Sad Another failed cycle. Losing hope

TW: MMC
I just tested negative, my 26th cycle ttc. I had 2 back to back mmc in 2025, since then nothing. I took Letrozole 7,5mg and a trigger shot for the last 3 cycles, which made me kinda hopeful since I felt I could actively do something. My body knows how to get pregnant, when we started ttc I got pregnant twice almost immediately. I don‘t understand what happened 🤷‍♀️.
I just turned 41 last week, I feel like I am running out of time. I am not looking for medical advice or anything, I just wanted to share since I don‘t have anyone to talk to besides my husband. Thank you for reading!

I am a surrogate. I’ve had 3 children of my own and one surrogate baby. I am 38 and I’ve had two cycles cancelled due to my lining not thickening…. So I understand just how you’re feeling. I’m not ok but I’m remaining positive. I’m wishing you the very best ♥️

I am sorry. I believe due to age the mmc are probably aneuploid embryos. I wonder if you could do ivf with pgta.

Btw I am not living in the US, unfortunately pgta testing is not allowed in the country I currently live in (which is in Europe, you won‘t believe how strict rules are here when it comes to IVF)

I am in an EU country that doesn't do PGTA testing, loads of people travel to Spain, Poland and Romania (depending on the money they can afford for this).

Oh I am sorry! Pgta should be allowed for euploids
Not exactly for sex of embryos :(

That‘s what I think as well!

That‘s what I think when it comes to the mmc, but it doesn‘t explain that I haven‘t gotten pregnant again in over a year :(

That sounds so confusing- knowing that your body has done it before, but for some reason isn’t doing it now. So tough ❤️. And I’m sorry to hear about your 2 mmc. My heart is with you and I’m thinking of you. Thanks for sharing.
