Description
Recently, Kim sent in a question to Ask The Egg Whisperer. She is 44 and has type 2 diabetes. She wants to know if she should continue trying to get pregnant with her own eggs, or consider other options. Here's what she had to say, "I have had 2 normal pregnancies in the past, with the last one 10 years ago. I have a boy and a girl; my husband and I have tried to conceive for the past 4 years naturally without success. We went to a fertility clinic and have done all test possible everything came back good besides that I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes with 11.4 A1C and reduced it to 7 in 3 months, my AMH level was 0.25. We have done an IUI cycle last month, and it was unsuccessful, and we are trying IUI for the second time with clomid and obedril shot as the last time. Are we doing the right thing or are we wasting time? I would really like to avoid IVF if possible, plus I would like to use my own eggs if possible. Thank you!"
