Since I will be starting my u/s next week to check follicles, I was wondering what is considered good and what is really good. When I started the lupron my lining was 4 and after 2 weeks it was 5. Will I have follicles starting on tues if I started the follistim/repronex yesterday?? I am so scared that I wont have any at all.....maybe they all dried up in my early 30's!!!! Man I feel old going through this process. I will need botox by the time this procedure is done from all the frown and worry lines. DH said he would pay for it...lol

LOL...Botox! I want me some new booopeys if this 3rd IUI dont work..but he aint budging! On day 5 with (2 days , 3 vials repronex, I got follicles, bout 11 of them and lining started at 3 point ssomething... After 7 nights, 21 vials of repronex, had me 4 size 20's on the right, 2-20's on the left and rest were bout 16 in size...Lining, day by day kept going up and las day of meds it was at 9 point something..They claim good lining, they claim nice egg size and alls I got was, 2 cysts and 1 polyp...Not bad I say! I sure do miss the repronex! just waiting for AF, 2 days ago...Im playing detective trem..chek your email! Its a far shot but I may be right LOL Enjoy your day! Mare...O and I asked bout Redbank Rad, cus I was in there with a girl back in Sept/Oct that was getting die test dune..From Damions office...Could it been you?...Trivia, Day I was there, some young girl was crying hysterical in waiting room and did u eat a valium for the test? LOL

The best size for follies is optimally 19mm. However, the doctor's will give you an hcg shot anywhere from 16-24mm. If they get over 25 mm, they are "overdeveloped" and it's very hard for the sperm to penetrate the ovum. My new RE said they grow about 2 mm a day -- I think.

Mare,

I did not eat a valium the day of my hsg. As a matter of fact, my Dr. didn't even tell me to take an advil so I get the test done with nothing! I definitely would have liked that valium thought. I don't recall a girl crying in the waiting room. Checked my email and nothing.....try again though. You might want to try yahoo!!!(hint,hint)with my posting name.

LOLOLOL gotcha! Yup I was wrong...Ok..so then it wasnt you at Redbank than!! Jus took a long shot!!! Getting ready to go hang with the girls since no AF and no shots start tomorrow..I will have drinks for alll you girls out here!!! Enjoy your weekend! Mare
