Day 8 scan - poor response to stims

[ColinCat19]

Hi

I posted 3 days ago for advice and so apologies for posting again. I had another scan today. Day 5 scan I had 5 small follicles (around 5mm). Upped Pergoveris to 350.

Today, day 8 scan. 3 follicles (9,7,6) other 2 have disappeared. Upped dose to 450 and will scan again on Wednesday.

Is it worth continuing? Can I continue? There was no nurse or doctor to speak to, just the sonographer.

Really appreciate responses, thank you.

keep going with what your drs say. I had issues then they upped the meds and last 48hours my body did a full u turn and I ended up over stimulating and getting OHSS but from that round had 4 PGT tested embryos so in my opinion was worth it. I just need one to stick to my lazy lining now. Sat in a taxi on my way to the fertility clinic to have a final scan and hopefully transfer tomorrow. Good luck and stay strong you’ve got this xxx

Thanks for replying, I really hope the scan went well and you can transfer! Xx

Thank you 🙏🏻 my lining is 6.5mm Simon paper not great but no fluid and triblaminat so we’re going ahead with transfer tomorrow! I hope this is our lucky year xxx

There is still a chance eggs will continue to grow especially with meds being increased Hope you get better news at next scan

Take care of yourself

Hello lovely,

On my last egg collection at the first scan they could only see 3 follicles, the next scan only 6. I was very tempted to cancel as historically I've always had 12 + and it seemed like this wasn't going well. I decided to wait until the 3rd scan to see and by that one I had 12 and they grew quite suddenly.

You never know xx

Thank you, that gives me hope! Xx

I had pergoveris and on my day 5 scan , we found nothing ,no eggs . I was so disappointed. Dr asked me to go back for a second scan 3 days later to see if there will be any eggs else this cycle will be cancelled . I really hope miracles will happened as I used to have 6-8 eggs during my previous cycles .

[ColinCat19 in reply to Ccrach17]

So sorry to hear that 😢 Did you use Pergoveris for your other cycles? Mine was cancelled unfortunately as the three follicles were growing too slowly

[Ccrach17]

no this is my first time using Pergoveris. I used to have puregon but end up all failed pgta testing (used to have 6-8 eggs) . So this time my dr changed me to Pergoveris but it doesn’t seems good responds . I googled and read some articles saying pergoveris may a bit slower if compared to puregon but I don’t know how truth is this as I have no fact check . Anyway I hope to have miracle in my next scan . Pray for me thanks 🙏

[ColinCat19]

I will pray for you. Please let me know how it goes xx
