Hey,

It's my second cycle if ivf, I'm on Bemfola 225 iu and it's day 4 of my cycle. Last time I was on Gonal F 150iu. Was wondering if it will produce more eggs now.

Just wanted to ask anyones dosage, the name of their ivf medication and the egg result, home many were retrieved?

@hoowhoo I've experienced ivf too and im doing mild ivf which is all about quality over quantity so i know it only takes one egg but for me as I said one of my ovaries can not be access so eggs will be left behind so the more eggs they can get from the other ovary the better as hopefully one will be a good quality. Disappointment is a natural feeling its OK to feel that with this so we process are feelings in a healthy way.

Hi Op, as someone whose done ivf its quality not quantity. Don't obsess over numbers and potentially set yourself up for disappointment - it just takes one

@SH998 thanks.

Sounds like Bemfola worked well for you. I have my day 7 scan in Friday. I'm hoping I make it to a day 5 blastocyst. Last time I had one perfect 8 cell no fragmentation day 3 embryo and it didn't implant. So hope I get better news this time. I found the embryo wait to know how they're doing tough.

Hi there
I started my first round on 150 Meriofert, with 8 follicles but by day 7 they appeared to stop growing, so they increased my dose but next scan follicles had reduced and was aborted.
Second attempt they changed meds and upped the dosage to 225 Bemfola which worked wonders, they managed to retrieve 14 follicles, 7 fertilised and 2 made it to 5 day blastocyst.
Wishing you all the best xx

So had my day 5 scan and seems like Bemfola 225iu is reacting well, more eggs than last cycle with Gonal F 150iu. The nurse was like it's too early to see much now and we did.

This time:
14 follicles, 8 on right side and 6 on left side. Vary is size 13mm to under 6mm.

Last time 6 follicles, only 4 on right and 2 on left side.

I have a fibroid blocking the left ovary from the ivf instruments so really need the right side to do well. Have 4 more than last time on the right.

300-325 pergoveris/gonal f - usually 11-13 eggs. Amh 20.7.

My eggs are poor quality though so never more than 2 blasts in 4 rounds, whether 8 fertilised or 4.

My first cycle was like 10 days of gonal f. The doctor said they will increase the dosage to get more eggs next time. I've seen women do the same amount of days and get loads of eggs so I wondered if a higher dosage was to do with it. Of course our bodies all react differently too, plus age, AMH and cycles varies.

I was on 300 of Gonal F and got 8 eggs, 6 fertilised. My amh was 6.3.

I don't think it just comes down to medication doses always though.. my doctors put me on the lowest dose possible and it stimulated me incredibly. Produced 45 eggs, 30 mature, 24 fertilized and 23 remaining embryos at day 5.

On another person my dose could've resulted in 1 egg. It really varies with your body's reactions I think.

The successful one was 5 oocytes, the unsuccessful were 2, 1, 0

KitchenSupper · 01/11/2022 20:27

I can’t remember any more but as they increased the dose each cycle, the number of oocytes decreased. The successful cycle was 75 every other day plus clomid or something similar.

I did 2 rounds of Bemfola 225ml and got 14 eggs both time (AMH of 11.9)
