Can you get pregnant without dominant follicles?

Patient's question:

All symptoms: My last menstrual period was on August 3rd, and my menstrual cycle is 26 days. On the 13th, I had an ultrasound for ovulation and found no dominant follicle in the right ovary, and the left ovary was undetectable. The doctor asked me to come back for another ovulation ultrasound on the 15th. However, the 15th is already the 14th day before the next period. Will it be too late? Is there a possibility of pregnancy if I have intercourse now? Do I still need to have an ultrasound? Can I have it done on the 14th?
Onset time and cause: Treatment status:
Help needed: I really want to know if it's possible to get pregnant in this situation. Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to what you mentioned, this is just a problem of individual development, which means that the development of follicles can be fast or slow, and it has little to do with the baby's gender. Therefore, relying on this situation to judge the gender of the fetus is unreliable. After taking the fertility pills, they promote the development and growth of follicles, from the dominant follicle to ovulation, very quickly. Since you are already pregnant, I suggest you have regular follow-up check-ups. Folic acid should be taken until the third month of pregnancy. Ovulation generally occurs around 14 days before the next menstrual period. The chances of pregnancy are higher around the time of ovulation. If your menstrual cycle is regular, ovulation is likely around January 31st. On February 2nd, if there were no dominant follicles, it might be that ovulation has already occurred. On the 6th, if you have intercourse with external ejaculation, you will not get pregnant.
