    Follicle Growth Question

    Hi Friends,

    I recently had 2 m/c back to back- one at 10weeks and the next a chemical at 4 + weeks.

    I am obviously dying to ttc asap.

    I went to the gyni last Monday and my biggest follicle measured 8mm and then today 1 week later, it is 14mm. I thought they were supposed to grow 1-2mm a day? Why is this?

    When do you think I may ovulate?

    Thank you so much!!
    BIG hug

    Well, that's not far off from 1mm per day. That's average and everyone is different. Typically, a follicle with a natural cycle reaches 18-24 mm.

    Did you do any testing with the 10 week loss?

    Sorry for your losses babycakes. 1-2mm per day is just an average, and you are well within the norm.

    Thanks! I hope I O soon, I am so desperate to conceive

    18-24 seems like such a big range....

    No testing at 10 weeks. It was my first m/c and the Dr's said is so common and natural (etc.). They do not do testing here unless it is repetitive.

    My cycle is always so long. My OPK's dont show anything when I ovulate and because I am still bleeding (2 weeks later), its hard to see what's cm and whats the lining (because that looks very much like the consistency of ewcm).

    Hubby is abstaining and we (as in he) are at 16 days (no release).

    We are 36 and 35 (me) and so I am worried about the O making it to long for abstaining.

    Thoughts or advice anyone?

    Thank you as always.

    If you are still bleeding, your estrogen level isn't that high. When it goes up, bleeding should stop.

    Is there anyway that I can get it up and will it affect my chances of a BFP this month?

    Thank you BIG time!

    That abstain needs to stop NOW. Never do a longer than 14 day abstain and I never recommend abstain for men over 35 anyway.

    I would have you wait till bleeding stops, then DTD every 4 days unprotected and hope to catch the first egg.

    It's possible to O with spotting (if it was coming from the cervix or just old blood or somethting).
