So, it's official; they cancelled my IUI because of too many follicles. And they won't let us have sex for fear of multiples.
We are going to talk to the financial counselor tomorrow about converting to IVF. I think we'll likely do it. It seems a shame to waste these eggies!
Wow, yes, if you have that many follies go for IVF! Wow, how many did you say you have??
I have 11 that are larger than 10mm, 5-7 of which are already mature. I'm doing more shots tonight to try to mature a few more. Then, likely trigger tomorrow and egg retrieval on Weds. This is happening so unexpectedly. DH's head is still spinning. And I was hoping to get pg without IVF. But here we are!
As long as we get a healthy baby or two, it will be worth the $ and discomfort (my ovaries are gigantic now)
FirstTry - I've been through plenty of IUIs and 1 IVF, and I'm really surprised that they want you to trigger so soon? My FS won't trigger until my smallest follicles are about 18mm. They won't be mature until they hit about 20-24 mm. So I'm really surprised that they are already telling you that you have mature follicles. I'm not a Dr though so what do I know? Here is to hoping I'm wrong and that everything goes well for you!
If I can recall, they said I had the following measurable follicles:
22mm, 20mm, 19mm, 18mm, 18mm, 17mm, 16mm, 13mm, 12mm, 11mm, 10mm
If we wait one more day, they should each grow about 2mm, right? My RE normally triggers for IUI when you have one greater than 18mm.
