xp: cd12 u/s - good or bad?

kamcfarlane

i had my cycle day 12 ultrasound today to check my follicle size before we trigger. i have a 32mm (!), a 17mm, and a 15mm. we're triggering tomorrow (after we let the lining thicken a bit more, i'm only at 7 today).

does anyone have any experience with a gigantic follicle? i'm thinking things look pretty good, but with the huge follicle, i'm not so sure....

I had a 22 (I know not nearly as big)  but I have also had three mature follicles and didn't get pregnant that cycle.  I actually ended with a cyst after that cycle.  Based on your blood work they can estimate whether all three have eggs.

 32!!!!  WOW!!!  Well you had me curious and so I googled it and some women have had those big follies.  So I wouldn't count that one out.  As for the other two they sound like winners for a late trigger tomorrow  GL!  Are you doing IUI or TI?Also, follow up w/your doctor if you get any odd bleeding or pain!  I remember I had a big "follie" that was in the 20's on like cycle 2 last time around (I went to cycle 6 that time) that actually was a killer cyst.  So keep an eye open... big cysts SUCK!

we're doing TI. we bd'd last night in case the 32 ovulates on its own and then we'll trigger today in hopes that maybe the other 2 will ovulate. *fingers crossed!*

From what my RE (well, two actually) have told me, anything over a certain size (maybe 25 or so) normally is a cyst.  I think that is why they will trigger people when follicles get to be a certain size....to prevent that from happening.  

But you have two other excellent follicles, so good luck!
