morning ladies!
peggy,
rightfully indeed no need take so much la.
but my friend did that so ..
Yes, its like half-boiled eggs.
those doing IVF do take that much of egg-whites other than protein to reduce the bloated-ness encountered (to prevent OHSS) (as they need to harvest as many follicles to extract them - this process is known as ER)
queenie,
18.9mm at cd12?
wahh.. that's a fast grower!
usually people's concern on ovulating early is worried the follicle not matured enough.
but your size looks good though.
in depth will have to ask the gynae.
i know of some who O early but yet reach an optimal size. thus cant fertilized properly.
the pain i encountered during HSG was slightly worse than AF cramp (then again, i don't really have bad cramp during AF so i guess the pain encountered should be quite mild to most)
after a while, the pain go off.
anyway, you wont have chance to go for it coz you will strike this cycle!!
