Hope following fertilisation failure?
Hi everyone. I had an egg collection on Monday. We got 4 eggs but unfortunately none of these fertilised following ICSI. I’m completely devastated. After 4 rounds I feel like the journey might be coming to an end, and I’m not ready to face the idea that we might not ever have a baby.
I’m looking for a bit of hope. Anyone else on here had a round with failed fertilisation and gone on to get viable embryos in subsequent rounds?
For info, I’m 37 and have been doing IVF since 2022.
-Aug 2022: fresh cycle, 7 eggs, 3 fertilised, 1 blast, BFP. Ended in chemical pregnancy
-Jan 2023: fresh cycle, 7 eggs, 2 fertilised 1 morula: BFN.
-April 2023: fresh cycle, 7 eggs, 1 fertilised, 1 4AB blast. Freeze all.
-May 2024: FET, BFP. Ended in MMC.
-Feb 2025: fresh cycle, 4 eggs, none fertilised.
Yes. Mine was like yours. 4 eggs (2 were over mature) and the other 2 didn't fertilise. I started taking women's probiotics vaginally and a general probiotic orally. My FS popped me on a different protocol and we got 11, all fertilised, 7 made it to day 5/6. My fresh transfer didn't work but my second one did. Still very early though. Trying solo for over 5 yrs. I'm 42 in may and my ER was this year. There is hope x
