How many eggs did you get from retrieval?

Question

Hello. First time ivf I am currently doing stims only on day 2 of those. At my baseline they said they could see 18 small follicles on one side and 19 small follicles on the other. My first monitoring appointment is Thursday. How many eggs did you all get retrieved? I’m fear of super bloat and ohss if the majority or all of these eggs mature 😬

Answer

Round 1: AFC 8, 10 retrieved, 9 mature. 
Round 2: AFC ~22, 11 retrieved, 10 mature. Obviously all aspirated. 
Round 3: ~15 AFC- TBD (stims day 5) 
Eat salty foods and drink plenty of electrolytes. Your AFC won't always correspond to what you have retrieved. Based on your numbers, though, you'll likely be uncomfortable so just take it easy.

Answer

25

Answer

I forgot to ask at my baseline 🙄 20 retrieved, 15 fertilised, 6 blasts. Fresh transfer converted to freeze all due to high OHSS risk. Just waiting for my FET planning now. Not sure if I actually did have OHSS but I certainly felt rubbish for a few days and not back to normal until my period came.

Answer

They retrieved 32 eggs, and 22 were mature. I had bad abdominal stitching/cramping (like the feeling when you run too quickly) for about 3 days. Your doctor should be able to gauge your OHSS risk based on your estradiol levels closer to the retrieval date too. Good luck! ❤️

Answer

I ended up having 63 retrieved and 48 mature.., I didn't develop OHSS... but I didn't feel good for almost 4 days

Answer

I ended up with 13 eggs retrieved, 11 mature, 10 fertilized, 5 blasts, 4 PGT normal. It was my first ivf cycle and I’m awaiting transfer in a couple months. My baseline ultrasound had 16 follicles.

Answer

Baseline: 16 follicles
Retrieved: 16 eggs 
Mature on day 1: 11
Mature on day 2: remaining 5
Attempted fertilization via ICSI on all 16, but only 11 fertilized (including all 5 of my late maturing ones)
Day 5 blasts: 9
PGS normal embryos: 4
