Have your clinics tested for Estrogen during your IVF stimulation and what results are concidered normal?

Yes. First clinic tested daily. Second clinic after about 5 days. Not sure what is normal but the clinic will flag it up if it is too high. My estrogen was sky high both times so they had to reduce my stims doses.

Mine was tested but I never asked what the level was or if it was normal. I know the clinic like it to be under a certain level though and if higher they give you medication to reduce the risk of over stimulation.

Mine did in the run up to egg collection. I think typically level was 1,000-4,000. My last one was 13,000 and I had mild overstimulation which was horrible compared to previous ec. Don't know what severe must be like!
