Hello, I’ve been diagnosed with low AMH (5.5). I’m starting IVF next month. I’m just wondering what people’s experience of a similar situation have been? How many eggs/embryos did you get?

I just found out today that my husband and I will have to do IVF. We were scheduled to start IUI but our doctor thinks IVF will work instead.
