Well I just finished my first round of clomid and trigger, when being monitored my re had me come in every two to three days after taking my last clomid pill for bloodwork and ultrasound. They are trying to see how you responded to the clomid how may eggs you have and how they measure in size. Most re wants there patients to trigger once the eggs reach about 20/22mm. I had 10 eggs on each side started taking clomid on May 11 finished it on May 15 (cycle days 3-7). I triggered Thursday May 19 they say you ovulate anywhere from 24-36 hours after, could be 40 hours for some. On May 19 when I went and had my ultrasound out of twenty eggs I had three mature that was 22mm so my re had me trigger that night.

At this moment I'm 17dpo currently awaiting the arrival of af, going to me re todaybto have bloodwork done to see if I'm preggo indeed and if not to see where I'm at in my cycle...

I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
