Follicle Size???

[JAR]

Hi
This is my first month of doing IUI - have been put on menopur injectibles. Went for a scan today (cd10) and was told I had 2 follicles measuring 9mm each approx. She also said my lining was looking a bit thin . I explained that my periods last about 13 days and i was still bleeding today. I'm just a bit worried that as it'scd10 already the follicles won't have much time to grow and are a bit on the small side - really don't want this cycle to be a bust!

Any advice/comments would be appreciated.

Hi
don't really know anything about the meds you're taking, but think your follicles should be about 18-20mm when you ovulate, obviously everyone ovulates at different times, so it just might be that you ovulate later and the follicles just need a bit more time to grow. I'm taking clomid and last month when i went for my CD12 scan my follicles were quite small, and lining bit thin, but when i went for a scan a few days later they'd grown and my lining was thicker, i ovulated on CD20 that month.

hope this helps a bit

good luck
xx

At my last follicle scan my gynae said that they usually grow up to 2mm a day, so in 5 days they can grow 10mm!!

I hope that helps.
