ABC IVF - egg collection on Saturday - Too early???

Hi,

I am 36

I had a failed IVF cycle with NHS last year. Went private as no funding left.

I had my scan with ABC harley street in March where they spotted a cyst and asked me to get some blood tests done. And then the clinic was closed due to COVID

I started my treatment again in August.
They put me on Bemfola 100 which I thought was very low. But they assured me that it's the right dose for me and haven't upped the dose. I had my scan today
Follicles - LO - 19 mm, 17mm, 16 mm, 14 mm, 2 10 mm, couple under 9 mm
RO - 13 mm, 11 mm, 2 9 mm and rest under 9mm
I have one more dose of bemfola and centrotide to take tonight and tomorrow morning. Then ovitrelle and egg collection is booked for Saturday morning.

I am worried that follicles are not big enough or not too many. Also, egg collection is a bit early compared to my normal ovualtion days.

Have your experience been similar? Any thoughts will be helpful as I don't want to stress and spend time googling like crazy.

Tbh, I trust them but at the same time I am worried.

Hi there, I am writing to see how you got it with your cycle in 2020. I am currently going through my first cycle with abcIVF and in similar situation. They also started me on a low dose of Bemfola, unfortunately my follicles have been growing very slowly and I need to continue to take Bemfola until day 10, dosage increased from day 7. I haven't even started Cetrotide.
