Hi

Physiologic studies suggest that ovulation occurs anywhere from 24 to 56 hours after the onset of the LH surge, with a mean time of 32 hours. After an injection of hCG, follicle rupture has been reported to occur anywhere from 36 to 48 hours later.

Eggs are mature and can float free from about 34 hours after hCG, giving a four-hour window for egg retrieval, which is scheduled 36 hours after the hCG injection

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards
