How many times should an ultrasound be used to monitor ovulation?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How many times do you need to take an ultrasound to check ovulation?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Based on your situation, you can have an ultrasound to monitor the follicle around the 12th day of your menstrual cycle. The specific timing for subsequent measurements, the number of times needed, and other details will depend on the development and size of the follicle.
Lack of galactorrhea could be due to high prolactin levels, but this needs to be confirmed through specific tests. Generally, if prolactin levels are high, it is recommended to undergo a pituitary gland examination to check for a pituitary tumor. If there is no tumor, medication can be used for treatment.
