Need Interpretation Of IVF Protocol
I am currently undergoing an IVF protocol with gonal f and menopur and on day 6 of protocol, after 5days of stimulation i have a formation of 1.8/2cm on my right ovary which i am trying to understand if it is a follicle close to ovulation or a cyst. I had blood tests done and my estradiol level showed 58 pg/ml and LH level 8.2 mUI/ml. I do not know if these are low enou to consider that it is likely to be a cyst rather than a follicle close to ovulation. Can you interpret in any way? Thanks

Welcome to health care magic.
1.A cyst is any thing more than 2.5cm.
2. The 1.8 and 2 cm are dominant follicles.
3. The follicle are good any where above 13mm, 1.3cm for ovulation - which are good in your case.
4.Once the follicle get ruptured and free fluid is seen in the plevic region - the procedure is done.
5.So depending on what procedure is planned. Accordingly it will depend.
Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask.
