Could I have bad quality eggs? Help!

Hi girls,

Can I ask you a question pls?

How can they tell if you have good quality eggs? I have just had a failed IUI (first one) and am going to do 2 more and then IVF. The first time I ever heard the word follicle was when I went for my scan on CD10. I had two good follicles and the doc was happy.

Now I am trying to educate on IVF and all I'm getting mixed up re follies and egg's?? I'm now thinking that I have bad eggs if the IUI hasn't work. Could they have seen that at this stage? I'm trying to find an explanation for all this (DH sperm was excellent I was told so it's not him).

I fall under the category of unexplained infertility.
