Follicular follow-up ultrasound

The ultrasound of the follicular count is performed according to the same procedures as theultrasound of the ovarian reserve balance.

This is an ultrasound that is done to precisely monitor the growth of follicles. These small bags grow day after day, and when one of them reaches a certain size, it is ready to release an egg.

This ultrasound makes it possible to properly synchronize certain treatments, such as insemination or IVF.

It also measures the endometrium, the inner layer of the uterus, which must be well prepared to receive an embryo.
