are they too big??

July 18, 2008

i went yesterday my u/s on cd13. i had 3 follicles that measured 26mm and 1 follicle that was 19mm. is 26mm too big for only cd13? that past couple of months ive been ovulating on cd15 or cd17. my lining has thickened this month to 8cm...YAY! it was 5 and last month 7. but im afraid my follicles are also gonna turn into cyst again like it did before :( im scared to waste another month on birth control if that happens.

please help

Kris- are you triggering tonight??

July 18, 2008

Why didnt they trigger you last night? the follies will still grow until you ovulate. Do you have any that are around 14 or 15 maybe 16 or so?

no, i dont trigger. im only taking my meds, clomid and tamoxifen. i got a +opk yesterday, cd15. do you think that my follicles were too big? im using my gyno that specializes in infertility, i have an appointment a RE in october but until then its all natural ovulation.

what do you girls think?

July 21, 2008

what exactly is too big? and how much do they grow each day?

July 21, 2008

they can grom 1-2 each day and once you get the +OPK you will ovulate between 24 and 36 hours later. I think that the smallest mature is 16 or 17 and too mature is 26 or 27.

thanks chels, i had (3)26mm and (1)19mm. do you think they all ovulated? i wonder if there is a chance that my 19mm ovulated.

July 21, 2008

gosh i would assume they all ovulated - i think that the little ones dont ovulate and thats why we get cysts on some medications (really only the injectables)

So how many DPO are you now babe?

Wishing you tons and tons of luck!!!

i think that im 1dpo. i got a +opk on saturday and ive been hurting the past 3 days now. i was in extreme pain yesterday. do you know if its normal to hurt so bad during ovulation? and intercourse is so bad that i can barely stand it. i tried holding back tears =(

July 22, 2008

its a little uncomfy but it shouldnt "HURT". Maybe you have some cysts causing pain. Do you normally ovulate each month? If not, maybe it hurts so badly cuz you arent use to feeling it - i have heard others say that it hurt while ovulating cuz they hadnt ovulated in so long.

July 22, 2008

hey chels, i ovulate on my own every month on clomid. and i have pain almost everytime. i did have a cyst last month so they put me on birth control. this is my first month back on clomid. we had intercourse last night and it hard so bad. i could feel my ovary throbbing afterwards. i made an appointment with a doc in august so hopefully he will help me more.

*with a new doc

do you ovulate without the clomid tho? How many cycles you been on the stuff kris? Maybe its time to move on to something else???

I hope you are alright :(

July 22, 2008

my first pregnancy was without clomid and my 2nd was while i was taking clomid. so i assume that i do ovulate without clomid. i was on 4 cycles of clomid when i got preggo last. and now this is my 3rd cycle of clomid this go around. so 7 total cycles all together within a year = one pregnancy so far taking clomid.

i called my nurse earlier and im waiting to hear back from her. i have been continuously hurting on all day today. i go for my p4 on friday, maybe they can do an ultrasound to see if there is a cyst.

July 22, 2008

but that clomid pregnancy ended in miscarriage at 6 weeks.

July 25, 2008

how are you doing now kris? Hope the pain is gone - have you gone in for a progesterone test or have one scheduled for 7DPO?

July 25, 2008

hey chels, i am feeling much better. the pain is still there but not nearly as bad as it was. yeah i went today for my p4 and am waiting on my nurse to call back with the results. thanks for asking...il keep you updated!

how are you?
