That's a hard question to answer

From a follicle standpoint... it's hard to say where you ought to be at any point during the process b/c as females we are all different....
our ages, and diagnosis have a lot to do with it. One thing is for sure... the QUALITY of the eggs is the most important thing. They have to be mature in order to fertilize.
My estrogen started out low, so they kept changing the Follistim Pen doses... until we got it right.
Just be sure to take the meds at the same time... and when it comes time to take your hCG shot, be sure to take it at the right time, AND get it in that muscle GOOD!
