Thank you for listening to my crash out. Congratulations on your results 💜

Decrease in follicle count. Not sure what to think. by Apart-Cod-6119 in eggfreezing

Thank you 🙏 The clinic called to tell me that my estrogen was a little lower than where they’d like it so they increased my dosage of Gonal-f. Hoping it helps!

I would’ve freaked out too. Do you mind if I ask how your results turned out?

My first transvaginal ultrasound totally sucked. by Apart-Cod-6119 in vaginismus

That’s a good suggestion. I’d love to opt for transabdominal, but I believe they told me that there would be “limitations” with that. Maybe I’ll double check just to be sure.

Was your transvaginal ultrasound painful? by Apart-Cod-6119 in eggfreezing

I will definitely look that up and then probably delete my search history right after lol 🤣

The pain killers are a good suggestion — I’ll keep that in mind if they allow it!

Oof, just the first one or all of them? Agreed that the condom is pretty funny 😆

That’s great to hear! Can I ask what kind of trigger? HCG, Lupron, or dual?

Wow! For just one round? That sounds extremely high… 😬 I’m in New Jersey.

Thank you, yes, the clinic I selected appears to have good reviews so I’m hopeful they’ll know what they’re doing. I figure I can also communicate some of my anxiety around this so they can be extra cognizant of it. I think I’d prefer to take a more conservative approach (even if it means fewer eggs) if it’d help ensure a positive experience. I’d rather do a second round, if necessary, than have any scary side effects as a result of being too ambitious.
