I'm on day 4 of Gonal F and had our first follicle scan this morning. We had 7 follicles in the right and 7 in the left ovaries. We started 325 of Gonal F on day one then went down to 225 on days two and three. After the scan this morning RE has lowered us to 112.5 today and 150 tomorrow. That seems like a drastic decrease to me. Is this large decrease normal? Thanks
Re: What Gonal F Dosages Were You On?
for my IVF i was only on 150 and got 15 eggs. i am one of those responders that there's no growth and then BOOM... so they need to be slow and steady with me.
I'm sure that your doctors are watching your E levels as well and that's why. Sometimes they take you off completely and have you coast. I wouldn't worry. Good Luck!!

I'm on follistim, but I've was on 150 iu for the first 3 days, then they moved me down to 125 iu.
They are probably trying to slow you down a bit to mature the follies in a batch (ie let the smaller ones catch up).
