Can Body Naturally Ovulate Without Having The Hgc Injection During Superovulation?
Hello, I am a 36 year old woman, 5ft 3 and about 9 1/2 stone. Over the past few years I have been trying to conceive with my husband with no result. We have recently just started our first cycle of superovulation and I just had a question to ask. During superovulation can your body naturally ovulate without having the hgc injection. It's just i was due to take the injection and i felt some pains as though i was starting to ovulate. I have now taken the injection and i am still feeling the pains. Does this mean i might be ovulating now (at my normal time) and not 36 hours or so after the injection was taken. It's just that i want to get the timing right and as it is a bank holiday weekend i am not able to ask my clinic for a couple of days. If this is the case and i am ovulating now, how long do i have in order to fertilise the egg. Thank you
Hi In many cases of ovulation induction we don't even prescribe Hcg injection as most women ovulate even without it. The reason the injection is prescribed is to make sure that you ovulate. So it is very much possible that you ovulated before the injection. It is generally said after ovulation the egg remains fertile for 24 hrs.
Let me know if you have any other queries. Thanks
