Do follicles shrink?

Is this a non response?

Started estrogen priming after my last ovulation Started clomid nov 24 until Nov 28 Started 300 units of gonal f and 2 vials of menopur nov 26 Started cetrorelix acetate nov 7 On Nov 10 gonal f was adjusted to 225 and menopur was adjusted to 3 vials On Nov 11 menopur was adjusted to 4 vials

Nov 24 (baseline) - estrogen was 149. 2-3 follicles under 10mm on right ovary. 21mm cyst on right ovary. Left ovary is behind a fibroid so they haven’t been able to see it yet this cycle

Nov 29 - estrogen 419. LH 26.4

Nov 30 - estrogen 397. 5.9mm follicle + 2-3 others under 10 on the right. LH 4.06

12/1 - estrogen 439. 9.3mm, 7.6mm measured follicles + 4-6 under 10mm on the right. LH 1.76

12/3 - estrogen 493. LH 1.86

12/4 - estrogen 468. LH still 1 point something. 8.7mm, 9.9mm, 9.2mm + 2-3 under 10mm on the right

12/5 - don’t have estrogen or LH yet but I heard when they were measuring follicles they measured two - one at 7 and one at 8 and then said plus some others on the right. Should I be concerned they’re smaller than yesterday? Am I not responding? When I saw my doctor yesterday he sounded positive but I saw a different doctor today who didn’t tell me much

If anyone specifically goes to weill cornell, I’m seeing dr Irani who measured them as larger and saw de reichman today (and at baseline) who measured them as smaller today. Not sure if this type of variation is common

Thanks!
