Dr. Geoffrey Sher answered
Subject to confirmation through further consultation and testing, I believe your history to be highlyb suggestive of an implantation dysfunction (probably) partly or completely due to an immunologic cause. Implantation dysfunction is often overlooked as a significant reason for IVF failure. This is especially true when IVF failure…

Suspected endometriosis and low AMH.
I have suspected endometriosis and very low ovarian reserve. Should I do a laparoscopy for endometriosis, then PRP therapy to increase my ovarian reserve before I retry IVF? Will this help? My last two attempts at IVF have only ever… — Aqsa G.
Dr. Geoffrey Sher answered
Unless you need surgery because of intractable symptoms or you require surgical treatment of ovarian endometriomas, I would not advocate laparoscopy at all. Your miscarriages could well be due to endometriosis-induced , immunologic implantation dysfunction. When women with endometriosis-related infertility seek treatment, they are often advised to try…

Dr. Geoffrey Sher answered
“Empty Follicle Syndrome" is a misleading term because follicles always contain eggs. However, some eggs may have difficulties detaching and being retrieved. This is more likely to happen when multiple attempts are needed to retrieve an egg from a follicle, indicating the egg may have chromosomal abnormalities. The…

Back in 1989, I conducted a study that examined how the thickness of a woman's uterine lining, known as the endometrium, affected the successful implantation of embryos in IVF patients. The study revealed that when the uterine lining measured less than 8mm in thickness by the day of…
