So here’s the breakdown👇🏼❤️🥹 🥚In the 10 follicles, they got 8 eggs, one egg didn’t hold up, so they had 7 to fertilize. 🐣Out of the 7 eggs, 4 fertilized. So we have 4 embryos! Crazy. 🌱Now we need to see how many of the 4 embryos mature to the “blastocyst” stage where the egg goes from one cell, to an embryo with hundreds of cells!🤞🏼This takes between 5-7 days 🧬After we see how many mature, they are frozen and sent to genetic testing. Then we’ll know how many, or if we have any at all, t

Eggs and follicles are not the same things! Your follicle is the area surrounding the egg. This area fills with fluid and expands as the egg grows and prepares for release. 🥚 Statistically, the number of eggs retrieved expected from follicles seen on an ultrasound scan is about 80-90%. It is important to remember that there will never be more than one egg per follicle! Unfortunately, when there are lower numbers of follicles, there is a higher chance that the egg is not collected in the follicl
