Had my scan today so see how I'm responding to menopur. On my right ovary I have 1 at 11mm and 6 at less than a cm and on my left I have 2 at 1cm and 7 at less than 1cm. Nurse said numbers were good but she wanted them to be larger so menopur increased to 4 powders a day from tomorrow. I think the numbers are ok but disappointed in the size just hope they mature before my next scan on Saturday and aiming for egg collection on Monday if I respond to the increase. Cant help but feel a bit deflated now 😔

Thank you, I'm feeling more positive today and as my hubby said this is why they do the 6 day scan so they can adjust meds if needed xx

Fingers crossed the increased dosage will help them grow by sat 🤞 what do u mean by 4 powders,? I'm starting menopur but all I know is it's 375 iu.

Each bottle of menopur is 75 iu and I have gone from 3 bottles 375 iu to using 4 bottles which is 300 iu xx

Good luck with your cycle 🍀
