Do you know if they checked your LH throughout your cycle? I was reading through my file and during my two other cycles, both long protocol so lots of suppression from the get go, they only checked E2, at least that's all that's in my file. So I'm curious to know if they checked your LH, Dr.McT just keeps talking about starting the Cetrotide when my follicles reach 14mm and when I asked the nurse yesterday about checking my LH she just said we'd see where things were on Friday. I really hope they plan on checking it as every woman ovulates at different sizes

I don't think mine was checked. Ours also had a policy of starting Cetrotide at 14mm.

GOod luck on your cycle!

On both my cycles my LH level was DEFINITELY checked as part of my routine bloodwork every time I went in for a follicle check.

Thanks ladies for your resposes. From the places I've asked thus far it varies per clinic, so do some don't but I'll definitely be requesting it for peace of mind.

No mine wasn't checked until the day after my trigger shot to be sure I responded and produced an LH surge. I think it's smart to check it with each estrogen after a certain point. I'd sure want to know if I'd started to ovulate so I could pull out of the cycle and save the majority of the cycle cost. I'll be requesting it next time even though I don't think it was an issue with my previous cycle. More information never hurts..

Me -29 31 - unexplained poor egg quality. I was told I had endometriomas.....but repeat ultrasounds at other clinics have said no sign of endometriomas. Maybe PCOS-like ovaries, but no PCOS - AMH, AFC are great. No one can explain why my eggs are so poor
