MY DIAGNOSIS | What is Diminished Ovarian Reserve? | BABY STEPS

In this video I talk about what my infertility diagnosis is and what it means for fertility treatments and family planning.

Don't forget to check out my companion blogs on my website:

I am exactly like you...Hugs. I started TTC at 29 and realised in time I have DOR...My doctor told me to seriously consider IVF this year as I don't have much time left...32yo this year. I wished I tried TTC earlier in my life

This was a very informative explanation of DOR. I have the opposite, PCOS. It was masked by taking birth control for 12 years as I was actively preventing getting pregnant. Go figure. Thank you again for sharing. Your videos are going to help so many!

Oh my goodness I relate so much to having that gut/soul feeling of knowing something was wrong with my fertility and identify with other peoples stories. So strange how our intuition works! I just started out my journey and having my journey on youtube. This is new to me so all support and advice is welcomed!

Gosh I couldn’t help but cry when you stated that your husband is fine and it’s you with the issue. You’re such an angle I can tell. I’m exactly like you, my AMH level is so low, everything else is fine. I might have endometriosis tho since I have all the symptoms but my mri and ultrasound are fine. I was just diagnose 3 days ago and I feel awful. I don’t know if I should try or stop since it’s painful to have intercourse. I’m 33 soon 34. I love my husband and I love kids but maybe it’s not meant to be… anyway, you look heathy and beautiful ❤️ thanks for sharing your story

Im not planning to become pregnant. But I find this interesting. My mom had me at 34. My sister at 37. My great great grabdmother had her last son at 42! Must have been so rare back in those days!

Ma’am did you have normal periods still? Or any symptoms? I’m worried I have this because I was anorexic when I was 12 and I heard it can cause low ovarian reserve I want to see a fertility doctor but I know there expensive and do you know if obgyn can test AMH levels?
