where we are now. We are now blessed with our miracle son. This is our journey.

I'm maybe a few weeks ahead of you on my first IVF. It's a journey. Good luck!!
