Hi All,

As you might remember from the posts to this forum back in 2008, I became pregant through IVF after three months of DHEA.  My sweet baby girl was born in April 2009.

I am back on DHEA again, albeit for different reasons, to alleviate perimenopause symptoms.  As I am not taking any birth control I will let you know if this 46-year-old body gets a surprise, LOL.

Otherwise, I wanted to say, I do think the DHEA was responsible for increasing my antral follicle count.

Regards,

hi meeko2468

i live in scotland and been trying for years to get pregnant. i am 43 and had 2 iui attempts that ended in miscarriage. i don't qualify for nhs treatment now as i am over 40. i have started taking fertilaid and fertilcm and wondered if anyone else has tried them. i wondered what low Amh meant. and i have now ordered the trimedica that you suggested. do you have to take it while on ivf or any other fertility treatment for it to work, or does it just work on its own? any help on this matter would be very grateful.

I started taking DHEA on march 17th of this year after My lab results were so low they were not even on the range of low. My Dehydroepiandrosterone, S came back at 2.3 ng/ml.. Which if I am figuring this correctly that converts to .023ug/dl. I also tested testosterone,Total and it was 15ng/dl.
Can anyone tell me if these numbers are low? If any of you ladies can help me figure out how low my levels are that would be fantastic! I am 43 and have been ttc since I was 37 with 4 m/c.
