CD26: The Injectables

So Monday this week (CD26) I started my injectable medications - Bravelle and Menopur. Thursday I had my first set of bloodwork and my estradiol was at a worrying level: 204pmol/L. Very low for what should have been around the 500 mark. So up, Up, UP! went my meds. When I went today for my ultrasound and more bloodwork, the scan confirmed my fears. I'm not responding to the medication as well as I should; or one could say that perhaps they've gone and oversuppressed me. Not good.

Also not good? I only have 6 follies growing. And my left ovary doesn't seem to be working very well.

Now everything hinges on the bloodwork results from today, and the results for the ultrasound I'll have in another couple of days. I just hope and pray that there are some extra little follies hiding out in there, just waiting to be stimmed.

I'm stressed. In 48 hours we'll know if we're cancelling the cycle or continuing. Fuck.
