Hey ladies, looking for some support or anyone who can speak to simliar experiences. After our first attempt at IVF, we canceled the retriveal because we had a lead follicle situation. One that was so far ahead of the pack and so we pulled the plug because we didnt want to continue on knowing how few we'd probably retrieve. I'm looking for good results here because we can't keep doing IVF over and over. I dont want to be greedy, but with this kind of money on the line, I'm hoping for at least more than 5.
So this time around, we started me on Estrace(estrodial) about 6 days after I ovulated. This was to supress my ovaries from beginning to make follicles before we were ready for them, with the hope that we'd come in with everyone around the same size, and then hopefully begin stimulation and have multiples growing around the same rate. Make sense?
Anyway, went in for my baseline today, and they couldnt see ANY. So I know we were supressing, but did we over supress? Has anyone done this and had this happen? I have my next follow up on Saturday morning to scan and possible bloodwork(I assume only if we have follies showing). Just hate feeling like this on the first day. I'm also in the low normal range for eggs..not in low, but LOW-Normal if that makes sense. Also, I'm cycle day 2. Would love any help. THanks
