The numbers game

Hey, would love it if you could provide some input! I had 30 follicles retrieved, 19 oocytes and only 9 in the end were mature. What do you think happened? Something suboptimal with the stimulation / trigger timing?

Thanks! Indeed I am grateful for the end number, I just find the drop quite drastic.

Hi. I'm not sure why this has happened but hopefully your consultant will be able to provide some insight next time you see them.

Thanks! It will be my first question but won’t happen until June!

That's a really good number! I had 24 then 10 embryos in the end. I think it's probably just that the follicles/ eggs may haven't been big enough on retrieval?
