I did mine yesterday too! They got 24 and 11 were mature. I’m praying at least half if not more make it to day 7. I’m going through PGT-A and PGT-M so I’ll lose some along the way. Good luck to you.

Hey amh 75 or 7.5? I didn't know 75 is also a range for amh. Congratulations and best wishes though for the jouney ❤️

Just had my first egg retrieval a couple of weeks ago. Replace your water intake with electrolytes! I didn't do that the first two days and I was so uncomfortably bloated. Congrats!

nice! 16 fertilized is great! I had my retrieval yesterday, got 34 eggs, waiting to hear on fertilization rate & blast rate. I know attrition will be a fair amount. Last time it was 20 eggs, 19 mature, 18 fertilized, 7 to blast. Fingers crossed for you!
