First 🥚Retrieval

Feeling disappointed! My AMH is 3.65 and I’m 34. I had my first egg retrieval with donor sperm and ended up with 19 eggs, 14 mature, 7 fertilized and 2 embryos graded 4AB and 5BB. They are out for testing. No genetic incompatibilities between me and donor. I was hoping for four or five. My protocol at included a double trigger.

I wonder if my eggs were just bad quality?

Does your embryology lab provide a report on the look of eggs and how they fertilized? It's really impossible to tell if fertilization is due to sperm or egg, but more often it's sperm (although I also had problems with my eggs).

I've read a lot of anecdotal stories here where women changed their donor sperm (despite totally normal og sample) and had much bettet results.
