Slow growing follies

Hi all,

I know there are a couple of ladies at a similar stage as me. I have been injecting for a week and had two scans now I have 11 follicles altogether ATM but was told they are growing slowly so depending on how scan goes Friday I may have to have more Menopur and Cetrorelix me be rescanned Monday ; which was original ec day.

I'm not worried as it was made clear to us that all women respond differently to drugs.

Had anyone else had this ?

Thank you to all for still sharing... I read everyday.

😘

Yes my dosage was increased and i had to inject for two additional days. Ended up with 5 eggs and 2 fertilised.

Yes, I had slow response on the first few scans, even with the strongest of Gonal F dose, but they did have a growth spurt a bit later and I ended up with 8 or 9 eggs, 6 fertilised, 5 blasto, = 1 baby...

So hopefully things will improve for you. Let us know how it goes xx

My dosage was increased after the second scan. Also had an extra shot on the day of the last scan and also the follicles grow a bit with the trigger aswell.

Yes nothing to worry about! I was a slow responder with both my cycles, trust them they will get you there 😊Slow and steady! I had another 3 days on menopur . Good luck x
