Is Follicular Study Required In My Case?
I am Archana from Mumbai, I had a missed abortion three months back. Thyroid level was high - 9.6. Now I want to plan. My gynec has advised me to do follicular study and take fertomid 50mg (2 tab daily for 5 days). My periods are regular. thyroid is also within range. Is follicle study required in my case?

Hi Mrs Archana,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic. I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns.
Since you had a pregnancy recently, it is clear that you do not have any problem in getting pregnant. Happy to know that your thyroid hormones are in the normal range. I am of the opinion that there is no need to take fertomid or have follicular study now. Give yourself time. You will conceive.
To increase your chances of conception maintain normal BMI, quit smoking (if you're a smoker) and have intercourse at least three to four times in a week.
Do take a tablet of folic acid daily.
I hope this is helpful.
If you have any further concerns do contact me through Healthcare Magic.
Best wishes
Dr Rama
