Help with follicle size
Hi ladies,
I've been stimming for 7 days and had a scan today. They counted 11 follicles on 1 ovary and 3 on the other, but all were between 5 and 10mm at present. They said early days yet, but just wondered if I'm still in with a chance (3 follies were about10mm)
I feel really down, I really can't cope if I don't even make to egg collection.
Thanks

I had to trust that they knew what they were doing and that they'd help me if things weren't going well. 11 follicles is a good number and you have plenty of time for them to keep growing.
I've trawled back through my previous cycle and on day 7 I had a scan with 9 follicles they actually measured (there were more) measuring between 7.5 and 15mm was the largest so apparently I was a little ahead of average and they might cut my menopor down (which they didn't) so your follicles sound pretty darned good to me In fact no, you should be bloomin chuffed you've got 14 follies.
I was also worried that the smaller ones were too small however by EC there were some that were 22mm plus and they were no use! So my personal feeling is you've got a fab number and size and just keep chugging along.
Honestly it's all looking fab so far

Just trying to stay positive and see what happens at the scan on Friday xxx
Hope the extra menopor kick started your follicles. Very inconsiderate there wasn't much change on wednesday.
I got really annoyed with all the bubbles mixing up so many vials!
Good luck for your scan today,
