Currently on CD17, first medicated cycle...

50mg clomid days 2-6. A few tracking scans last one on CD14 showing 2 mature follicles at 17.1mm and 17.2mm then two others one at 15mm and one at 16mm. Told me to cancel the cycle due to risk of multiples but advised them I wasn’t prepared to do that at £300 a cycle! I understand the medical issues associated but I couldn’t risk not at least trying! They agreed to give me a trigger shot and advised to administer it myself that evening with the view that I would ovulate in 36 hours roughly! I’m now up to 48 hours after the trigger shot! They also saw two hormonal cysts that are large but they weren’t overly concerned! Been Bd’ing for last few days now. I am stressing now that the trigger shot hasn’t actually worked and I haven’t ovulated! I’ve tested with opks since the trigger and all are peak but that’s likely to be the high level of HCG in my system.

other than a progesterone test 7DPO I have no other way of knowing if it did release or not... suddenly a tww has turned into a 3 week wait! It’s positive news that clomid helped me produce four good size follicles and the clinic stated I responded well to the medication!! Just hate the waiting game and trying not to overthink!

any words of advice greatly appreciated, did a HCG trigger shot not work for anyone?

Thanks
 
I've never heard of the trigger not working.
Well done for not cancelling cycle. because not all follicles contain a mature egg.
although please bear in mind the risks of twins.

keep this page updated x
 
Thank you. No way was I cancelling the cycle, a lot to go through to not even try and totally agree with you that not all the follicles will have a mature egg and this was the basis I made my decision on. Discussed the possibility of multiples and would be ok with this if it happens. I understand the risks but would have not felt right not to try.

will definitely keep you updated x
