Scan update ....our 2 larger follicules have grown & 4 smaller ones are catching up we have the following measurement

20, 18, 15, 13, 11, 10

So doubling the menopur for the last 3 injections has been working😊, another scan in the morning & possible scan Monday or EC..... Any of you lovely ladies had these kind of numbers?

Just been for my scan I have 18.18.15.13.12.8 2 more of poor size. Waiting for a call from the nurse possible egg collection Monday.

At the scan they had this new technique of seeing if the follicles contained an egg which she said showed on the bigger two.

Fingers crossed for you and good luck Monday x

Have you received your call? I've been for my last scan today & they have confirmed EC for Monday, they require 3 follicules for EC above 18 which I have, possibility the others will grow between now & Monday as yesterday I had measurements of 20,18,15,13,11,10

Today I have 3 over 18 & 1 more has grown in 24 hours so meets the criteria so hopefully my others grow between now & Monday , I've been told to do my menopur injection early today as soon as i get home & trigger shot at 11pm. Xx

I got a text message saying Tuesday for EC I have not been offered another scan. I'm on a package deal 2 cycles there is a choice to abandon the cycle before egg collection and therefore not offering me another scan makes me worried as I don't know what changes will happen between Friday and Tuesday! I think I need to call the clinic. Good luck for Monday x

hi, I have been for my second scan this morning and have similar sizes so been told to take my trigger shot tomorrow at 8pm ready for collection on Monday at 8.30. Glad hoping the dose worked for you, it's amazing how quickly they grow isn't it. Mine grew 3mm over night as was only scanned yesterday. Good luck πŸ€

Really that's really good, I was gutted on Tuesday wen they said I only had 2 developing & a few small ones, however they have become bigger in 3 days & my lining has thickened too. I think doubling my menopur has really helped. Hopefully the next 24 hours will help too, i think there going to make a decision tomorrow as either way the nurse said I will have a scan Monday or EC, if they decide to do a scan EC will be Wednesday x

I'm doing everything I can to get the smaller follicles to increase in the next 24 hours, hot water bottles & completing self reflexology..... hopefully helps with growth. Do you know your follicule sizes? Xx

same here. sedation didn't work so was quite sore but they gave me a stress ball to keep my mind off it. After all those follicles i Got 7 eggs so feeling a bit deflated. Made worse by the embryologists disappointment too. Hope yours went better x

They had 10 follicules but only collected 3 (the others were too small) they seemed happy with the 3, however I was disappointed as was hoping the others would catch up. Now it's the wait for the call in the morning, I think il be having ET Wednesday due to low numbers x

will keep everything crossed that everything works out. At least you can keep them safe and give them the best chance. the wait until tomorrow feels impossible. Keep crying and panicking in between stuffing my face with crisps. X

I know I'm looking for films to kills a few hours lol, feel a little tender but ok, can't believe the sedation didn't work for you, could you see on the ultra sound what they were doing? Xx

OH bought me some Disney films to keep me busy for a while but tipping point is working at the min. Oh I know, it's just typical. They had 3 attempts at getting cannula in then called for the doctor to check it and she thought it was ok. Couldn't see the screen, think I was too busy focusing on the sedation nurse who was trying her best to put me at ease and distract me. I googled it and only came across one or two other posts by people it hadn't worked for. x
