Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
After rupturing the ovum stays available for 36 hours for fertilization. It is impossible to say when the follicle ruptured. But we must use the 36 hours window to help the sperm meet the ovum. Most of the time the follicle is ruptured already when IUI is done as HCG is given to rupture it only. So do not think so much about it. Get the IUI and wait.

My best wishes are with you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nilaj Kumar Bagde
