Here we are again. Had an u/s this morning and the news was bleak. The Right ovary had stalled - there was no growth in the follicles at all. The left ovary had one follicle that had grown to 12mm, but that was it. After speaking to the nurse - I will call her Ms. Wonderful, we decided to cancel the cycle and try a different protocol next month. They gave me a PIO shot to encourage AF to visit within the next week and we will go from there.
Of course I am disappointed, but overall, I feel good about our decision to cancel. I know my body and I have seen my ovaries stall far too many times before. I am just not going down that road again. So I feel good about nipping it in the bud and moving forward. The new protocol will be the same dosages of Fem.ara and Foll.istim, but we will start the Foll.istim earlier in my cycle, and take the shots more frequently. We will also postpone my first u/s from Day 10 to Day 12 or 14 since my ovaries are lazy brats.
So there it is...blech

Well... I can totally understand your feelings being both disappointed and relieved at the same time. If the cycle was going to be a bust at least you can get going on the next one quicker... Sometimes that is the worst part for me... I can take the fail but then it takes me like 4 months to get going again since AF does as she pleases. Glad you guys have a new plan of attack:)
So sorry to hear about the canceled cycle! Glad you seem to be at peace with it! Good luck with the new protocol!
I'm glad you are not too horribly disappointed. I know it's a disappointment, but you also called this a test cycle, so it did just what it was supposed to - give you guys much needed feedback regarding your ovary performance.
I really hope that you get it all figured out, that you can make those follies grow!
HUGS.
