Trouble TTC

IUI and size follicles?

What has your RE said about the size your follicles should be for IUI?

I was told 26mm is the goal by my RE for IUI, but that they will do the IUI if I ovulate based on OPK despite the size.

There is just so much information out there on the internet, it's hard not to second guess and get worried.

Re: IUI and size follicles?

  • From what I understand everyone eggs mature at a different size. It more depends on your blook work. If your blood says your going to O then you will.

    I did not OPK last month since the drs office watched me so closely.

  • My RE likes follies between 20-25mm to trigger/IUI.  I had a 23 yesterday and we triggered, but I ended up O'ing sometime between trigger and my first IUI that was 24 hours after trigger.
    11/10: IUI #1 =100mg Clomid CD4-8 + pregnyl trigger + IUI = chemical pregnancy
    1/11: IUI #2 = 5mg Femara + trigger + IUI = BFN
    2/11: IUI #3 = injectibles + trigger + IUI = BFN
    IVF #1 April 2011 ER 4/23 w/16 eggs retrieved, 14 mature, 11 fert., 4 blasts to freeze, 5dt of 2 blasts on 4/28, beta #1 5/7 = 243... beta #2 5/9 = 491....beta #3 5/11 = 1113!!

  • I have no idea, as it's my first IUI cycle attempt.  But I went in this morning for blood work and U/S after 7 days on 75mg of Gonal-F shots and things are apparently "still rather quiet" so my dosage has been upped to 112.5 for two more nights, then back to the doc for more of the same tests.  Has anyone else had good results when their dosage was upped?
  • My RE considers a size of 18 a mature follicle.
