14 days of stims

Hello,
My next scan is tomorrow day 14 of stims. Last scan was 10 days of stims and showed no response! Well 3 small follicles and far too thin lining.
This is my second round of IVF, first round only 2 follicles (ready to go day 7 of stims) but neither of them had eggs in on collection.
Feeling very down, not sure if there is any hope. Last scan the nurse thought it was a definite cancel, however phoned me to go back in after talking to doctor who thought it was worth continuing.
Has anyome had a positive outcome after responding slowly to medication?

Hi I don't have great advice but didn't want to read and run, I am a poor responder - on my last cycle they took a long time but day 14 they were ready but only within the last few days did they shoot up. This time around they are a bit quicker but still not ready at day 9 so I'm rescanning tomorrow

You never know they may have shot up x

@strawberrysummer19 hi, thank you. That gives me some hope that things can change! Good luck with your scan x

@Biscuitsgalore18 yes things can change so this time round I've tried to just go with it until I definitely know - it's hard though
Thank you xx

I was on stims for 15 days before my 2nd egg collection - and it turned out to be one the worked (I'm now 5 months pregnant, although trying not to count my "chicken" until he's hatched!). Like the pp my follicles seemed to grow more rapidly on the last few days on stims.

My previous failed round I stimmed for the standard 11/12 days - they said this time my egg quality was better, which I put down to the eggs growing more slowly on different stims.
