Is The Follicle Size Of 26 Likely To Be Fertilized?

Hi, I am an egg freezer. I have 4 follicles being tracked (26, 22, 19.5 and 18...... there are also some smaller ones). Triggering tonight. My question is: do follicles become over mature? Meaning...is the follicle at size 26 likely to be fertilizable, or is it too big/over the hill? I m on antagonist protocol (femara, menopur, ganirelix).

Hello,yes follicles do get overmature and this 26 mm one might not yield any egg after trigger, but dont get disheartened as only one egg is enough to serve the purpose
