Hi all lovely ladies!

Been for my scan of day 11, showed two follies only , not that big a size but fine! Doctor said we should wait and watch for further growth and then decide about retrieval! As of yet i heard nothing about IUI from my doc! My question is has anyone of you or anyone you know been pregnant with such low count of follies? And with 2 follies will doctor even go for collection , coz of my low amh may be she would but... Wod they fertilise wod they stick wod i carry them... bundle of things on my mind!

I hope future holds something good for all of us here but i very much want a response plz! Im both positive and part of me is worried๐Ÿ˜”

Hey I would have thought the they would collect what there is xx

Hi I only have 4 visible and they are doing my collection tomorrow. I think as long as there's something there they will collect. Quality over quantity is all I am hoping ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ X

Rightly or wrongly I have been using a hot water bottle not directly on the skin but just trying to keep the area warm so they grow x

My egg quality is sadly not good they only retrieved 1 egg at collection (on full wack drugs) and it didn't fertilize. BUT i have heard lots of storys with just one egg working so dont loose hope! For us we are now going down the donor egg route as it is the best possible way to be parents for us. x

Bloomdyboo highly appreciate your quick response๐Ÿ˜˜ Good luck with your dream of becoming parents!Yes im positive but with loads of doubts and ifs n nots! But would give us this chance of trying our genetic baby coz walking each step in this journey is like climbing a mountain and noone can forecast how close or far we are from the last hurdle! We can try with what we have at this point in time!๐Ÿ˜” Next scan wod be on 14 cycle day! Dont know how long can we try n hope for them to grow? Doc upped my gonal f for two days to 300 from 150!

We only had 1 follicle develop on my 6th round. The egg was perfect. It worked.

Hi Hopeful, like you they initially found only found 2 follicles on me, which turned to 5. They ended up retrieving 3 eggs and 2 got fertilised and transferred. So they might go ahead with it depending on the follicle size. You might just need more stimming. We didn't get pregnant, but it could happen, so try to hang in there!

Oh my God filmgirl, your story is uniquely sweet and comforting to my heart๐Ÿ˜˜ thanks for writing in! It gave me so much hopeโ˜บ๏ธ

Cino thank you dear for your supportive words, I really totally agree , on my day 14 going in for scan and also bloodworks, lets see what comes next! My doc seemed confident about EC last time, only depends on how much bigger they are from last app!Will thank God for whatever the outcome may be , coz trying is only what we can do! Wish you all lots of good luck in your journey of achieving parenthood!

Hi Hopeful2016. Rest assured that providing your follicles are of a size for eggs to get into, however few, they will be aspirated. Fortunately, even will only a few eggs retrieved, success happens. Good luck for next scan. Diane
