Honestly- I don't know much about the antagonist protocol yet, except that the antagonist should keep the initial dominant folies from jumping too far ahead of the others (in size). We'll also be doing assisted hatching if we can do another IVF.

I think we're leaning hard towards TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) w/ acupuncture and then maybe IUIs or if we can find the financing IVF. I've been reading The Infertility Cure and there are a couple of places where I've been able to identify things that TCM may be able to address.

I always thought I'd feel better having a diagnosis, but now that we have it, not so much. I feel pretty confident my sis would donate for me, but we're really not there yet. My mom was kinda cute when we discussed it and she said her only worry would be that my baby sis "isn't as smart as you". Baby sis got all the super cute genes in the family, but not so much on the IQ side of things.
