how many follicles do you need to boost IUI success?

[jennyfer976]

I had IUI today they said I had 2 follicles mature on my rt. ovary. Doc says they were like 23 and 25mm so they were a good size. Hubbys sperm count was high, modility was excellent, and everything sounded good. I just don't know what they are comparing all this to. I went online and did some research and most sites are saying 3-4 follicles for IUI is best for success. I am just pryaing 2 will do! Any reassurance?

I was using the clomid 50mg pills taken 3-7 of my cycle. Thanks for responding. I hope it works out for me...i am nervous.

Were you using clomid or injectables?? I think that it really just depends on the quality of those two..I've done an IUI w/3 that worked...one with 5 that worked...another with 5 that failed....it's a draw...I think that you have a good chance:)
