Injects raised my AFC??? (DOR related)

Manada

Hello IF board.

I normally stick on TTTC because I'm in IUI territory still, but I check in with the DOR check-in here so I thought I'd see if any of you ladies have ever experienced this.

 I did a cycle of Puregon (Follistim) last month, with dismal results of only one lead follicle after 16 days of stimming... and got a BFN.   So today I went in for my CD3 BW and US and the RE told me that my AFC this month was a grand total of 28!  (16 in one side and 12 in the other).  We were worried about cysts while the u/s tech was taking her time doing her measuring today as there were some ones that seemed a little odd/big on the screen, but she didn't write anything in the chart and the RE was thrilled with my surprised AFC.  I have never had an AFC over 11, and have been as low as 6 in other cycles.

So what gives?  I've never heard of such a jump before, and the only thing I can think of is that it was either related to the puregon or the progesterone I was on.   Has anyone ever had this happen before?    It almost feels like its too good to be true....

AFC can vary quite a bit month over month. So don't be disappointed if it's lower again next month. But yay, that's a lot! Hopefully you get 2 or 3 this next round.

That's a lot!  The number definitely can vary month to month but that sounds like what a "normal" woman would have at your age.  Any change of converting to IVF this cycle to take advantage?

Good luck!
