Hi Sarah, how's the u/s? Hope evreything went well. I have the feeling this will be your month :). Good luck!
 
Sarah good luck!


I should be getting my results today and I can't wait to find out...although I will have no idea what they mean..hehe :haha:
 
just got back from my ultrasound.....I have 17 follicles!!!!!! :happydance::happydance: they said I have had an amazing response. Sizes range from 1.0 - 1.5. I have to take my same dose of Gonal F and Repronex for 2 more mornings and in addition start Ganirelix tonight and tomorrow (that stops me ovulating) then go back Thursday. Hoping the smaller sized ones 1.0 and 1.1 continue to grow, I have 5 that are 1.3 and higher already so those should be good.

My FSH was 4.8 on day 3 so thats good. Also I asked this nurse about my AMH of 9.18 and she said for my age its very good and she would actually expect it to be around 5 (higher is better). Im so hoping that because all my tests are good that my problem has been something simple like a hard egg shell and so this will work for me. But of course nothing tests for egg quality and we will see how that is next week. [-o<[-o<[-o<

WOW!! Sarah - that is amazing!!! I hope that you have alot of fertilized eggs to choose from and there are lots of left overs for freezing!! What a great way to start your IVF cycle!!

Clinic just called, they want me to reduce my Gonal F from 300 to 250 as I have lots of follicles and my e2 level is 3760...its not too high but they want to be careful. Hope the high e2 means lots of good eggs :happydance::happydance::happydance:

thank you Im happy! when I went in there the doctor put in the ultrasound and asked 'what dose is she on' and I was thinking oh no, she doesnt see anything, but then she said 'as theres lots going on here'!! such a relief as my last 2 monitored cycles with clomid and 75 gonal f I only had 1 follicle so was worrying about not responding.

of course all the eggs could be bad but so far so good!

I wonder if the coq10 helped? also that she has given me Repronex in addition as that has LH and FSH, not just FSH.

When is your projected EH?

sorry what is EH??? I only know ER and ET! I go back on Thursday so theres a possibility of triggering that night and ER on Saturday. Or they will make me stim a day or two and so it could be Sunday or Monday. Its great as hubby has all those days off :happydance:
 
Way to go Sarah!!!!!!!!!! See? I knew you would do well. Can't wait to hear how many they actually collect and fertilize...you are doing GREAT!!!!

thank you LL :hugs: Im being realistic as I know you had many eggs and were able to have the testing to find only 1 good, who didnt make it. It will be interesting to see how mine do, but not having the testing done here theres so much less info and I will just have to hope for the best. GF didnt have as many but perhaps hers were great quality.

how are you doing, do you think you will try another IVF in January? were you on a combination of FSH and LH products for your first IVF? I only learnt about the LH part when she added the 75 Repronex with the Gonal F. I remember you were on a lot of meds so I cant remember.
 
Great news Sarah:thumbup: You'll do fantastic theres lots of eggs to work with:happydance:
 
Wow Sarah that is amazing, you should get to a 5 day transfer with that many for sure!!!! You must be over the moon x x
