First time here. I am starting injectables and IUI in about a month. I have PCOS and have at least 20 antral follicles in each ovary. My doctor plans on starting very slow (low dosage) with the Follistim so that I don't produce to many follicles. Dr. Q and others, about how many days should I expect to stim? I was told up to 15 days. Does this seem average in my case? Oh, and I am 31...don't know of any other problems.
Thanks!

Yes, about 15 days is the average.. Although with PCOS and/or multiple follicles, it makes things a little more difficult, caution may be taken by your RE, and thus may take a little longer so that only a few follicles are made, and not an excessive amount
