one follicle way ahead of the rest

in TTC after 35

Is it common that one follicle be way ahead of the rest?

I am only on day 7 and there is one on my left that is 14mm while 3 others are at 10mm. The Femara/Letrazole really worked, as they put it. They are putting me on Cetrotide to slow them down. But now I am concerned - I am spending so much money (about $1000) and time on this for it not to go right, or at least give me the optimum chances...

    Yeah, unfortunately, I think that is common. I always had 1 bigger follie and then a small second. I was never given cetrotide to slow it down (ganirelix does the same). They use those drugs in IVF to get follies to grow together so you don't get a lead follie.  I think it is positive that you are being given cetrotide so you have a chance for the 10mm to catch up!
