Have PCOS, Follicles. Was On Follsitim And Ovidrac. Help?

great work docs. Just read the articles. I had a scan ( my 12th day after menstruation ) on Friday for pcos and was on follsitim. Doctor said i have three follicles all more than 1.9cm gave an ovidrac shot as well. Could you tell me how long it will take to ovulate and is every intercourse better or once in two days?Thanks a bunch

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Follsitim is to stimulate development of follicles ready for egg to ovulate, ovidac is hormonal injection used to enhance ovulation - N in a regular 28 d cycle ovulation occurs around 14 days before next period is due
Ovidac injection has maximal efficacy within 12-36 hours of the shot
So presuming N cycle length - you may be able to predict roughly day of ovulation & it is advisable to have relation 3 days before & 4 days after the day of ovulation to have successful conception.
Regarding frequency of intercourse it is better to have it every other day just to avoid getting too stressed re the whole process of conception failure.
Hope this is helpful
