How many follicles did you have...
On Clomid. I had my CD 10 ultrasound today and she seemed surprised by the amount of follicles I had because I am on the lowest dosage of clomid (50 mg). I had 4.

Re: How many follicles did you have...
Did you have 4 lead follies or just 4 follies?
I never had more than 1 mature follie on clomid.

She didn't say. She just said, "wow! i wasn't expecting that many on such a low dose of clomid. You have 4 follies, but she said one was small so she I expecting 3 eggs." Or something like that.
I have a 2 year old who had to come with me today, so it was hard for me to pay close attention.

Re: How many follicles did you have...
You should have a bunch of follicles each month, whether or not you're on meds. Then one takes the lead and matures.
On Clomid, you're trying to get 1 really good one or a few good ones. So it sounds like you might have 3 mature - which is really good on such a low dose of Clomid. It's also possible all 3 might not mature. I'm not sure which CD you're on or what sizes your follies were. Are you triggering? Going back for more monitoring?

I was on CD 10 yesterday when she checked. I am not triggering, and no more monitoring until the IUI.
I guess I was just a little confused because she seemed so surprised by the amount, when i thought that was the purpose of clomid, to produce more eggs.

50 mg of clomid I always had 5-6 mature follies which was a lot. Unfortunately, I never got pregnant on my IUI becasue we later found out we were dealing with MI...
Good Luck!!!!!!! Hope this works for you!!!!

My highest was 9. After that they cut my dosage to 50mg for 3 days and I ended up with 1-3 usually per cycle. Most cycles only 1.
