It's always an option. It just might be more difficult at your age. You could have pretesting done and that may help you decide whether to try or not.

It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

Hi!
I was 41 when I went HT for my daughter. We were successful on our 4th attempt. I would recommend DHEA for sure and the ability to be able to do several cycles. At our age it really is likely to take more than 1! I also did GSN which I was happy about, at least I knew what I was putting back was OK chromosomally. Good luck!!!!

41 is definitely NOT too old! I'm 41 and trying PGD for what will be my 3rd attempt (each time I was able to get pregnant, but m/c each time). I'm taking DHEA as well as other supplements, but what's really going well is whole food eating. I would definitely do pre-testing as they'll be able to give you an idea of what you need to "fix" or work on before trying. My mistake was assuming I was perfectly healthy and didn't do anything to improve my chances (first 2 cycles). I've seen so many fantastic changes since March I'm always happy to share!!!

Wow this is amazing! Thanks for making such a detailed post. I’m gearing up to start trying again after a couple of years of… chaos basically! Been so worried that my age & DH’s age (mid 40s) will...
