Day 4 Follicle check**update**
Today is day 4 of my stim meds, and my first check in. The saw 4 follicles on my right and 6 on my left. I don't remember the exact sizes of all of them, but I do remember seeing 8mm on one of them. Is this above, below, or average? I felt a little discouraged when I left the appointment, even though my nurse said it was good. Can anyone provide some insight to make this nervous lady feel better?
**UPDATE**
I went in yesterday for my day 8 check and I have roughly 6-7 really good follicles, the largest measuring 13mm. I have a few small ones, that are 4-5mm, but they have been hanging on this whole time. My doctor advised me today that I will extend my stim days by 1-2 days, based on my appointment tomorrow, and that around days 10-12, there is typically a huge spike in the follicle growth. Luckily, I'm not overstimulated or having any other trouble, which he said is a good thing. That moves my retrieval date to Friday or Saturday, which will be good so I can have the weekend to recover.
