Hi Ladies,

I am 41 years old and have no significant medical history. I am going for ivf and my follicle size after 11 days of stimulations are as follow:

RO:

3-1.8

2-1.7

2- 1.9

Left ovary:

2- 1.5

1 - 1.6

2- 1.8

how are my chances of getting good embryo? Tomorrow, would be trigger shot as per my doctor. My fertility specilist told me good size is between 19-22, and my follicles are not growing as expected, not much to expect. I have already broken down, has anybody got sucess with these sizes?

Hi Mom_Njai. Not too sure what the sizes are in?? You need a leading follicle at 17mm or over, otherwise you may have to stimulate for longer. Hope all goes well. Diane

Hi. Then they are good sizes. Well done! Diane

Hey! I think this looks great. I think all of my follicles that were more than 14mm on the day of trigger were mature on collection, so looks like you’ll hopefully get a good haul there!

Those are better sizes than what I had after 17 days of stims let alone 11 and you've got more follicles - I would have been thrilled with those numbers - seems like you're responding really well. Best of luck ☘️

I find it bizarre your specialist said these were not growing as expected. They seem really good sizes to me. Good luck xx
