WHO: Wife was 36 and Husband >36

HOW LONG HAVE TTC: almost 10 years

FERTILITY ISSUE: Wife did not have a good number of eggs available (doctors susupected she was going into early menopause). Husband did not have a vas deferens and was unable to eject sperm.

TREATMENT: After 3 failed IVF treaments in the UK and 1 IVF that resulted in a miscarriage at 6 weeks, they decided to come to Canada for another IVF treatment.

RESULTS: The first IVF Treatment in Canada resulted in a pregnancy, but miscarriage occured at 5 weeks. A second attempt at IVF was done using her frozen embryo. The embryo quality was labelled as Good (a little better than poor). Wife decided to go for it anyways. The first embryo quality was labelled as Very Good. Alhumdulillah, this second IVF resulted in a pregnancy and she is now 8.5 months pregnant.

EXTRA EFFORTS: The wife continuously recited a certain dhikr that was prescribed to her by a Shaykh. She also continuously read Surah Al Imran Ayats 5-6 throughout the day. For the first IVF treatment in Canada, the wife only did accupuncture *after *the IVF. For the second successful IVF, she did accupuncture *before *and after the IVF.

this is more information about this couple:

*“My lowest FSH ever was 8, but then over the years it got close to 10 and I think it was even 11 or 12 when I did my last IVF wth Dr. S. Generally my FSH levels were getting higher each year as I got older (which wasn’t great for ICSI), but one thing that is new but controversial in increasing egg quality ('cause egg quality decreases as FSH Levels increase with age) is a drug called DHEA, which Dr. S said I could take - actually I suggested it to him after doing research and he said yes that I could take it in my case. Since it wasn’t available in the UK without prescription, I ordered it from the States (a vegetarian - halal one without gelatine). And I used it for 3 or 4 months before starting the ICSI with Dr. S, and I’m not sure if that helped, or if was Acupuncture (which is also supposed to help) or Allah’s decree (which is always true) or the combination of all 3 which made me have the best ICSI session ever with Dr. S, and finally got me pregnant this far. Ultimately its all up to Allah in the end.”
