I am confused. I took femara day 3-7 and had hcg trigger shot (ovidrel) on day 12 My follicles were 21mm -24mm. I am confused as when I have ovulated. according to www.webmd.com ovulation calendar I have not yet ovulated. According to their calendar I should ovulate 10/20/2007 thru 10/23/07. Please help me.

The ovidrel shot should make you ovulate within 36 hours after it gets in your system. I have read that it takes about 12 hours for the ovidrel to reach its peak so you should ovulate in 36 to 48 hours after the shot.

We are not normal. When it comes to ovulation. Just remember that.

I found even with no trigger shots that I did not always ovulate on the same day.
But I do agree that usually the trigger shots have you ovulate in about 36 - 48 hours.

Ovulation is supposed to be 36 to 40 hrs after the HCG shot -this all depends on how strog your HCG shot dosage is...or at least this is what my RE told me during my IVF cycle.

My RE told me, this morning when I had my hCG shot, wait all today and tonight and tomorrow start intercourse for the next three days. So wait about 24 hours and then try for the next three days. So it goes right along with 36 to 48 hours, just another way of putting it. (We're doing double IUI but that's what he told me if we were to take the intercourse route)

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
