Doing PGD and getting lowish numbers must be stressful for you. Your Dr is probably the best person to tell you whether you are likely to get more next time or if you are using a different drug regime.
I have only done 2 cycles and had low result first time and so the drugs were upped the second time, and numbers increased.
Thanks for your replies. You both have such different cycles, i guess it's really unknown.
Lily Dust how great for you to have so many eggs on 3rd cycle. Is that unusual? Gemhope are you going to try for another cycle?
Lenny, do you mind if I ask the difference in number of eggs each cycle?
I'm worried my age may have something to do with it.
Well I decided to go ahead, couldnt get out of my mind the 'what if' I didnt do it and cancelled the cycle and that was meant to be the one. We ended up having 4 eggs, rather than the 3 expected. there was a follice that was smaller during scans but they were able to get an egg and from it. From first appearance they all look mature, just have to wait now and see how many fertilise tomorrow. So nervous. i just wish it was day 5/6 and I knew what was happening. I'm like the lights are on but no-one is home, and have been for the last 2 days. I cant concentrate with things like this happening.
Tigerkat, the 3rd cycle does look great, but you know what, we had 2 embies on day 5 from all those little eggs and once frozen the second didnt thaw , the one transfer we got also didnt result in a pregnancy. I dont know if it is common to have such high numbers but I ended up with OHSS, which was horrid! Each cycle is just so different and I guess at the end of the day it depends on which is the sticky embie, not the number fo eggs you produce.
I hope you get your little miracle very soon hun, it really isnt a very fair thing to have to endure x
