What are the chances you release a good, viable egg?

Hi guys. I just came from the doctor and I have one mature follicle measuring at 20mm. He said a couple of more days until my surge and then we will do my first iui.  I can't help but be disappointed that i only have one follicle while being on clomid. He has not shown any concern. I guess it's okay. My husbands SA was more than okay.  My question is...even though you have a mature follicle..isn't there a chance that the egg that is released from the follicle won't be a viable egg allowing fertilization?  Is this why they say iui on the first shot isn't likely?

One follicle with at least 20 mm sounds right on target.  You can trigger shot to make sure u release if you don't want to wait for surge.

Don't fret too much.. it only takes 1 good follie to get pregnant!

The last time I did clomid, my second cycle only produced on mature follicle and one other follicle that was a little under (17 mm I think), and I ended up getting pregnant with twins!

i am not really sure.
I did IUI this month with clomid+HCG.  I have done clomid for 6 cycles already and usually only have 1 or 2 dominant folicles.  This month i had two 22 and 23 mm - had HCG and then IUI the next day followed by DTD 12 hrs later.
GL to you.  Fingers crossed!
