  My first cycle I triggered when the majority of my follies started measuring between 17 and 19. As of today, I have 2 follies that are measuring 18, but they didn't have me trigger tonight because I have about 5 more in the 14 to 17 range. Good luck!

  My follies were basically in the 14-21mm range. I had a few more that were 13ish that I'm not sure if they were mature. All my follies were so squished that they didn't all get measured and the ones that did were not always accurate. I had a 21mm follie 3 days before my last day of stims and I never had any bigger than that either, so it must've just been squished.
