A hot dozen


Today's US showed I have a dozen happy follicles growing! Well, actually the number is 13, but they aren't counting the 15mm cyst that hasn't grown since day 1. Phew! So, my left side has 5: one 9mm, two 7mm, and two 5mm. My right has 7: two 7mm, four 6mm, and one 4mm. Nurse says this looks good, so we are waiting to see the results of my bloodwork to determine tonight and tomorrow's meds. I am scheduled to go in Wednesday for more look-sees.

What is the target number of follies I want or need anyway?

Awesome! A dozen is fantastic!!! I don't think there is a perfect number - pretty much as much as possible without going into OHSS world. I'm so happy that you have so many growing - very good sign.

Sweet! My RE told me they like to see anything between ten and fifteen for good quality eggs, so twelve sounds perfect to me!

A dozen is fabulous!! Congrats!! Like Alex said as many as you can get without getting OHSS is the best. I got OHSS both IVF cycles, despite chugging Gatorade like it was going out of style during my second cycle. I had about a dozen follies when we triggered for my last cycle. Looks like you're headed in the right direction!!
