More injections??

More injections??

Hi.  I took Follistim injections on days 3-8.  Toady is cd9 and went to the RE today for an ultrasound.  The u/s showed that I have four follicles all measuring 1.3...so my RE told me to take two more days of Follistim.  My question is:  Will more Follistim help those follicles grow to a mature size?  And will more Follistim make me produce MORE follicles??  Please share your thoughts and experiences!!

Thanks for the info.  I am just so tired of taking these injections, I could scream!  I'm a big baby when it comes to needles.  By the way, how many follicles did you have when you were on Follistim and did you do an IUI?

Hang in there.  Follistem is to help the egg mature and grow.  Last month I had to take them until day 12PTO.  You may get some more follicles but they will not mature intime for ovulation.  

Lots of baby dust
