When is the best time to measure the follicle?

Patient's question:

What is the best time to test for follicles?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if your menstrual cycle is regular and about 28 days long, you can visit for follicle monitoring on the 9th to 11th day of your period. Each month, a woman typically releases only one mature egg. Generally, if the follicle is larger than 2.0mm, it is considered mature. The standard diameter of a mature follicle is between 1.8 and 2.5mm. A mature follicle usually releases within one to two days, and the released egg can survive for about 2 days. An excessively large or small follicle is not conducive to normal ovulation.
