Cycle Day 10

Today I had 28 follicles. 14 on each side. The right side mostly ranges from 1.4 to 1.7 but there is one at 1.8. The left side ranges from 1.7 to 1.0. I think there are probably 8 or 9 that will be retrieved on the right but probably only 4 or 5 that will be retrieved on the left.

Estrogen yesterday was 4,405. Not sure what today's was but given the increase in follicles I would imagine it jumped again. We will find out tomorrow morning.

I was read the "gat*orade" riot act today. Same as last time, drink at least 1 litre a day. Gat*orade or V*8 juice (apparently equal in sodium) but I hate V*8 juice so I will stick with Gat*orade.

I am not sure how I am feeling. I had really wanted to not produce so many follicles this time. But we didn't increase the dose, and actually reduced it considerable as soon as things started to vamp up. Maybe my body just really doesn't want to cooperate. Maybe I will have to accept that.

My guess is that they will try to get those 1.4's to 1.8 before triggering. Given that they usually grow by .2 a day, I would guess 2 more days of stimming before trigger.

I hope that your estrogen hasn't increased too much. You are still doing better with your levels than last cycle, right? I am hoping . . .
