Trying to Conceive
I'm trying to conceive and I was instructed to take Femara for five days starting on cd3 through cd 7. I also started gonal f (75iu) on cd7 and I took that uo until today which is cd 10. I went to the doctor and my follies wasn't ready yet so I was then instructed to take 150iu of gonal f up unitl Wednesday which is cd12. I am do back to the doctor on Thursday to see how many follies I have and the sizes. I'm nervous but overly excited al at the same time. My question is, is my chances of multiples greater because I'm so young?

I also did fertility meds and that is what increases your chances of multiples also genes. If your family has sets of twins (not by fertility meds) than you are more likely to experience that as well. Good luck!!
I'm happy that you are finally pregnant! :) Are you pregnant with twins or just one? I go to the doctor tomorrow morning to see how many follicles I have and I praying that I have at least three or more. Tomorrow will be cd13 of my cycle so I will let you know what outcome is.
currently no children but have been riding the fertility rollercoaster for 4 years.
I have had 3 miscarriages,
two surgieries,
two rounds of IUI both with follistem injections(5 each time) and 1 Ovadril injection each round,
One round of IVF which is (a retreival process consisting of 19 injections of follistem, 4 injections of ganirelix, 1 trigger injection of ovadrel) then I started the progesteren injections, 1 every day so far since the 14th of July.
On the day of retreival they got 23 follicals from me.
On the 19th of July they transfered 2 embryos back into me and I am currently 6 weeks pregnant tomorrow.
On top of all the injections I have had to take thousands of pills in an attempt to concieve.

I know it's because of the meds but my egg count is really really high and that has a lot to do with my age because I'm so young. If I have twins or more then I will be extremely happy!
I have a twin brother and my father has a twin sister as well. There is a history of twins that run in my family but I don't think there's any of my husband's side. So my chances if having twins(or more) is very high.
