Is it standard practice to measure all the follies when you go in for an ultrasound while stimming or is it normal to just just take a few measurements of the biggest ones?
Just curious what other RE's do

My u/s tech will measure the ones that look over 10mm and then just count the ones that are under. I had a follie check yesterday and she measured a few and none were over 10mm, so she just counted the rest rather than measure them knowing they are not over 10.

Okay, thanks guys. This is pretty much what mine did also and I was a little concerned but it does make sense. Its been some years since I did a fresh cycle and I didn't remember how they did it last time so I was concerned. But now I feel better!
Thanks!

Re: Follie Checks
