When I was 19, I underwent surgery for a very large cyst on my ovary. It was successfully removed, but a year later, I had 2 more, one on each ovary. I underwent another surgery where I lost my left ovary due to not enough healthy tissue.
Since losing one of my ovaries, I’ve gone through 1 cycle of IVF where I got to freeze only 1 embryo. I am once again having symptoms of a new cyst in my ovary.
I want to be able to do 1-2 more cycles of IVF to freeze a few more embryos so my husband and I have a chance of getting to be parents in the future.
I am currently 22 and am terrified to lose my second ovary. I would be unable to have my own children. I have always wanted to be a mother and have a family. If I could freeze a few more embryos just so I have the chance of even having one biological child, it would mean the world to me.
I am currently in college and still paying off my last IVF treatment. We are both in medical debt and still in debt from our wedding, but I want to be able to do this before I lose my ovary.
Any amount of money would be amazing! Even a dollar would go a long way. All money that I earn will help to pay for any more IVF treatments I end up getting.
