Thanks everyone, that's very encouraging! I've always been under the impression (for whatever reason) that if my follicles don't hit the 20mm mark, I may as well start planning for the next cycle. I think I need to work on being positive!

Those sizes seem fine to me. I got pg with twins with 17,17 and 18 mm at the time of trigger and then again this past time with only one follie that was 16 or 17mm (we didnt measure it the day of) at the time of trigger. You dont want them too big. Good luck!

I have 4 year old twins and they are a result of Repronex & IUI. The cycle they were conceived, my RE had me trigger when I had 3 follicles... one was 15.5mm, one was 14mm and there was one that was 13. Turns out it worked that cycle, and here I am with twins. That's only my experience, but your follie sizes seem like they would be just fine to me! Best of luck!!

Hi Blondie,

Can tell you that this is the usual normal size for mature follicles, and hope you get your BFP!!!

Follicle size needed to get pregnant?

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:46:31 -0600

Hi everyone!

I'm 27, have PCOS, and have been TTC#1 for about a year and a half. DH seems to be problem-free, thank goodness! I'm on Metformin (2000mg/day). We did 3 rounds of Clomid and are now on our second round of Femara+Follistim.

For those of you who have gotten pregnant, what were your follicle sizes? My "mature" follies have ranged from 17mm-19mm, and I've always wished that they were a little bit larger and have wondered if this wasn't large enough to (likely) get pregnant.

Also, I just entered the dreaded 2WW. I had a 17.5mm and 19mm this month -- fingers crossed!!!
