Is It Possible To Get Pregnant Without Follicle Rupture?

I am on D 17 and i got my scan done on D 14 which showed right ovary folicle 23mm and left 27mm..doc said that folicle will not rupture this cycle as it has become too big..is it possible to get pregnant even if the folicle doesnt rupture? Can it rupture later than D 17?

Hi ,
Thanks for writing to HCM .

You can't become pregnant if your follicle is not ruptured. When follicle rupture the egg is relaesed which gets fertilized by sperm.

Yes follicle can rupture after day 17. But generally I wont allow follicle to grow till that size. Once the follicle size is more then 19mm I give my patients hcg injection which help in rupture of follicle.

You can discuss this with your doctor either for this cycle or for next. I suggest you to follow up this enlarged follicles which may become cyst and need to rupture them laparoscopically . Some regress themself and some rupture.

From next cycle I suggest you to get follicular study starting from day 9 and alternative days . So that follicles won't become too large.

Hope I have been helpful .

Regards
