My son has season allergies and also a severe allergy to peanuts. Last lab check in 2021 had peanuts around 40. Tree nuts are less than 5. He’s never had skin testing, only labs with one oral reaction at 11mo. Is there any way to desensitize to peanuts? I’m pretty sure his throat was closing. I see this new patch out but don’t know much about it. Thank you. :)

Is there anything that can be done for egg quality? We conceived via IVF at 41. PGS was done and we have a healthy 18 month old. Another attempt at IVF at 43 and only 1 became a blastocyst but was genetically abnormal. I take DHEA 75, CoQ10, and Myo-Insitol as they say it helps quality. I also take lots of other vitamins along with acupuncture .

Is there any true help for egg quality? We’ve had 2 pregnancies on our own since my son but miscarried both. Turner Syndrome for one and chemical for the last. Thank you for any insight.

I would do it IMO. I feel like gynecologists should ask you at a certain age if you want kids and to think about egg freezing so fertility issues due to poor egg equality aren’t an issue. Met my husband when I was 39. It was my first marriage. At 40, we had 2 miscarriages. Did IVF at 41 and had one embryo out of 6 that didn’t have genetic issues. Our son is now 19 months old. At 43, had 2 additional miscarriages due to genetic issues. Tried IVF and had 2 eggs fertilized but only 1 accepted the sperm. It had genetic issues. It’s a lot to go thru with injections to have zero healthy embryos. It’s a hard road for sure. Best of luck.
