possible explanation to more than one follicle in aan ovary with similar big size is a condition called PCOS.
but the diagnosis of POF that was made must not be correct then
having a follicle without ovulation is possible in PCOS
you may ovulate twice a month or two ova can get released in a single cycle in some women rarely
if you are pregnant , after ovulation the site of follicle will have corpus luteum not a follicle
plz answer these if u can
age?
children?
prior cycles if regular or not?
any hormonal or non hormonal medicines taken?
oher findings in ur scan?
