hi I went for an internal scan on Friday so see how my follicles on measuring and some was 14.8mm and 12.6mm my doctor said they need to be 17mm so I have to stay on my gonal f and cetrotide till Monday when I go for another scan to see if they are at the right size. The doctor said they should grow 2mm each day? Then if everything is ok I’ll do my egg collection on the Wednesday. Any advice on anything that would be great thank you ❤️

this has happened to me, twice - carry on with the meds and drink plenty of water / apparently that helps them grow! Good luck x

I had a similar experience - the extra days were just what they needed to grow that extra bit for egg collection to take place! Wishing you the best of luck x

Hello, mine were like that and then they got to a good size! Up your protein (specially eggs) down with fats and carbs, with a lot of water! Rooting for you 🤞
