IUI

[reesemac]

Hi all, I'm new to this site. I joined because I feel like I'm the only one experiencing infertility (even though I know I'm not). We've been ttc since 2004. Had 3 mc's until I was dx with pcos last year. We started seeing RE Nov. 2007 with  3 cycles of clomid, which did absolutely nothing for me. Went to injectables (menopur). Today was 2nd cycle IUI and I had 3 good follicles this cycle (a first)! I am hopeful this cycle.

Does anyone know if follicles always produce eggs? Just wondering....

Wishing babies for everyone!

Hi Reesemac,

Welcome aboard!  I think you will be okay as the other said.  Try to think positive and try not to worry (it's easy to say) but I can only throw you some sooper dooper sticky baby dust!!

The possibility of mature follies not releasing an egg is increased with doses of 100 mg of clomid or more... If you used HCG trigger shot it, should take care of that tho...

Best of luck to you...

If a follicle does not release an egg it becomes a cyst but that is not very common.

Good luck to you!  With 3 follicles your chances are really good.

Welcome to the forum! I'm also on menopur this month (first month on an injectable). I think it does occasionally happen that a follicle does not contain an egg, but since you had three, I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure you had at least two eggs, and most probably three! Best of luck this month! Hopefully you'll get a BFP in a couple of weeks!!!
