Follie Check #1

I have to admit I was optimistic, yet extremely nervous for today's follie check, since I'm on MDL for the first time.  Well, I am happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised by the results.

At baseline, I had 10 follicles and I today I had 17!  There were 7 on the right (one 9mm, two 8mm, and four 7mm).  I had the same on the left, except there were five 7mm, two 5mm, and one 4mm.

I am still waiting on my blood work, which I will add later, but I am so happy right now.  Last time, on the same protocol, minus MDL, I had 13 to start and 15 follies at my 1st u/s, which was after 6 days of stims, vs. only 4 days this time.  They were nearly identical in size too.  Last cycle had three 10mm, but the rest were 5-9mm. Most importantly, there is no lead follicle right now.

I know it's early, and something bad can still happen, but I'm really excited right now, and luckily this can hold me over through Thanksgiving, since my next check isn't until Friday.

Re: Follie Check #1

  • Great news cycle buddy!!  17 sounds amazing!!  Tell me again what is MDL?  I am also slightly jealous that your next scan is Friday, they originally said I would come in on Friday, but they pushed it to Saturday (which does make our Friday travel plans less hectic). 

    Ok, talk me off my ledge.  I have 3 follies that are 11-13 and a lot of ones in the 7-9 range, over 12 on each side so she didn't give me all the numbers.  I posted my E2 levels below.  Will you tell me if you know anything about all this???
