Irregular Periods. Follicular Scanning Shows Something Only 4mm, Which Is Supposed To Be 8 Mm. Is It Possible To Conceive?

First of all i am not from medical background. I am trying to conceive a baby and i did my follicular scaning to know whether the egg has been released or not. It is shown, that my (i dont know what is that), it is just 4mm, it is supposed to be 8 mm. (What is that) SO my concern is, will i be able to conceive a baby. I also do not have my regular periods. I will get it after every 40 days but not 30 days so what is the solution for this problem. I am worried.

Hello

A mature follicle is one that contains an ovum. Ovum comes out of the follicle when it attains a size of about 18 to 20mm.

Your have to regularise your periods .Cyclical pills may help you. Using ovulation inducing drugs that brings out a good follicular size and ovulation may be helpful to you in a great way.

Hello
welcome to health care magic.
Madam follicular size depends on estrogen,progestrone..these in turn are in the control of thyroid and prolactin hormones..1st check your hormone status..depending on their levels,you need the treatment to normalise the levels..
After that you may conceive..
Hope you understand my suggestion
Thank you
