Follie Size

I had my follie check today for our second IUI, which is tomorrow.  I had 4 follies, the nurses were very excited about a size 32, the rest were in 18 to 24.   They know it is not a cyst because I have had ultrasounds every two weeks.  I know very little about the size and if/how that effects the chances?   Any of you know?  Ovidrel Injection at 9:30am today and IUI tomorrow at 10:30.

TIA!

    Wow, 32 is really big!  I've never heard anything about bigger size = better odds of success, but having 4 nice, big follies like you have should give the sperm lots of targets.  Good luck :)

June 2011:Provera&50 mg Clomid; Progesterone:0.7 July 2011:Provera&100mg Clomid; Progesterone:3.29 Met with RE:No Clomid response, begin injectables Sep 5 mg Letrozole and Ovidrel in the interim month. Cut out running (was a distance-runner), cycling, eliptical. Restricted to weight-training, walking, pilates. Brain MRI normal. Being physically over-stressed is the reason the body stopped producing prog. Late Sep 2011: Menopur, Ovidrel,& IUI (10.10.11):BFN-Great injectable response: 2 mature, 6 near mature, many smaller; Problem: 9 cysts! Dr: IUI too uncontrolled for number of viable eggs & age. On to IVF! IVF ER 12.6: 37 mature eggs, 27 fertilized, froze all to avoid overstimulation; FET 1.22 (2 Grade 1)=BFN; FET 2.22 (3 Grade 2)=BFP!
