Long story short this has been a crazy cycle. I was ready to trigger Monday but had to coast for two days because my E2 was 8,450. Just got home from ER and out of 40 follicles... They only got 10. I know 10 isn't bad.... But it's so low compared to what I was expecting. Now I worry about the quality since my numbers were so off. :
Re: Bummed: ER
I know its not what you were expecting but a true disapointment would be none were mature. 10 is a excellent number, it gives you plenty to work with. In the world of IF we must take a win as a win. Good luck on your fert report.

TTC #2 March - August 2015 = all BFNs
Prep for FET #1: Aug 2015: found "mass" in uterus on saline sonogram; scheduled a hysteroscopy to remove.
Sept 2015: Hysteroscopy: mass turned out to be scar tissue(?), all removed. Recheck saline sonogram 2 weeks later showed "stuff" still in uterus (more scar tissue? remnants from surgery? Will see if clears with a period). Recheck saline sonogram 1 week later: all clear! Start Lupron and Estrace. Follow up u/s 2 weeks later: uterine lining only 5mm, add in patches. Follow up u/s 1 week later: uterine lining = 4.3mm (argh!), stop estrace and patches and start estradiol injections twice/week. Follow up u/s 2 weeks later: uterine lining = 5mm
Instructed to keep on estradiol injections and recheck in 5 days = lining still at 5mm. Need to make a decision - go for it? Or toss in the towel w/ this cycle and start all over again next year with a new protocol. Decided to go for it as we had 17 frosties; what have we got to lose??
