I knew at 19 I couldn't have kids due to a hyseterctomy for cancer. I will be 29 in September. I was fortunately able to keep my ovaries and have been planning alternatives for children ever since......LONG before I ever met my husband. I reccently went through my 1st ER cycle successfully and produced 19 eggs-14 of which were mature, 11 were successfully fertilized and then we had PGD done and were left with three beautiful normal embies. We transfered two on the 30th of July and my surrogate is now pregnant! Not sure if it's a singelton or twins yet but we are thrilled! I have been told that a normal healthy woman can sucessfully produce healthy viable eggs anytime in your 20's vith very little decrease in success. I will say that PGD, although costly, is WELL worth it. You know even before you transfer that the embryo's are normal and have an excellent chance of taking and continuing on to full term. Good luck to all, I am crossing my fingers for tomorrow's hcg level
