Hi JennJenn, although I am just completing my IVF cycle I really can't remember what all of those #s means. I'm pretty sure that your lining is a good# because I believe they look for that to be at 10 or greater. The E2 level is your estrogen level...I think??? Please don't quote me on that. But the other #s are the size of the follies that are on your ovaries. I don't know if 6sm means that you have 6 small follicles or not but the sizes look normal according to the number of days that you've been stimming. This was my 1st IVF cycle so I questioned everything. Although my nurse explained things to me, sometimes I had a different nurse call with my results and I had to ask alot of questions to get a clear understanding. So by all means, ask them as many questions as you need to and asked several times if you have to, that's their job to make sure your comfortable with everything and understand everything. I'm not sure if I've seen your name on the other threads but I'm apart of the Oct/Nov thread and there lots of resourceful women there, as well as all over the forum. Good luck in your cycle. I hope you get your BFP! :D
