TTC IVF + 40

I'm 41, have had 3 failed IUI and the Dr suggested I move into IVF. He has recommended 600 of Gonal-F and 600 of Menopour daily.Is this right? for my last IUI I was taking 450 of each and only produced 1 egg. I decided to take a month off to give my body a break and I have lost 10lbs. I'm starting the IVF cycle next week. Any success stories with such a high dose? Please, please pray for me and that this cycle is successful.

Stay positive, I pray that everything goes well with you tomorrow.
I hope that giving my body a rest for a cycle makes a difference and the hormones work better this time as it is my last hope. We are moving at the end of next month to another country , so if I don´t get pregnant in this cycle I guess that will be it.

Hi there,  I am sending you lots of luck.
I just completed my 2nd IVF but first with high dosage of meds.  I was on 450 Gonel-F & 1 menopur daily.  I was able to get 8 follices, 6 eggs, 4 fertalized & transfer 3.  (the last one didn't make it)
Anyway, My beta is tomorrow but don't think it worked...........I am 38 & starting to believe I may have to do donor eggs.
