Is Follicle In The Ovary Dangerous?

Hi, I got a full abdominal scan today and the report says that I have a permanent follicle in my left ovary 12mmx12mm. When the radiologist asked my last day of menstruation I could not tell her an exact date. Is this dangerous. Can I get pregnant again?

Hello!
Thanks for your query.
Ovarial follicular presence show that you are ovulating .
Calculating that ovarial follicle increases with 1 mm per day until become 20 mm ,then it ruptured.
Hence you should have protected intercourse after 4-5 days ,to wait for ovulation occurred.

Take care
