HIGh FSH

Hi I am new to the board as well. I am 37 years old and have been ttc for 7 months. My husband and I strated seeing an RE in Nov. My husband is fine, but my fsh levels have been.19.4, 11.0, 12.2, and 9.7. I have aslo been seeing an acupuncurist, and 3 weeks ago had surgery for endo. Apparently, I had a VERY bad case, and it was not very pretty down there- my right ovary was pushed down. My last day 3 test showed my fsh level at 9.7, my esrogen 28.8 and 4 follicles on both sides. what do you think my best option is at this point? Clomid? I don't know if it is worth a shot.

An elevated FSH implies you are running out of eggs.  Having 4 identified follicles on each ovary is rather marginal.  We would like to see greater than 4.  It might be worth a try, but you may need to use an egg donor.
Good luck.

Your FSH is a bit high, but if you do nor have problems with erectios, it is not an immediate problem.  I do suggest you see an Endocrinologist to complete your evaluation.  When you are ready to have children, you may need some assistance with your sperm.
Good luck.
