Final scan before collection Wednesday. I have one measuring 25mm on my right ovary and 1 around 14 on my left. I have a few meaty it’s around 12-11 but they’re useless. They asked me to trigger tonight for collection Wednesday. Is there any point? Any success stories or stories in general would be appreciated. Feeling a bit shit tbf.

Hey @PurpleRayne89 hope you’re ok! I only had 2 follicles. Both fertilised, one made it to day 5 and im now almost 22 weeks pregnant. I do firmly believe that sometimes low numbers means better quality. Im pretty sure my one golden egg is the one I would have ovulated naturally tbh! Fingers crossed for you x

PurpleRayne89 · 16/09/2024 20:47

@HopefulllHolly Congratulations, it’s definitely a good news story. Did you have low AMH? I’m 35 with AMH of 4.

HopefulllHolly · 16/09/2024 20:51

Yeah I’m 38 (I was 37 though!) and had an AMH of 3.9. With our AMHs we’ll never get a lot of eggs, but that doesn’t mean it won’t work. ☺️

PurpleRayne89 · 16/09/2024 21:53

@HopefulllHolly Such a scary journey huh. I’m sure your every excited. Will this be your first child?

HopefulllHolly · 17/09/2024 02:06

@PurpleRayne89 Yep my first. We tried to conceive for 7 years before finally turning to IVF.

PurpleRayne89 · 17/09/2024 07:36

@PurpleRayne89 Great news! ☺️

Firefly42 · 19/09/2024 15:24

@PurpleRayne89 that's great news.Will they do a 3 day transfer or only day 5?I'm due to start stimming again on Tuesday.Last cycle was cancelled, so I'll be delighted if we even get one follicle.x

PurpleRayne89 · 19/09/2024 15:38

@Firefly42 Only day 5. I’ll know whether to go into the clinic Monday morning. I hope your cycle goes very well for you. Do you have low AMH?

OP posts:
Firefly42 · 20/09/2024 10:11

@PurpleRayne89 Thank you.Yes have extremely low amh.I had 4 follicles which I was delighted with but one of them basically took all the meds.It was a massive 30mm after 5 days of stims!So cycle was doomed after that.x

PurpleRayne89 · 20/09/2024 11:38

@Firefly42 Sorry to hear that. I have low AMH. The last time it was checked it was around 4. I’m 35. My last cycle I had 5 follicles but only 2 eggs were retrieved. Ended up with one blast which ended in BFN. This is my second cycle. 2 follicles, 4 eggs, 2 fertilised and I’ll get another update Monday which I’m very anxious about.

I hope you made it to transfer day and are now in your 2ww.x

PurpleRayne89 · 25/09/2024 18:51

@Firefly42 Thanks for your message. I made it to transfer. 4 eggs, 2 fertilised. 1 early blast transferred on day 5 and 1 left to culture to day 6 which made it to blast and was frozen. I’m now in my 2ww with an early blast. So anxiously waiting but very busy at the same time ☺️

OP posts:
HopefulllHolly · 25/09/2024 19:10

@PurpleRayne89 Thats amazing! Some women have 20 eggs and still only egg up with 2 embryos so you’ve done well whatever the outcome. When is your test day? Good luck 🀞

PurpleRayne89 · 25/09/2024 19:20

Thanks @HopefulllHolly my test day is next week Monday but I’m busy so will have to do it Wednesday instead which I’m ok with.

OP posts:
HopefulllHolly · 25/09/2024 19:24

@PurpleRayne89 Fingers crossed for you! It’s good you’re busy, the waiting in ivf is the worst bit!

PurpleRayne89 · 25/09/2024 19:49

@HopefulllHolly Thanks, I’ll be updating this thread either way. Yes, it is the worst!!

Awh brilliant news and one for the freezer aswell.Fantastic!x

PurpleRayne89 · 26/09/2024 18:06

Silly me I know 😞
I used a double Zivafert injection Monday 16/9 (10 days ago). I am stupid as I tested today 3dp5dt and got a 1-2 weeks result. I may already know the answer but is this the trigger?? My OTD is Monday next week. I should also add an early blast was transferred…
Weirdly enough, I tested with a test with a sensitivity of 10 this morning and it was negative. This CBD is 25 and did just now. Last time I used a double trigger it left my system 4dp5dt. I think I tested to feel like I was doing something other than waiting around I guess. To be part of the wait and not be the one waiting.

OP posts:
PurpleRayne89 · 26/09/2024 18:07

@Firefly42 Yes!! I’m glad I have one frozen. I also have an early blast, from a previous cycle saved so two in total. At least I won’t have to go through stigma again. I said I’d not do that again as I’ve had enough.
