Hi everyone

I am new to this site. I am currently going through my 2nd go at IVF, I had my 8 day scan today I have 8 follies, which is not as many as last time but I do have high FSH so didn't really expect to get a lot. But as someone stated, it only takes one.....!!

I went through IVF in July, I got a POSITIVE, but sadly I miscarried. Anyway the doctor says I may be ready for EC on Friday or Saturday, I am very nervous and scared, therefore thought I would post for some support.

Good luck to everyone here...

Hey guys.

Noticed I'm still on the list. Last cycle was cancelled, but I'm going right into another one, so you can list me as waiting for AF...

Good luck to all of you!!

We are on ICSI programme with Lister Hospital - I am sniffing and jabbing and have day 7 scan this Friday. How many follicles should there be?
We are finding it all very stressful but just keep hoping that luck will be with us

Good luck Jane and Lucy - hope you get loads of great follicles.

Just to update everyone, following on from the odd 'thing' in my womb found yesterday at my down reg scan, I have now had a call from the clinic to say that the blood test showed only very levels of HCG which confirm I am definately not pregnant and haven't been. So they think what they are seeing is a polyp (a small growth probabaly benign).

I now have to go for a scan next thurs or fri to see if its still there - if so then its a GA op to have a look at it with a telescope and probably remove it (Putting back ICSI for months). If it has miraculously disappeared, then in theory I can progress with this cycle without too much trouble although the clinic have warned me that its unlikely.

I feel so down - I just can't cope with what feels like one blow after the other..........
