I was wondering about follicle sizes, does anyone know?

Question

ok i am on clomid 150 mg and an hcg trigger shot for 6 months and every month for the last 4 i had follicle sizes ranging from 17mm to 25mm. last month i had 6 at 19mm and 17mm. i just went to the re today and had my ultrasound done so i could get my shot and he said my follicle is 42mm.... isnt that a huge? is this a good thing. i am becoming concerned....

Answer 1

I think the bigger the follicle the more mature it is...which is a good thing.

Answer 2

I would clarify with the doctor . . . that definitely does not sound right!

When doing fertility treatments, my doctor always triggered between 18 - 23mm depending on the meds being used.

Good luck and baby dust!

Answer 3

42mm sounds like King Kong of the Follicle world :) LOL

But you know what, if they were concerned, they would have brought you into the doctor's office for treatment. It sounds a little off, but there must be an explanation, and they owe it to you. Call them again in the morning.
