Hi,
My follic always grow slowly,,only 2mm a day,,,is that growth ok?
My RE looks upset when on seeing the folli size and then she injects me,,,,then it grows,,,at average it is showing 2mm a day,,i know that is ok,,but i will the egg qulaity be good after injections, on every other day?
One more thing,,,will the other follies also mature day by day, after administering the trig shot?

Follicles usually grow 1-2 mm a day, about 1 mm a day in the beginning of the cycle and 2 mm a day once you get closer to ovulation...so your progress sounds normal to me :-)

As for the trigger shot, the follicles will continue to grow for another 36 hours or so until you ovulate, so they will probably grow an additional 3 mm before then.

Good luck, Sri!

That's the perfect growth rate.  You don't want them growing too fast or they won't be mature.
