Sorry to hear about your headache. I hope you are feeling better now.
You have sure had a rough ride. I am hoping for a much better cycle for you this time. Sounds to me like the stress of the last cycle didn't help the situation. I would have to agree with you, that was just too much for anyone to handle in one week. I am sending you lots of postive thoughts that this month will be much better for you. You are off to a good start so far.
As for me, I got my Estodiol level back. It is at 157, which is up from this time last cycle. The doc is pleased. Wed. I go for a post colital test and determine if there are any mucus problems and decide if we need to do an IUI this month. I am also going to have my next u/s and bw that day. We will get to see how well the follicles are doing. Should prove to be interesting, I am anxious to see how many since this morning it looked like 3!
Great news! You seem to be responding great. That is wonderful news. Are you going to get your bw back today?
I was told by my re that they like to see the follicles around 17-19. 20 they say is on the larger side. Last month my 2 were 19 and 17. Unfortunatly I got a bfn, but I do think that it has more to do with my estrodiol being low. That in turn indicates a less quality egg. I started out slow with the estrodiol last month not going up too quick, then in the 2nd half it dropped and I had to do booster shots of hcg to bring it back up.
I had my appt. yesterday. The post colital test went well, everything looks great. My u/s went well also. I have 2 on the right 17&15 and one on the left 17. My estrodiol is 559 so we did the trigger last night and I will ovulate in approx. 36 hours. They also said I had 3 smaller ones on the right 12&13 that were not there on Monday. Since we triggered last night they will not make it. I have a postive 2 and possibly a 3rd (the one at 15).
Sounds like we are both having great cycles. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Hopefully this is the month.
They just called my estradiol level is 367 I have to continue injecting till tomorrow night and I have an appt Saturday morning for BW and U/S...I asked her about the level I guess anything over she said either 200 or 300 is fine, and that the follicles just need to get bigger, she called on my cell and I couldnt hear her that well..another office called from out of state I guess they share the same system and help with the afternoon phone calls, that was strange...
Great news on the estrodiol level. What day are you on? 6??? You seem to be responding wonderful. I was told by my re they like to see 200 per mature follicle. You are doing great!
My post colital test came back great, so I will not be needing an IUI this month. I have actually never had an IUI, just ovulation induction with meds. The sperm could looked great yesterday and so did my mucus, so they don't see any reason to do the IUI. I am ok with it, if they don't think I need it then they are probably right. Dh had an aweseome sperm count and mobility when we tested in June, so that is not an issue for us fortunatly.
Sat. morning.. I bet you are excited for that appt. I would have to say I would be willing to bet you do the trigger Sat. that would make you ovulate Mon., so your IUI would be Monday, correct?
I have never heard of having multiple follicles and only 1 being released. I have always read and been told that all follicles are realeased at ovulation. Some may be too small to be able to withstand fertizalition, but they are all released. Did you doc tell you that only 1 is released? Just curious, I think I may have to research that one.
How are you feeling? Anxious for your appt. tomorrow?
Are you scheduled for your IUI tomorrow? If so, I wish you the best of luck. You will be in my thoughts!
Everything here is well, just in the 2ww. I am actually very calm so far this month, so hopefully it will keep up. The days seem to go by so fast, my test day will be here before I know it.
