Yeah, I had double at retrieval (30) what they saw early on. BUT I had a lot so some were “hiding.”

I always have more follicles at the end than I did at Day 2 baseline. I also always have more retrieved than what we see by follicle count. I have heard others on here say that more can pop up along the way. I suppose it varies for each person.

The general rule is that the day 2 antral follicle count is close to the number of eggs retrieved. I'm sure it's possible though.
