When embarking on the path to parenthood, every step counts. One of the most crucial components of fertility treatments is follicular monitoring, a process that tracks the growth and development of ovarian follicles. This precise monitoring helps optimize fertility treatments such as IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) and IVF (In Vitro Fertilization). Adam and Eve Fertility Centre, renowned as a leader in reproductive health, excels in offering advanced follicular monitoring, making it a trusted choice for individuals and couples on their fertility journey.
What is Follicular Monitoring?
It involves the use of ultrasound to track the development of ovarian follicles. These follicles house the eggs that are released during ovulation. By observing their growth, doctors can predict ovulation timing and adjust fertility treatments accordingly, increasing the chances of conception. This non-invasive procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals undergoing fertility treatments, as it provides detailed insights into the reproductive cycle and ensures that treatments are aligned with the patient’s ovulatory phase.Why is Follicular Monitoring Important?
- Precise Timing of Ovulation: Knowing the exact time of ovulation helps in scheduling procedures like IUI or IVF for maximum success.
- Monitoring Treatment Response: For those undergoing ovarian stimulation, it ensures the ovaries are responding well to medications without overstimulation.
- Customized Treatment Plans: By understanding each patient’s unique cycle, doctors can create tailored treatment plans.
The Follicular Monitoring Process
At Adam and Eve Fertility Centre, the process is conducted with utmost precision and care. Here’s what it typically involves:- Baseline Ultrasound Conducted at the start of the menstrual cycle, this scan assesses the ovaries and uterine lining to establish a baseline for monitoring.
- Tracking Follicular Growth Starting from the 9th or 10th day of the cycle, ultrasounds are performed every few days to measure follicle size and monitor their growth.
- Determining Ovulation Once the dominant follicle reaches the optimal size (18-24mm), doctors predict ovulation and schedule procedures accordingly.
- Post-Ovulation Check Additional scans may be done to confirm ovulation and assess the uterine lining’s readiness for implantation.
