So many thing going through my head now !!!!

Re: Day 6 of stims

  • I believe I heard that follicles can grow up to 2-3 mm per day, so you'll probably have some nice mature follicles if things continue the same way for you.

    As far as whether or not 6 is enough - one could argue that one is all that you need. Of course I understand your concern. With all the things we know that can go wrong (immaturity, no/poor fertilization, etc) everyone wants to have as many eggs as possible to start with.

    Try not to worry about it though. There really isn't a relationship between number of eggs retrieved and success. Some people get a lot of eggs but not many blasts and some people have very few eggs retrieved that all turn into perfect embryos.

    Just do your best to stay calm and hope for the best. Good luck!
