So this morning was my basline. My antral follicle count was 5 on my right, 6 on my left. My estradiol was 15. Everything looked good and ready, so I’m to start stims tonight. The RE called me just a few minutes ago to increase my dosage… she said my antral follicle count was a little lower than they’d hoped (for me with my age they’d hoped for a ton of antral follicles) and they don’t know how I’m going to respond to the medication so she’s putting me on 150 of follistim a day. I go back on tuesday morning for another blood draw to check my estradiol level and from there she’ll decide what dosage I’ll be on.<\/p>\n
I’m trying not to worry about the antral follicle count, though Den was like, “What? That’s it??” I’m really unclear if more grow as you stim or if what you see is what you get.<\/p>\n
Now I need to go clean the living room, wash some clothes (and pads, I’m running out), and then take a nap. Getting up at 7am on a saturday is not really my idea of fun!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
