Had my first egg retrieval on Friday!
I’m in a country that doesn’t put you under for the procedure but uses twilight sedation. I was terrified by that thought but honestly, it was totally fine. Today is day 4 and I’m finally starting to feel less bloated and uncomfortable.
Age: 40 (41 next month)
AMH: 15.3 pmol/L. (2.13 ng/mL)
10 days of estrogen priming
Rekovelle 15
Menopur 225
Cetrotide
Triggered on day 10 with 2 shots of Decapeptyl and one shot of Pregnyl
Used ICSI and Zymot
We had 14 eggs total retrieved
8 mature which was a tad disappointing for the number of eggs retrieved.
But then all 8 fertilized!!
Now for the agonizing wait for the day 6 update, and again for PGT testing if any of those make it.
Anyone else playing the waiting game right now? What are you doing to stay sane?
