Ultrasound Follicular Study

5000+ scans done & counting

Ultrasound Follicular Study is an essential procedure primarily utilized in the monitoring and evaluation of a woman’s ovarian follicles. The ovarian follicles are small sacs that contain the immature eggs in the ovaries. This procedure aids in determining the exact period of ovulation, which is crucial for women seeking to conceive or undergoing fertility treatments.

The study uses ultrasound imaging to visualize the ovaries and the growth and development of the follicles. It helps to ascertain if the eggs housed in the follicles are maturing as they should and whether the lining of the uterus is apt for implantation. By identifying the most fertile days in the menstrual cycle, the follicular study greatly assists in family planning and infertility treatments.
