follies still haven't grown :(

it's now CD15, i've done 3 rounds of gonal-f at 75iu each, and nothing. i have a handful of follies all around 10mm. it sounds like (based on where my estrogen levels come back at) i'll be doing gonal-f every day now instead of every other day. the nurse said that i shouldn't worry about the length of the cycle - since i didn't really respond to the clomid at all, it's as though when we started with gonal-f was the baseline. so it's as though i'm on CD8 right now. so, i'll tentatively be going back on Wed and hopefull i'll have 1-2 bigger follies then.

    Good luck with everything on Wed.  Hopefully the gonal-f everyday will kick-start those follies.

    i'm sorry. i know how frustrating that is. i go in for a follie check this afternoon and i am so worried they will still be the same size.  the gonal-f should do the trick though, you're probably just a slow responder

    Grow little follies GROW!!

    I know how frustrated you are, I was the same way on my last IVF.  Mine had a HUGE growth spurt in what seemed like overnight so try not to panic, I'm sure they'll catch up to where they need to be. 

    Good Luck on Wednesday.  :)

    I hear you.  So frustrating.

    I went for my u/s this morning after 9 days of Follistim 50 IU.  We thought we would trigger today, but the sizes are too small.  12 and 14.  So, more stims and maybe trigger on Weds.

    Let's hope that our follies play catch up like the pp mentions!

    Don't lose hope- I had nothing measurable on day 12 or on day 15.  Then on day 21, I felt something going on down there and went in for one more ultrasound (this is the day I was supposed to start provera to end my cycle) and, sure enough, there was one mature follicle and I triggered that night.

    This is just a femara + ovidrel cycle, so different than injectables, but I am obviously a late responder.
