I just turned 39 and have low AMH, lower than yours and have been TTC for over a year. I eat 60 g fat daily with exercise and I hold steady. I don't do any low fat stuff at all. I also tried femera this cycle. Maybe that can be an option for you. Honestly your progesterone seems kinda low for a medicated cycle. Maybe clomid isn't the right med for you. Are you have timed BD?

I Know femera is an option, but I had to try 3 months of clomid first per the doctors orders. I think I will pushfor it after I talk to her though.
I really thought this was our month. The night of 10dpo I had bad pressure on my right ovary that circled around my hip to my lower back. It was still there all night and until mid morning 11dpo. Stopped all day and came back for 2-3 hours last night. I also had the twinges in my breast last night. Everything is gone today. Spotting is pink, scarce and only there if I check my cervix, but the stark white bfns kinda squash my hopes.

I'm sorry. Believe me, I know how hard this is and I have wanted to give up a lot, but I just can't yet. I think Atomic is right when she says we just have to wait for the perfect Golden egg! You just have to be ready and willing to do what you can to catch it and try not to miss a month.

I totally agree with AS and djmommy.
I'm not sure it's a comfort to you, and maybe I'm weird, but I do find it comforting that we're 'normal' in our mid to late thirties if 2/3 of the eggs are abnormal. Sounds weird, but it gives me hope that I'm not necessarily broken for taking longer, kwim?
Even IVF the odds aren't anywhere close to a sure thing. You can be doing EVERYTHING right but if the egg that drops is no good, well, it won't stick. And better it not stick at all IMO than chemical or m/c's, yk?Me (38) and DH (38)

Femara! That's what I suggest. I see so many women older tyan 35 respond poorly to Clomid but Femara often works beautifully.
That said, I'd kill for a 12 day LP and Oing on time. Hopefully Clomid does the trick for me...
My Ovulation Chart currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP
TTC #1- swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!
