[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here-

This cycle I am doing a different protocol (EPP) but compared to my last two fresh cycles (this year and both lupron stop) my Estrogen was comparable.

Cycle #1- After 5 days of stims- it was 222, but my RE bumped me up to 300 of Gonal F that night.

Cycle #2- After 5 days of stims- it was 217, stims stayed the same at 300 Gonal F & 150 Menopur

I guess that is why I am confused that he wanted to increase the Menopur to 225. Maybe to help recruit more follicles?[/quote]

On day 5 you're past recruitment. Even if you were to recruit more at this stage, they will never catch up to the ones that are already measurable.  Are you at SG OP?  If yes - I think it's a part of their cookie-cutter algorythm if below X on day Y, then up by Z.  It happened to me even after explicitly discussing with the RE that I am a slow grower based on the records from 4 fresh cycles. [/quote]

OP here- yes I am at SG. Well that makes me sad, so basically I will only get a handful of eggs this time? Maybe 7-8 if I am lucky.

PP, did you stay at the same dose even though you are a slow responder?[/quote]
