Egg collection with only 3 lead follicles

I have PCOS and going for a sibling cycle. New clinic this time round and had some concerns but they justified why they wanted to start on low dose as I had lost significant weight. I was started on 150 Meriofert and by day 7 or stims I had two larger follicles around 13/14, 1 at 11 but the remainder about 8 and hadn’t increased in size. Increased to 225 and waiting to see what happens but I’m trying to think of all scenarios in advance to be prepared. If we only had like 3 larger follicles would you even attempt egg collection?

We would get a small refund back but would not be able to afford another cycle so it will be final if we don’t. It’s been so hard for me as well and I just don’t think I can go through it again.
