Infertility

At your baseline u/s for IVF

Did you get the size of follicles and lining and how many follicles they saw on each ovary?

    Yes.  All I remember is 9 follicles on each ovary though.

    ETA I had this scan done before I even started BC for IVF.  So I had that, then did BC and then started injections and didn’t have another ultrasound until a few days in to those.

  • They never told me anything like that. 
  • Lining was thin, where they wanted it. 16 follicles. Didn't get the size as they were small and honestly hard to count all of them. 
  • Well they didn't even tell me how many if any follicles or anything. 
  • All clinics are different.  If you have questions about what they’re doing or not doing I’d ask.

  • I asked about the stuff and they wouldn't answer my question about what she saw at baseline u/s. :(
  • If they had you go ahead and start stims then I would think that everything was in order. They will likely give you numbers at your next monitoring appointment when there is more to see. I would not stress about it if you have started. 
  • I want to know the stuff since I am doing an IVF journal for me and husband for our 1st cycle and it asks for info about baseline. and I knew all the stuff iwth IUI's at each appt.

    Ask for a copy of your visit record. They can't legally keep it from you so if they're being cagey, I'd just ask for a copy for your own file.

  • I did and they gave me a paper that doesn't say anything about how many follicles or anything about cyst that they found that day or anything about one ovary at all. 
  • We can’t help you get the info... I’d tell them what you’re looking for and why and hopefully they’ll give it?
