Posted on Thu, 9 Apr 2015
Question: I have regular periods. 30 days cycle mostly. I am having my folicular monitoring and this is the study:
Day 11 - Left ovary - 8.2 mm, Right ovary - MSF, EM - 7 mm
Day 13 - LO - 9.3 mm, RO - MSF, EM - 7mm
Day 16 - LO - 8.2 mm, RO - 7 mm, EM - 8.2
Day 19 - LO - 8.2 mm, RO - 12mm, EM - 8.2

I never have delayed periods. What are the chances for my folicle to reach 18mm and to get pregnant

Brief Answer:
Please repeat follicular scan afte one week

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns about follicular growth scan.

I still did not understand why were you put for follicular monitoring scans if you have regular periods. Why did the treating Obstetrician have the doubt that the follicle is not reaching the size?

Following is my reply:

1. There is delayed follicular growth .

2. It is strange to see that follicle has not grown though your cycles are regular.

3. This cycle you might have delayed ovulation. Please repeat the scan after one week. Follicle might reach 18 mm after one week.

I hope your doubt is clarified. Let me know if you wish any other information.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya
