I am considering back-to-back egg retrievals

I'm thinking about scheduling a second egg retrieval right after my first, which is set for Friday, for anyone who's done back-to-back retrievals, how soon were you able to go again? Do you think this timeline is realistic?
 
Back-to-back egg retrievals arent very common, but some people do schedule a second one a few weeks after the first, usually giving their body time to recover, often around 5 to 6 weeks. Doing it immediately or very soon after the first might be tough on your body and affect egg quality. Its best to check with your doctor to see what timeline works safely for you
 
Wow, that's intense! Most people usually wait a full cycle or more between retrievals. Doing them back-to-back is pretty uncommon...definitely check with your RE to see if that timeline is safe

Thanks I'll discuss this with my doctor before making any plans

Thanks, I appreciate the perspective, it sounds like waiting a full cycle is more realistic
