Follicular
Study-First step in female infertility investigations
When
a Gynaecologist is investigating a female patient for infertility, Follicular
study is one of the first line investigations that are prescribed.
Female
fertility cycle is very unique .A normal fertile woman menstruates once in a month.
Once
the menstrual cycle is over, growth and maturation of ova starts. Somewhere in
the middle of the cycle around 14th -16th day, ovulation
occurs and released ova is picked up by Fallopian tube and is ready to be
fertilized by sperm , hence occurs origin of life.
Follicular
study is an ultrasonographic investigation done serially every 2nd
or 3rd day starting generally from Day 6 or 8 of menstrual cycle.
This study is deemed complete once it has detected ovulation.
Clinical
importance lies in the fact that once Gynaecologist knows that ovulation has
occurred,further treatment to help her conceive can be offered eg-timed
intercourse, IUI-Intra uterine insemination.
