Low Ovarian Reserve, Severe Endometriosis With Bilateral Blocked Tubes. Failed IVF. Prolonged Use Of Decapeptyl?
Dear doctor;
I am 38 years old married for one year with no children.I have low ovarian reserve, poor responder , severe endometriosis with bilateral blocked tubes.I did one failed ivf on long protocol with decapeptyl and maximum dose of menogon.I produced 5 eggs , 4 were fertilized with 3 excellent embryos and one with lesser grade.I transfered all & non of them stuck.
This time my RE started me on yasmine oral contraception on day 2 of menses & added decapeptyl on day18 & was planning to start stimulation with gonal-f 300 unit after 14 days of starting decapeptyl and to continue stimulation for about 10 days.
But now he changed his plane and want me to continue on decapeptyle for 1 month instead of 2 weeks just because his vaccation was scheduled on my expected date of embryo transfere and I am now worried about oversupresion of my ovaries because of prolonged use of decapeptyle.I am really confused and don't know what to do.Can you please advice me & tell how to deal with this prolonged use of decapeptyl??

Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Following is my reply:
1) Using decapeptyl may not help you much.
2) Since you are already 38 with low ovarian reserve I request you to go ahead with IVF as soon as possible.
3) If you dont get good eggs, go ahead with donor IVF treatment
