Hi, I’m on my second TTC cycle on Letrozole. I’m CD12 today and had my first scan for this cycle. I’ve been taking 5mg Letrozole this cycle (CD3–7) and I’ll be planning a trigger shot this time.
Last cycle (my first medicated cycle), I was also on 5mg Letrozole and I grew one 15mm follicle by CD13. I was advised TI from CD14–18. Unfortunately, I don’t think I ovulated :( It may have stalled or needed a push with a trigger shot. But at least it showed I can respond to Letrozole initially.
Today’s scan showed I haven’t selected a dominant follicle yet, and the nurse said there’s a “ring of pearls” on both ovaries (typical for PCOS). I felt a bit devastated because I responded earlier last cycle. I know it’s still early and I could still select a follicle in the next few days. I have another scan on CD16 to see if there’s any progress. I’m just really hoping I’m a late responder this cycle. Medicated cycles really put my body out of whack and I feel sore most of the time 😵💫
I’d love to hear some of your stories… what CD did you notice your body selected a dominant follicle on Letrozole?
I’m just hoping to connect with someone who relates to my situation. TTC can feel so isolating sometimes :(
