I would have to look at my records to give you my exact sizes with my follicles, but i can tell you what i remember. I went in and they had to extend me another 5 days because my follicles were slow-growers. At my last ultrasound before retrieval I had about 10 follicles greater than 18 and two 17's. My RE looks at the size being greater than 18 as well as the estrogen level. We had hoped to get 12 eggs at retrieval, but only 7 were mature. Although that is a low number, 6 fertilized with ICSI. They definately want you to have more than 4 large follicles.

Anything above 17 is good for the final ultrasound before the trigger,becuase the hcg trigger makes them more mature.Some 15mm also may contain mature eggs,but it depends.

Our RE wanted to see them somewhere between 20 -25. I think anything over that is considered too mature.

I guess everyone varies a bit. I had several ove 20 - trying to let some smaller ones catch up. My 1st RE said anything over 18 is good for trigger, b/c they will continue to grow. So - 18 is the magic number for me!
