Kelly: I had the exact same experience as Martha though in my case, I switched to Cornell and got pregnant there on my first cycle of the "low and slow protocol" after many unsuccessful cycles at another program including an IVF cycle where I was told that I had poor egg quality. Dr. Rosenwaks at Cornell told me point blank that there was nothing wrong with the quality of my eggs. Rather, he said, that I had been on the wrong medication protocols. So, don't give up hope. But make sure that you are being treated by a RE who is familiar and experienced with the low dose protocols. FYI, there is an article coming out in the next issue of the AIA newsletter about PCOS and IVF by Dr. Steven Spandorfer, one of the doctors who treated me at Cornell and one of the co-moderators of this message board.
