    Help wanted- Follicle size?

    Hello,
    I hope this is the right spot for this.
    We are currently ttc 2 and are on our second cycle of clomid 100mg.
    Today is cd 15 and I had an internal ultrasound today my results were as follows:
    Scan result: endo 7
    Both sides follicles 10-11mm.
    My fs seems to think that I will still ovulate this cycle and that it may just be a long cycle. I am going away next week so I won't be able to have another scan so I have some opks to use. I was wondering whether it is still likely that I will O and what size do the follicles have to get to?
    Thanks for any assistance.

    I think they say 1-2mm a day you want around 20mm so possibly cd 21

    Yep Rach is spot on- they want them around 20mm and grow 1 to 2 mm a day

    so that also works what happenned last time
    11 mm follie x 4days at 2mm a day= 19mm follie when you ovulated

    Good luck

    Thanks so much for the replies! You have all given me some hope!
    Well i guess that I will use the opk's and maybe just bd every second day to get the results I want!
    Thanks again for the info!
