What Could Cause Delay In Ovulation?
Hello... My Qs. is about ovulation. I got sonography done to understand the time when I ovulate. Last month, it happened on day 12th of my cycle. This time, it is 14th day of the cycle, and follicle size is 21mm but no ovulation has happened yet.... So I am worried, why it is taking so long this time.. Can anyone help me to understand

Hello,
Welcome to HCM
Ovulation occurs approximately around 14th day of periods in 28 days regular cycle.No need to worry.It can occur from anywhere along 11th day to 16th days.Its normal variation.
Follicle size varies from 18-24 mm before it ruptures to release egg.so better wait for one to two days.
Hope you are happy with the answer
Thank you
