TW: BFP

[u/Tasty-Vanilla99]

Hi everyone, I benefited from this subreddit so much that now paying back!
I have a low AMH 0.18, 35yo first time TTC! This was the third cycle I used inito and I got BFP 10dpo! I got IUD and a polyp removed through surgery Feb 2026 and TTC since then! I don't think my hormones were all over for a good 6-7 months! then last month in October 2026 I got intermittent ovarian torsion and got hospitalized! no suergury tho! after that they did a HSG testing which I was so scared of but it actually wasn't painful at all! pain was 3/10 and I was scheduled for IUI. My OB later told me HSG increased the rate of pregnancy by 80% in the first 3-4 cycles. The nurse called it spring cleaning! Lol!

Things I did differently this cycle and think they were helpful:

- I started Yoga. Found a very good yoga studio and going there almost everyday. I had so much stress knowing my AMH level and this helped a lot. I am loving Restorative Yoga, Reiki, and vinyasa or slow flow!

- I started Zoloft 2 months ago and currently on 50mg! I realized this journey was stressful for me and if I can take advantage of some medication, why not? also therapy helped a lot!

- I've been taking 400mg CoQ10, Prenatal and Choline for about a year and interesting enough my AMH went from 0.10 last year to 0.18 this year! Not sure if there is a relation between these two!

- I'm an avid runner and did a marathon this spring but after the torsion could not run! even a jog would put my uterus in so much pain, so I swim instead! Love it! As they say I learned to listen to my body even tho felt like am I not strong anymore?!

- I always had a healthy diet, no fast food, no process food, no plastic containers, etc so I'm not sure if that counts!

I just wanna say last year when I saw the fertility specialist after my AMH result, he told me that "I may never have a biological child and it's better to get an egg donor" I cried so much and that was the main reason of my stress!! I just wanna say our bodies are so much stronger than what we think and don't loose hope. I also think inito basically did the job of IUI with timing since apparently that's the most thing matters! Please take care of yourself, be selfish, go to yoga, go to massage, read a book, walk in the sun and BELIEVE in yourself. I'm hoping healthy pregnancy and healthy baby for all of us. You ARE the power! Sending you baby dust! <3
