Even if you are ovulating and things look good from an ultrasound, are there some women whose eggs aren't good or fertile or something like that?

Hi Nancyfinger, welcome!

I think I have read that as a woman ages her eggs can be of lower quality than they were during the years she was at the peak of her fertility. That is about all I know on the subject and I don’t remember seeing a discussion of it on this board in the 16 months that I have been here. You might try posting your question on the iVillage Gynecology board at http://messageboards.ivillage.com/iv-bhgynconcern and that is a really good question to ask your doc.

Good luck
