I had to brave a minor snow squall this morning to make it to my appointment for my estridol check and follicle scan. We’re midway through IUI #2. We’ve been instructed to trigger tonight with the additional instruction to you know….do it. This cycle the only change made was upping the Gonal-F by 50 iu and it’s seemingly making all the difference.
I’ve mentioned before how I really like the level of communication this new clinic has with us. After each visit I check my portal and find all my labs, follicle notes, and instructions and appointments to follow. So today I decided to compare the last cycle to this cycle and was really surprised. Here’s the numbers I have from the same time period during each cycle.
Last cycle This cycle
Day 8 E2 70.6 141.2
Day 8 Follies 1×11 1×10 & 1×12
Day 13 E2. 128 470
Day 12 Follies 1×18 1×17 & 1×18
I feel like while I’m much more exhausted this go around I’m also much more optimistic. We go in Thursday for our IUI and then a progesterone check a week later. There’s another booster this time but I don’t plan on testing because I know now how long it will take to get it out of my system. Here’s to a great week of good things.
Good luck! I hope this cycle works out for you! That’s a nice change in the numbers!
Glad you are having so much more success with this clinic’s communication. I know first hand how much better that feels. Hoping this cycle is the one!
This sounds great! Good luck!!!
