I felt like I had mild OHSS but I wasn't diagnosed with OHSS. My ovaries were enlarged for 3-4 months, but I'm not complaining because I am happy with the outcome.
Good luck everyone!

eco-friendly - Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I feel much better about triggering with the full 10,000U after hearing your story. As of this morning, I only had 7 follicles that were in the desired size range (out of 19 total). I'm hoping that some of the other stragglers will catch up by my ER on Thursday. Congratulations to you on your success!  You must be so excited. Hearing stories like yours give me hope.
