Infertility

How many mm were your follies for IVF?

How big were your follies when they said "It is time"?

My RE's office said 16mm.  Is that right?  I rememeber during IUI's they wanted 18-23mm.

What gives? :)

Thanks, my women!

Re: How many mm were your follies for IVF?

  • My biggest ones were 20ish.... 16 seems early.

  • Don't forget to keep in mind you have a lot! 

     

    I have 5 that are now 21,18,18,18, and 14.  I go back tomorrow to measure again and will most likely trigger tomorrow night and have the ER on Sunday!  

    GL to you and grow follies grow!

  • I had many between 16 and 20 and the others bigger I think my biggest last cycle was 28. I had 27 eggs last time and 30 before that. Anything less than 15 were probably immature.

  • Well, I am AMA and my REl likes to trigger us when the follies around 18 mm. So, your assessment sounds about right to me!

  • My measured between 17 and 20 when I triggered on Sunday.  E2 was over 2400

  • My u/s technician said it also depends on your bw, but that they want to see at least 3 between 18 and 21mm before you trigger.  Good luck
