Only 4 follicles - what are my chances?

I've had two scans since taking bemfola. On day 8 they told me I wasn't responding well and to go back yesterday, which I did and was told I had 4 possible follicles but to carry on with stimms and go back tomorrow.

Has anyone else had so little follicles and had and success, feel so disheartened right now!

Thanks Button, I've low AMH too (5.3). How did you find egg collection?

When do you find out if any fertilised?

Wishing you lots of luck xxx

My amh is 4.3 this is my 3rd cycle. First go I got 2, second go 7 and this time 6. EC has always been ok for me, this time I wasn't even fully sedated due to allergies. I had the call this morning to say 2 have fertilised and I am having them both transferred on Mon X

Round 6, I only had 1 follicle! 1 perfect egg transferred on day 2 and it worked, so 4 follicles is better than what I had!
