That's great. What day are you on?
I'm guessing you get between 8-10 of real good quality.Chat Icon



Today will be day 6 of stims. If things keep progressing at the same rate, my retrieval will be early next week. Maybe even Saturday.



I'm so excited for you Lauren!! Chat Icon

Re: 30 follies! Updated AGAIN 08-15-06 (page 2)

Okay, well now I'm confused.

Apparently my estrogen levels jumped since Sunday.

They just called to tell me to stop Gonal F and to take 75 units of low dose HcG tonight with 5 units of Lupron and to come back in tomorrow instead of Thursday for more bw/ and u/s.

My nurse is out of the office now, I don't feel like this is an "emergency" to call the pager line, but I feel a little panicked.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

A high estrogen level can be caused by cysts, which is you have PCOS makes sense. Like I had thought after your original post , some of your follies are likely indeed cysts. I Dont understand or know why the low dose of hcg?? I know the lupron will counteract it so you wont ovulate too soon.

They probably want to see what happens, which follies grow on ttheir own etc.

DONT PANIC!

High estrogen is sometimes a sign of overstimulation, but they can typically control it. I doubt your cycle will be cancelled , they would have told you.

Also, if you see some spotting, DONT panic. High estrogen sometimes cause spotting, it means nothing!!

I will see if I can find anything online for ya

You are probably close to hyper stimulation and they want to step you down. Same thing happened to me 5 days before retrieval.

Don't worry about it. they just want to give your ovaries a brake. They did that with me... a one day breather of no Follustum and then they put me back on 25 units the next day.

Lauren, sounds like they are just coasting you a bit...not abnormal at all for someone who is responding the way you are...

Good luck tomorrow!

Hi girls. Thanks for thinking of me! Chat Icon

This morning's u/s showed 8-9 follies at 18, a few at 17-15 range and lots of little ones 12 and under. My ovaries were so full that the u/s actually hurt. Chat Icon

They are waiting for the bloodwork to come back to decide if I trigger tonight or tomorrow night.

So my retrieval will be Friday or Saturday. Doesn't feel real yet!
