What to do if the follicles are too large and not discharged

An oversized follicle is an abnormal condition. In this case, the follicle is not easy to be discharged from the body. Generally speaking, there is a period of ovulation promotion for follicles. Oversized follicles should be taken seriously. However, we can solve this problem in many ways, such as some Chinese and Western medicine therapies. The dominant follicle has a certain size range. So what should we do if the follicle is too large and cannot be discharged?

1. Reduce weight: This method mainly reduces diet and increases exercise to achieve the goal of reducing weight.

2. Reduce androgen secretion: This method mainly uses targeted drugs to inhibit the secretion of gonadotropin by the pituitary gland, and then increases the synthesis of sex hormone binding protein in the liver, which can effectively reduce free androgen.

Follicles larger than 18mm are considered dominant follicles and can be fertilized if released. When a normal follicle grows to 18×19mm and the endometrium is 8mm thick, it is time for ovulation. But it should be noted that the size of the follicle when it is discharged varies from person to person. If you find that the follicle is larger than 1.8, you can test it every day. The daily growth rate of the follicle is 1-3mm. Pregnant mothers can go to the hospital for testing depending on the situation.

The growth from primary follicle to mature follicle can be divided into 8 levels. It takes a total of 10 days from the 6th level follicle to the 8th level follicle, which is exactly the follicular phase in a menstrual cycle. Starting from 16mm, after another 2-3 days, it will develop into a 20mm follicle and then be discharged.

The pregnancy rate is relatively high when the follicles are between 18-25mm. Conception can only occur when the follicles are mature and ruptured. You can go to the hospital for an ultrasound in 3 days to see if the follicle has ruptured. If it has, that is the best time to have sex.
