Estrogen levels /trigger injection

in Trouble TTC

At what estrogen level will an Re usually instruct you to trigger in preparation for an IUI?

                 

TTC since 2012 

Dx : DOR

IUI #1 (Follistim switched over to Menopur injections) - BFN

Attempted IUI #2 (Menopur injections only cycle) better response on the Menopur then the Follistim combination treatment cycle however my cycle was still canceled due to my eggs not maturing and follicles not growing enough on a high dose of Menopur (Re said I could try a cycle of comid + ovidrel  for an IUI) for my second IUI( praying this works for us)

  Clomid + Ovidrel protocol worked still a BFN as a result

Attempted cycle  Clomid  + Ovidrel protocol for IUI # 3 (Unable to do this cycle due to a cyst)

IUI # 3 Clomid+ Ovidrel protocol - BFP    Beta #1 752  Beta #2  1536    Beta #3 3797

EDD 10/27/14

Our sweet baby boy arrived on 9/2/14 TTC # 2 Conceived without help- June 2015 July 2015- Miscarriage ( blighted ovum)
March 2016 (ectopic pregnancy) :(

    I'm not really sure, but mine was 165 two days ago and today it was 439 so I am injecting tonight.  Not sure if this helps much.
    Ba hahahaha!

    That number will vary depending on how many mature follies you have, there is no "set" level. Each mature follie will account for about 200 of your e2 level.

    They want this - but also the size.  So that is why they will do an U/S and B/W to look at both aspects.  You could have 3 follies above size 18 but they are waiting for the e2 to be over 600.  Or you could have two follies with an e2 of over 400 but the follies are under 18mm.  Anything over 15mm can possibly ovulate and be mature but the best is to wait until a follie is 18mm and producing over 200 units of estrogen before trigger.
