Thanks for posting your query to healthcaremagic.com.
According to the report mentioned above you have delayed cycles because even on the 20th day you have not ovulated. The 22mm follicle in the left ovary is a dominant follicle and if ruptured you have high chances of fertilization. The endometrial thickness should normally be above 8 mm and triple layered. Your endometrium is 8.5 mm but is not triple layered. It probably means that fertilization would not be a problem but implantation of the fertilized ovum could be a problem if the endometrium is not properly primed. However you should continue to have sexual intercourse probably for a few more days and repeat the follicular study every 2 days till rupture of the follicle has occurred. In this situation the chances of you getting pregnant may not be high but it is probable that you may get pregnant.
You need to wait and hope that you miss your next period

I hope that answers your query.

Thank You
