Fertility Q&A - AMH, Luteal Phase, Tubal Disease, and IVF Cycles

As a Woman

Dr. Natalie Crawford answers your fertility questions sent to the voicemail.

Questions Answered:

1. I am having trouble TTC for my second child after a laparoscopic appendectomy and a mass removed from my peritoneum. Should I be concerned about any structural damage?
2. Does my AMH alone explain my two miscarriages and short luteal phase? What is my likelihood of success with IVF with my low AMH? How many cycles should I expect?
3. After a D&C from a miscarriage, when would you be concerned if your patient hasn’t gotten their period back? What should I look out for or discuss with my doctor to get my period back?
4. Is there a big difference between a day 5 unhatched embryo vs a day 6 hatched embryo?
5. How can the trigger shot impact the timing of your next period?
