This helps plan the timing of IVF or intercourse such that the <strong>chances of a successful pregnancy increase<\/strong>. It helps assess the size and number of ovarian follicles (small fluid-filled sacs that contain eggs). This is thus a non-invasive test that helps<strong> evaluate fertility in females.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this, you may have to undergo multiple scans during your menstrual cycle to pinpoint the date of ovulation. These scans are vaginal and can last 10-20 minutes. The<strong> price of a USG Follicular study<\/strong> ranges between <strong>Rs. 1200 to Rs. 2400.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your doctor may recommend this test if you have the following symptoms-&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Irregular menstrual cycles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Difficulty getting pregnant (Infertility)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hormonal imbalances<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes or vaginal dryness.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"783\" src=\"https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/USG-Follicular-Study-INTRO-1-1024x783.jpg\" alt=\"USG Follicular Study Purpose\" class=\"wp-image-5855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/USG-Follicular-Study-INTRO-1-1024x783.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/USG-Follicular-Study-INTRO-1-412x315.jpg 412w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/USG-Follicular-Study-INTRO-1-768x587.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/USG-Follicular-Study-INTRO-1-595x455.jpg 595w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/USG-Follicular-Study-INTRO-1.jpg 1412w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:34px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">USG Follicular Study Test Details in Brief<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#e7f5fe\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Also Known As<\/strong><\/td><td>Ovarian Follicle Tracking, Follicular Ultrasound, Fertility Ultrasound, Ovarian Reserve Testing, Ovarian Stimulation Monitoring<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Purpose<\/strong><\/td><td>To determine the timing of ovulation, assess the quality of eggs, and monitor the progress of fertility treatments<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Preparation<\/strong><\/td><td>No special preparation is required. <\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Fasting<\/strong><\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Reporting Time<\/strong><\/td><td>&lt;24 Hrs.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Cost<\/strong><\/td><td>Rs. 1200 to Rs. 2400<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cost\">USG Follicular Study Test Price<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A doctor can recommend either a single-day USG follicular study or a complete study. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li> In a single-day study, the doctor will conduct a scan on one particular day during the mensural cycle as per prescribing doctor&#8217;s recommendation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>During the Complete study, the USG follicular scan will be done 5-6 times during a mensural cycle. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, the price depends on the type of follicular study your doctor has recommended.

Follicles are small fluid-filled sacs containing eggs. These develop and mature in the ovaries. During a menstrual cycle, a group of follicles begins to mature and grow in the ovaries. One of these follicles will eventually become dominant and release an egg during ovulation. The other follicles will stop growing and eventually dissolve. Follicles also produce hormones, including estrogen.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Image_of_an_Ovary-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Anatomy of the Female Reproductive System\" class=\"wp-image-5853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Image_of_an_Ovary-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Image_of_an_Ovary-560x315.jpg 560w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Image_of_an_Ovary-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Image_of_an_Ovary-595x335.jpg 595w, https:\/\/bookmerilab.com\/tests\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Image_of_an_Ovary.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/0\/05\/Image_of_an_Ovary_-_English.jpg\">Source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:33px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"preparation\">Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No special prepararation is required.

The procedure is considered safe and noninvasive.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1674548797601\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Who needs a follicular study ultrasound?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">A follicular study ultrasound may be recommended for individuals or couples who are experiencing infertility or recurrent miscarriages, or who are planning to undergo fertility treatment such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). It may also be recommended for individuals with hormonal imbalances or disorders, or for women taking fertility medications<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1674548956946\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Which day is best for a follicle ultrasound<\/strong>?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">A follicular study ultrasound is usually performed during the early or mid-follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, which is the first half of the cycle before ovulation. This is typically the time when the follicles in the ovaries are actively growing and developing.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1674551155382\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can follicular studies confirm PCOS?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The ultrasound may show enlarged ovaries with multiple small cysts, which can be a sign of PCOS. However, it is important to note that the diagnosis of PCOS is based on a combination of clinical findings and laboratory tests, and a follicular study ultrasound alone is not sufficient to confirm the diagnosis.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1767608995699\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>What is the cost of a follicular study test?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">A follicular study test in India is priced between \u20b91,200 and \u20b92,400, with the variation mainly due to the area, clinic, and the number of scans required.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1767609077356\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How do you prepare for a follicular ultrasound?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The amount of preparation is very little. In case of a transabdominal scan, the doctor may request that you have a full bladder by drinking some water.
