Suggest Treatment For Difficulty In Conceiving

I have had an ultrasound many times and my ovaries show that neither are dominant. Both the left and right share the responsibility pretty evenly...there has been two ultrasounds, at different months, that show 16 follicles in one ovary and 3 in the other.
Likely PCOS
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Since you are having difficulty in conceiving, no dominant follicle in the ovaries, multiple small follicles in both the ovaries and increased LH levels for more days in a cycle (LH is detected in ovulation kits)- all these factors are suggestive of the fact that you are having polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
PCOS is a disease of hormonal imbalance in which there is elevated LH, multiple follicles in the ovaries, no dominant follicle and irregular or no ovulation at all.
In this scenario, you should be given ovulation induction drugs to assist ovulation and increase the chances of conception.
You should consult an infertility specialist for proper treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.

In Australia is it restrictive to how many sperm is used for the insemination process? As in they only place 3 single sperms or do they release the amount of sperm that my partner would usually release on ejaculation during sex?
What are the reasons my eggs arent maturing? Is it because there are too many eggs to grow at once or am I not getting enough hormone FSH? Because this would contradict my FSH blood test results...all extremely low...never having passed a level of 5.
Can lead to multiple pregnancy
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Ovulation induction by fertility drugs can very well lead to multiple pregnancy.
In Insemination process, processed semen is injected in the uterus, whole of it is injected and not 2-3 sperms.
PCOS is a disorder in which the eggs do not mature due to hormonal imbalance of insulin, testosterone and LH.
It has nothing to do with FSH levels.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
