Hello, I am desparate for some advice.
I'm currently day 11 of stims in my first IVF round and what an emotional rollercoaster! Firstly the clinic forgot to ring to tell me to up my dose of menopur on day 5. I didn't discover this until I went for my first scan on day 8 and was told I would have to the cancel the cycle due to lack of response. There was lots of follicles (24) but they were all small (5mm). We were completely devastated. Then, after the doctor had reviewed my bloods that afternoon , I got a call saying I could cancel the round there and then or take an increased dose of menopur for 3 days and come back for a scan. I was told at this point that this cycle would likely still end in cancellation. I went for my scan today with no hope to be told I was back on track and I've to come back in on Friday to see if I can go forward with egg collection! I think there were 10 follicles measuring really well and another load just behind.
Now, has anyone been through something like this?? Are the eggs of optimal quality if you were underdosed for a few days? I'm still uncertain if its better to cancel this round and start again knowing what we know now?? Such a a whirlwind and I haven't even got on to the hard stuff yet!!!
Any advice appreciated!
