Ask:
I am currently doing my first cycle of IVF. I have done 5 days worth of stimulation drugs and my doctor is concerned that I am not responding well. I had 6 or 7 follicles today, but they were only 3 mm. Is that bad? Has anyone else experienced this and still had a positive outcome? I am using Bravelle/Menopur. Help encouragement, similiar experiences would GREATLY help me! Thanks!
Answer:
It may be too late for this cycle- but even on enormous quantities of Gonal-F I do not ovulate until day 18-23 and even then with only 2-4 follicles that are good size--- so don't worry-- just keep pressing on- if they grow- evne if it's slow-- it's okay-- they are still there-- push your doctor to let you try...
