Newbie: On clomid and had 5 to maybe 7 mature follicles

Has this happen to anyone before? Does this mean that I am going to ovulate all five of them? My nurse from my RE office told me that I was out. I was so sad that I cried in her office.

I've never had that many. My RE won't do trigger and IUI if I have more than 3. There is a possiblity that all five would release.

Yes that would mean you would ovulate all of them and risk a multible pregnancy with 5-7 babies and possibly more if any divided. That is why they would have cancelled the cycle. It sounds like you were over stimulated.

Yes, like PP, most RE's will cancel if you have more than 5 because the risks of multiples is just too high. I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. We were close to that last cycle, I had 3 over 18 mm on day 12 with a whole bunch close behind so we triggered that day to keep any more from maturing. Hopefully you can do the next cycle with a lower dose of Clomid, or earlier monitoring?

don't you just wish we could catch a break with all this IF crap? I hope you guys get a plan that works for you next month!

I'm sorry to hear about your cancelled cycle. I produced 5 mature follies on Clomid once and my RE cancelled my cycle too so I know how much it sucks.
