Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Sonography is not harmful. You are probably getting follicular monitoring scan done. This is a procedure where the doctor will visualise your ovaries on 5 days during the probable time of ovulation. This shows any dominant follicles in the ovaries and its increase in size leading to ovulation. If ovulation is not taking place then you may need to take medications to stimulate ovulation.
