Ovulating after Follistim with no trigger shot
All my history is in my siggy to help keep this short.
I've been taking OPK's since last Monday, two days before my last u/s. Monday night and Tuesday morning was almost positive, but not 100% there. Ever since, the line has gotten lighter and lighter. Now this mornings was practically blank. I had a good amount of cramping and bloating from Tuesday until Saturday, so I'm wondering if maybe I already ovulated...? Would they have been able to see that in my last u/s? My RE said I would ovulate on my own and I would feel it, so I'm wondering if the cramping I had was from me ovulating or from the injections and the follies growing. I'm not taking a trigger shot but I'm worried, if I haven't ovulated and I don't, that those follies will turn into cysts.
I'm waiting on a call back from my RE but just wanted to see if anyone here has any experience with this.
