I used Gonal-f which my RE said is kind of the same thing. I had two mature follicles. One was 20mm and the other was 24mm. I triggered on a Saturday and my IUI was on a Tuesday. Good Luck!!!!

I used gonal-f, had 2 mature follicles (don't remember sizes exactly, but I believe one was around 19.5, the other was around 18 at trigger). I triggered on a Friday night, and had IUI that Sunday morning (36 hours later).
I used femara with a smidge of follistim thrown in for three days and ended up with probably three mature follicles, out of four possibles. The day of my scan I had one that was 18, one 16 and one 15 and then one that was lagging behind. I began to surge on my own the next day so I triggered that night and had the IUI the next morning, so about 12 hours after the trigger. Normally my RE has you trigger and then does the IUI 36 hours later.

Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck. Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.
Re: Any Follistim/IUI success stories?
Here are my two blog posts about my 2nd Follistim/IUI cycle.
