Brief Answer:
the size of follicles are small for day 10..

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for contacting health care magic.

After going through the follicular study of your day 10 scan , the follicle size on day 10 for both the ovaries is less than 10mm which is inadequate growth considering last time you had ovulation by day 15 ( collapsed follicle on day 16).

ovulation occurs in a healthy follicle once it reaches 20-22mm size . In your case , you would have to be placed under ovulation inducing drugs by your gynaecologist.
