Chris,

How was the diagnosis of ovarian failure made ? If you do in fact have a high baseline FSH ( follicle stimulating hormone ) level in your blood, then the diagnosis is confirmed. This is usually an irreversible condition, and the chance of your getting pregnant without treatment is very poor.

However, the good news is that with donor egg test tube baby treatment, your chances of having a baby are excellent !

You should also be on hormone replacement therapy ( estrogens, specifically) - are you taking this ? >
