28 eggs, lots of pain, lots of tears, good news for now.
That’s a lot of eggs!!! Good luck!!
I had six last time. I’m trying not to think of the attrition rate right now. I know it’s inevitable, I wish it wasn’t. My mantra is “good news for now.”

Not sure about the mature number. Will probably find out tomorrow. For starters, my hemoglobin and ferritin levels have been low for awhile. I begged to get another iron infusion back in May and wa able to get one. I think that may have been something that helped. 2 months of birth control to minimize bleeding and suppress estrogen. Estrogen was supresssd but I still had heavy bleeding. but hemoglobin and ferritin are no longer being flagged as low. I was also put on Lupron at the end of June to further suppress the ovaries. I started with 300 IU of gonal f and 150 Menopur, then the gonal f was reduced to 225IU. I continued with Lupron during stimulation. I also triggered with pregnyl HCG this time. Last time it was a lurpron trigger.
I still know that some eggs will not be viable. I’m just happy that right now we have more to work with.
17 mature eggs. All fertilized. Only 7 made it over night. Attrition is a bitch.
That’s still good. We had 13 retrieved, 9 mature and 8 fertilized. 4 made it to day 5 and 6. All were BB and CC quality. 3 were PGS normal. Are you doing any genetic testing? We never got day to day updates, just how many finally made it to blast.

Yes, PGS testing. They’ll call on day 6 if they make it that far. Last time they called at day 3 or 4 to tell me none had made it.

I am hoping this cycle is better for you. Good luck with the hunger games.
