I hope you get lots of nice mature eggs.

I'm refusing to do any mental counts or run any suppositions...I'll know when I wake up from anaesthesia I guess.

So un...Thanks, wow, 2100 pg/ml and 2 mature eggs? So unfair! Yeah, REs sure follow different routes. Mine did mention that a lot of people trigger with 3 follies over 21 mm, but he said that waiting does not make the mature ones with eggs in them lose the eggs, because as long as you are suppressed, you cant ovulate anyway, and nothing happens to the egg while it is sitting in there, and the extra time may give some of the others time to actually grow something. We'll see.<br /><br />No BCPS or any other drugs for me, and I did micro-dose (0.2 mg lupron) CD1-CD3 before I started stims, so yeah, if I ever have to do this again (shuddering at the thought), will maybe be put on long lupron or BCPs or something..Jayhttp://aboutplanb.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-57644621261583551.post-13355323942212405072012-10-31T18:56:18.900+05:302012-10-31T18:56:18.900+05:30Interesting how different docs do different things...Interesting how different docs do different things. My RE would have had me trigger with 6 follicles in mature range (because, she said, you risk losing the big ones if you try to play catch up with the small ones)...but if you've got anything over 14 in the smaller group it could be mature. During my one IVF that led to retrieval, my E2 capped out at around 2100, I think (and that was 7 follicles on ultrasound that yielded 2 mature eggs). I hope you have a better result. <br /><br />I haven't followed the beginning of your cycle...did you use anything (long lupron, BCP, ganirelix, etc) to suppress pre-cycle? If not, that could account for the asynchronous growth. But any new growth sounds promising...I hope you get the best crop of follicles from the two groups!

Jay, I would say 200 pg/ml of e2 per mature follicle (not egg), assuming each mature follicle yields one mature egg.

Roughly 200 pg/ml of e2 per mature egg and this calculation was correct for me most of the time. Still you have couple of days befor HCG so hopefully you might end with a few more eggs. Can't cetrizine or any other anti-histamines help in dealing with the allergic reaction? Good Luck ! : )Fertility Goddessnoreply@blogger.com
