I had my second scan today (10 days of stim) and they said the follicles aren’t measuring the size they hoped (most are around 10mm or less only 1 at 12mm). Is it even possible for them to reach 15mm or higher in two days? They said based on scan it’s 50:50 between going ahead with egg retrieval or cancelling!
Also any suggestions on what I can do or eat to get them to grow more?
(First time doing IVF so this is all so new to me)
I’m so sorry for the feedback you received. I don’t have much to contribute since I’m also new to the process.
I was on stimulants for 6days and today I had a scan. Dr could pick up 4 eggs and really took time to measure all of them the smallest was 14 and the biggest was 24. Not sure if this is what you are asking but I have no doubt the lovely people here will give you more information.
Sending you love & light in this confusing and difficult time.
it’s just so much to learn isn’t it! I have 26 follicles but the size isn’t what they wanted for most! So was just wondering if anyone knows can they grow rapidly in 2 days… for now I’m thinking best to think it won’t go ahead than to get upset if egg collection gets cancelled!
Hoping everything works out for you ❤️
to a certain extent I think they work coz my doctor said I must continue with injections for 1 more day after seeing only 4 eggs today from my right ovary which had a cyst a month ago and I was on meds for 6 days
Eat copious amounts of protein is my best advice, hot water bottle on stomach (never after transfer though, only during stims) and walks to get blood flowing
this is really useful! I’ll do all three - I was afraid to have hot water bottle but great to hear I can! Thanks so much x
thanks will also try this out
