So went for my scan this morning before I go in for my egg retrieval on Tuesday and there wasn't any follicles in my left ovary? Only had them on the left ovary?

Has anyone had this? Apparently this is normal and everyone is different every month?

I've to do my booster on Sunday night!!! 😁

I've never had ivf but on my last iui I had all 4 follicles on my right ovary and none on the left. They also said that was normal. Xx

I didn't have any on my left ovary on my first cycle and on my 2nd cycle more on the right than left X

Hi NG13. How many follies did they say you have on the right ovary?? As long as you have some there to collect then there shouldn't be any problem! :) Obviously having both ovaries in action would be desirable, but it CAN be done with one. (If the increased dose doesn't work they may consider abandoning the cycle, but only if there aren't enough follies on the right).

It sounds like a bit of a wait and see case. Don't despair though, because lots can change in a short time. Try not to worry too much. Although I know how tense this all can be. Good luck, hun XX
