6 follicles

April 30, 2008

I just came back from my ultrasound. I am on day 6 of stemming and the doctor saw only 6 follicles. I believe two were 8 and 10. I am down because I expected many more follicles. I am 37 years old, what do you think our changes are?

You're still young, but possibility of pregnancy exists :)

Did u conceive kris?

I am only down because the doctor didn't seem too happy. He said he probably wouldn't be able to freeze any either. I just thought I needed much more follies. How fast do they grow, does anyone know?

Good luck and keep us posted!

fingers crossed 4 u kris!!!! what treatment are u using to conceive ?

thanks, we are using clomid. we took it for 4 months last year and got preggo but ended in miscarriage. we took a break after that and this is my first month back on it. i take 100mg day 3-7. i found out today my progesterone is 20.26 on CD20. i believe that i ovulated 4 days ago. i dont take HPK's (are whatever they are called...lol)i just know that i was hurting really bad tuesday in my right ovary. i only have one ovary and tube due to the "wonderful" endometriosis!

good prog levels!!!! I hope u BD'ed 4 days ago!!! Im on clomid too, 5 months now, I have Ovulated 3 times w/ it. Last cycle levels were 19.60. I started IUI w/ trigger shot this cycle, matter of fact I just had it done today. So now im in the 2ww!!! My girl friend has a bad tube too, but the Dr tell her she doesn't need clomid, she ovulates on her own. It's the the point of the egg dropping thru the tube! any advice for her?

oh yes we have been BDing every other night since CD9...lol! i didnt ovulate my first two months on clomid...which sucked. my advice to her would be that anything is possible and not to give up. my doc believes that the hole in my tube has been there since i was born and ive been able to get pregnant twice with it there and we know the egg had to travel down that tube, since its the only one i have...lol! i know that my hole is about mid-way of my tube. he says i have a greater chance of tubal pregnancy...so when TTC every unusual pain worries me. wish her good luck for me and thanks for the baby dust!!

il make sure and update you if or when af shows up =(
