Hi, Dr. Fisch, other docs,
I just called in today to find out that my e2 at trigger was around 467. I had 7 follies at the time, 5 of which were perfect in size. Dr. Fisch retreived 4, and 3 fertilized normally. My tx is tomorrow (Tues). My question is...should I be worried about such a low estrogen level as far as possible low embryo quality goes? I had poor embryo quality last time and had a low e2 level. I am on the LA8e2v protocol.
Thanks,
Stacy

This time the low estrogen is appropriate for the number of follicles you have, so I would not be concerned.

Thanks for responding, Dr. Fisch. Wouldn't each follicle be about 200 of the e2? That would mean that 7 follicles times 200 equals 1400 e2? I know I had 3 good eggs--so would that then be what we count as far as e2? So many questions... Good thing I trust you, good Doc! I will see you tomorrow afternoon at 2:30pm ish.
thanks,
Stacy

150-200 per mature follicle.

Additionally, if you're using Antagon it can cause an artificial lowering of your estradiol level. In reality, it has recently been shown that these antagonists interfere with the test assay so that numbers are less useful than the trend.
