E2 levels high :( will I get to egg collection?

[Amy1122]

Oh I need some hope.. I’m on day 14 of stims... we stopped menopur on day 10 so I am now coasting on only fyremadel. Egg collection was supposed to be Wednesday and then Friday (this week) but both have been cancelled due to my levels being too high. My follicles are looking great, the only problem is that I’m producing too many. I currently have 30. Has anyone had this where they coasted along and still made it to egg collection? I have another scan and blood test Friday in a hope the levels have reduced, if they have I could go in for egg collection Monday. Has anyone else experienced this?

If this cycle gets cancelled, that’s another cycle lost off my funding.

I hope it doesn’t come to that! Good luck 🤞🏻 xx

I can’t see that e2 would decrease as it usually correlates with the number of mature follicles unless they are hoping that some collapse in the meantime?

Normally high e2 just means you’ll have to have a freeze all and a frozen transfer in a couple of months and be monitored for OHSS

I think this is what they’re hoping for because I have 10+ that are over 18mm xx

Amy, drink a ton of water and eat lots and lots of lightly steamed broccoli or cabbage drizzled with olive oil and lemon plus a bit of salt - you need to metabolise some of the oestrogen to get it out of your system and there are chemicals in cruciferous veg that speed that up xx
