Third Follicle Check - GHOST, EVERYONE????

Post by Summer2010 »

I had my third follicle check this morning. I have 19 follicles, largest being at a 14. Looks like I have a couple more days do go before they reach 20...right?
This sounds good right? 19 is good?

My RE said that mature eggs are usually found in follicles that measure between 16-25. Under means they are immature and over means that are overriped. I had a bunch under 10 (at the time of retrieval), which meant they didn't count.

Hi Summer - Love your name 8) My RE is waitng on my eggs to ripen, there are 8 @ 14mm except 2 are 20mm. I was supposed to do ER wed now moved to fri. Now I wonder if my endometrium will not be receptive cause my little eggs weren't ready. Nineteen is awesome. I had 15 retrieved my last fresh cycle. I had went to blast and a bunch didn't make it. I had 2 frozen and used them was preggo then miscarried. So, you didn't go to ER yet ? The eggs can ripen pretty fast was looking @ my old records from last fresh in 2 days I went from 14mm to 20mm. Maybe we'll be cycle buddies :D

19 is wonderful. My clinic likes to see them at least 16 mm to get a high probability of mature eggs.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
