My follicle didn't grow ):

At CD 12 I had a dominant follicle at 9 mm. FS told me to come back today at CD 15. It was still at 9 mm. Never grow at all! Anyone had tis prob? He has scheduled me to come back on Monday at CD 19. If it's not at 18 mm, I won't be able to do my IUI. Anyone out there had a very slow growth but managed an IUI?

I was only prescribed to take 50mg chlomid and a trigger shot to be taken upon a visible 18mm dominant follicle. So it all depends on Monday's u/s now. Wow! Thanks for lifting up my spirits with that success story :)
Do send my heartfelt congrats to your best friend!

Hey babyhope - PCOS became quite a common problem now a days, so were you just taking clomid or any shots too? I have a success story here, my best friend had a beautiful baby girl 2 weeks ago and she suffered with PCOS too, clomid didn't work for her, she took few tummy shots to develop follicles and that lead to success, so your turn comes soon, trust me, dont be disappointed just with this one, long way to go.

Is it true that if you are on chlomid, ovulation gets delayed for some? I have PCOS, so does that have anything to do with my slow growth? Thanks for taking some time to answer :)

It does sound like slow growth, hope it picks up, otherwise, FS might have to increase your meds does in the next cycle and may push for fast growth. Don't worry!
