Hi Anna
You didn't mention the measurments of the follies. To my understanding a follie above 14 mm usually has a mature egg. Even if one or two follies grow you will have a good chance. At my cycles after stimming they went to EC when one of the follies reached about 21mm. Difficult decisions I ...

I am so sorry, I confused you with someone else. As far as therapy I really hope you continue to try to get that appt. Esp if your husband is willing go as well. It also might be a good idea for him to go on his own.
A ray of light will shine. we are here for you

Debra i'm so sorry to hear the news. It must ...
