Hello Ayesha,
Well, you have two dominant follicles of good sizes on either ovary .
But as per our protocol , generally we used to wait for spontaneous rupture by body's own mechanism till 11 th day and if not , then use HUCOG.
Regarding the chances, the success rates in IUI is multifactorial and depends on many male and female factors. success rates varies from 15 to 30 % in various institutions.
Good luck

General & Family Physician Dr. Das Arindam's  Response
Hello, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das
Firstly, for a ovum to get ruptured from a follicle, the follicle should reach minimum 20 mm in size.
In your case, three follicles are developing in both the ovaries. Two of them will reach their maturity and will produce a normal ovum within 2-3 days.
If you take the HCG the process will be more smooth.
So, overall, there is high chance of conceiving if all are normal till the last.
Wish you all the best.
Regards.
