Brief Answer:
Generally follicular size is up to 20 mm at the time of ovulation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello

7 mm follicle may be a non dominant one.Generally follicular size is up to 20 mm at the time of ovulation.
You may need follicular study in next cycle and medicines may be needed for follicular growth and ovulation.
Metformin is used in PCOD.It regulate menstrual cycle and causes ovulation.You shouldn't use it without clinical evaluation.

I suggest for proper clinical evaluation and you may need close monitoring of follicles in next cycle.

Get well soon.
Hope I have answered your question.

Brief Answer:
Ovulation occurs 14 days before next expected period.

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Ovulation occurs 14 days before next expected period.As you had last period on XXXXXXX 24,so next expected period will be on july 25 if it is regular.So,expected ovulation will be on july 11 i,e today.

Besides other factors,vitamin B6 also plays important role in pregnancy.It increases fertility rate and reduces chances of miscarriage.
You can take it.

There are many medicines that stimulates ovulation like clomiphene citrate etc.
Menstruation every month doesn't confirm ovulation in every month.Menstruation may be anovulatory i,e without ovum.
It is difficult to predict that 7 mm ovum will further develop or not.It need monitoring and it is called as follicular study.You may need it.

Candida infection is a curable condition caused due to fungus.Different medicines are used for its treatment and dose varies accordingly.
Candida infection may cause miscarriage in some females.

Get well soon.
