follicular study is done to see the no. growth and rupture of follicles. from 9th day of mc to 14-15 day of cycle .on altenate day vaginal sonography is done to see the endometrial thickness and largest follicle size is measured.in a given menstrual cycle growing few follicles are seen in one ovary. a single follicle reaches to about 23-28mm by 14thday of mc.which in normal case rupture in next 1-2 days.and so in next sonography that largest follicle remains missing,instead irregular struture called carpous luteum is seen which remains there, after discharge of ovum .this is called ovulation. endometrium also get thicker by 14th day to about 14-6mm. in your case full study should be done.
i hope this clears to learn about follicular study which if normal will help in concieving.
